J.Lately - Roses [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Verse 1: J.Lately]
I remember the look on her face
Lost her dad I remember the look on her face
After service she was scared to just look on her plate
Asking who the hell could even just cook on today
Who’s going next, who got a date with the afterlife
I look at the stars and wonder where they’re all at tonight
You must be out there, must be out there, blinded by all these city lights
Do my best to remember through all these busy nights
Mommy raised me, daddy did too
Evan loved me, family’s not an issue
If I can’t see the blessing in that fuck me
Said if I can’t see the blessing in that fuck me
Cause all my friends they weren't so lucky
Learned quick life isn’t just picket fences and puppys
But the grass would be greener if we just let it
Remember you know yourself keep trusting in where you’re headed and

[Hook: J.Lately & Grynch]
Don’t stop now, never give up
Don’t stop now, never give up
Take a second, smell the roses
Take a second, smell the roses

[Verse 2: Grynch]
I chill and take a deep breath and I exhale
Walking down the road of life see I’m just tryna excel
Along the way I took a couple steps failed and stood again
Proverbial middle finger to anyone who said I shouldn't win
Despite your past, you can find a better way today
Keep your light lit, don’t let it burn out, you gon’ fade away
Some people tell me John you’re so nostalgic
Thinking bout my youth sometimes I wanna get up out this
But the present’s a present, yeah that’s no lie
So is the future, getting started on this long ride
Yeah I’ll be alright, shifting as I’m going towards
No time for leaving goals ignored, I gotta keep the hope restored
If something’s wrong with your home
And the grass is greener on the other side shit then water your own
Keep all in the zone, don’t forsake potential and just let it rot
Keep it pushing til the wheels fall off and never stop

[Hook]
