Flowers
Flowers for the heavy hearted
Give em flowers
Digging roses out the garden
Give em flowers
Only love em when departed
Give em flowers
Flowers to the heavy hearted
Give em flowers
My friend flew high same age his mom died
His pops pursued crime and did alot of time
All that shit is a sign from the other side
Cause the night he died left two toddlers behind
His brother got locked up
Father like son actions
With a family cycle the time just run backwards
Bonded over baseball when we were scrappers
Reconnected spoke about our dreams of being rappers
No one had patience for him or care for factors
Of a child with no guidance, mental was hyperactive
Adopted by his grandparents: couldn't keep up
Rolling stone turned to gangs really looking for love
And acceptance but then we lost connection
After I moved out of state
Barely spoke through text message
Flowers
Flowers for the heavy hearted
Give em flowers
Digging roses out the garden
Give em flowers
Only love em when departed
Give em flowers
Flowers to the heavy hearted
Give em flowers
After some time you reached out to my mom
Sending voice messages
And you were weeping and crying
Sounded scared on the line
Begging to get a dime
But I told her not to respond
I just felt like you were lying
Heart strings pulled on
Guilting her you were trying
We ain't spoke in some years at this point I'm thinking five
Used to being broke
Funds a limited supply
Felt I needed to protect her looking back I think I'm wrong
You were truly scared no family to fall back on
Truly I'm spoiled in the love you never had home
Came with conditions and the shit didn't last long
Looked in the wrong places in pills and alcohol
Wish I gave you your flowers when you were here and not gone but
Regardless should've done this from the start
Love you dog rest in peace
Here's flowers for your heavy heart
