R.o.s.e. Confessional Lyrics - Jessie J

I don't wanna make music anymore 

I said that out loud, wow 

Then I tried to stop and I didn't know how to 

Because it's impossible to walk away from true love 

Art, emotion, lyrics, music, feeling 

It's what I need to survive 

Man, that pain woke me up 

It's inside out, you know? 

I don't do this because I want to do it 

I do it because I have to 

I feel everything so deeply 

It's a blessing and a curse 

And I lost my passion to create 

To draw a line between business and art 

I'd fallen into darkness and allowed myself to be led by fear 

The fear was keeping other people happy 

Who didn't ever care about me 

And I was running deeper into someone and something I wasn't 

How did that become more important than my light? 

At the time I couldn't find that question 

I really thought it was more important 

I'd forgotten what made me special 

I was lost in what I stood for

And I was desperately trying to reach out for something, or someone, but I couldn't feel 

It didn't feel like there was anyone there 

But there was 

I was there 

Love was there 

I was there, I never left 

I just gave someone my magic, and they didn't look after it 

And in all the power I felt was lost 

It was never gone 

The one thing that started this whole journey could never be taken away from me 

My voice 

Photos 

I started to just, write words and sing 

Just like I did when I was sixteen 

No singles, no hooks, no pressure 

Just me, my feelings and being real 

And I started to feel it 

I started to feel it coming back 

The music I said I didn't wanna make 

Is what brought me back to life 

The anger, the honesty, the heartache 

The pain, the joy, the strength, the love 

It all happened for a reason 

The teaching and the lesson 

The words I kept coming back to 

Realisations 

Obsessions 

Sex 

And Empowerment 

R.O.S.E. 

For each letter, there is a word 

And for each word, is a song I will share with you 

I'm strong enough now to let you in 

To be real and to be free 

My mother is called Rose 

She gave me the gift of life 

A rose is at it's most beautiful when budding new 

I rose above the pain 

We give roses or a single rose as a gift for so many different feelings 

And this 

This is my gift to you
