Glow Of A Rose Lyrics - April Showers - Wyclef Jean

And if my life is like the dust 

Uh... that hides... the glow of a rose 

What good am I? 

(The glow of a rose) 

Heaven only knows 

() 

I was told no good deed goes unpunished 

So I'm sittin here thinkin, is my name tarnished? 

Public perception is everything 

Even the one call they suits, face the crucifixion 

So who am I? 

I got the bunch of kids that's ready to die (die die die) 

Like it launches on the other side (side side side) 

But I rather see a million march than see a million genocide 

But when you wake up, you take off 

You wanna get kicked up 

He got to see, no she ready sick up 

Look at his face, he got blood in his eyes 

The SWAT they pull up and put 3 in the side 

He's there before a G need a alibi 

Better yet he need a lawyer conquering on the side 

Down at the west side 

At the house, blue wearing black and they throwing up gang signs 

Don't it feel good to see all the gangs in the same place? 

We might have different colored flags but we the same race 

Mention the government with the same face 

75% incarcerate 

() 

And if my life is like the dust 

Uh... that hides... the glow of a rose 

What good am I? 

(Who am I?) 

Heaven only knows

I was told that my flesh will turn back to dust 

So while I'm laying on this bed there's a few things we should discuss 

I know I haven't been the best man 

But I was tempted in the garden of Eden by the serpent 

But I'm your man for mouth to mouth resuscitation 

And if you need blood, call me transfusion 

I'd rather be carried 6 than betray, this yo love so honest 

She looked in my eyes and say don't mistake my kindness for weakness 

Next day wake up and the music in the street 

Peer pressure to sniff cocaine, ecstasy, molly 

Sure I felt the sense for night trap then the devil's road 

And I got family member in rehab, tryna kick the habit in coke 

So when I said permanent and permanent permanent one 

That's 'cause I came from the ghetto, ain't a vision of one 

So sure you'd understand, you're my inspiration 

We gon live past cremation

Let me play the guitar like it's my last day on earth
