about

Flower is based on compatibility. Are we capable to grow together? Do we value the same morals and if we don’t, can we see each others point of view? We don’t realise how hard it is to grow a flower with the wrong soil, environment or surroundings, this is based upon people too.
The journey will be painful, you will shed blood and sometimes tears. Although this garden is full of thorns, I walk through it graciously to find my perfect flower.

lyrics

Lately my hearts been torn,
Walking through painful gardens

Bloodshed from all these thorns
All said was beg your pardon

I can not see myself,
Of one of fame or power

I must not know myself,
Just to get to your flower

Vrs1

I’ve been alone to core
Tired of shit
Tried to resist

You can’t be the blame no more
This will never stick
I’m pessimistic

I wonder why I’m not yours
Is it the, lack of the money bags
Or, could it be that I can’t relax

Or
I just push til we hit a lap
Realised that the car has been running flats

Uh,
Can’t feel if I’m not attached

Hook
Lately my hearts been torn,
Walking through painful gardens

Bloodshed from all these thorns
All said was beg your pardon

I can not see myself,
Of man of fame or power

I must not know myself,
Just to get to your flower

Vrs 2

Taking accountability, with unbalanced health
How can I be doing me, if I don’t know myself

Feet sinking into the soil, dropped the bouquet now I act like I don’t know you

Not the problem child, I’m the Goyo
Overwatered fantasies, now the flowers spoilt

We got problems we ignore it
if it’s the last pedal I got dibs so I can store it

Maybe to you it’s not important
Now my heart turned to blood orange

Hook

Alex Ford Verse

Busy bee I buzz like
Couple bud lights
Got me mistaken sunshine
With these club lights
Rose yelling what’s fly
As I a buzz by I really like your perfume But you uptight And then I saw this flower Stretching up high
whenever I’m around her
I’m such a tough guy I never was a coward But now I see why My only super powers Death by design
I wish to rewind Be cool and be kind For me and bee kind We lose what we find Ego and my pride In front of my eyes Instinct from behind Lash out and we die
Vocalist Freestyle outro

Liona Tatafu Act Like I never know ya, (Buhda Baa Buhdaa)
