[Verse 1]

It's 7:46, I'm at my window crushing love into this morning spliff

Just watching the doves & seagulls

White birds mingle and crowd my empty ledges, not absurd

We all float higher to heaven and feel the reverence

Inhale the essence, blow it away

Poner on many lessons learned creating God in a day

X's and O's, sketchings in my journals of prose

My margins screaming marginalized

I think I'm getting better with the eyes

Flip the pages, track the progress

We done came a ways from minimum wage and filling projects

Honest to goddess fam, we got this

Expose imposter prophets with a peace offering

Hoping it rinses the grease up off him, least we trying something

New solutions help the story unfold

Bystanders keep the story on hold

Find the roots in the soil of your soul

Dirty fingers in the earth grab hold

[Chorus]

Soul, growing like the rose in the snow

Yo I know, they told us that's impossible

That's just an obstacle like when your mind under matter

Defy yo own laws of nature

You can edit the chapter

Just let your soul, glow

Growing like the rose in the snow

Yo I know, they told us that's impossible

That's just an obstacle like when your mind under matter

Defy yo own laws of nature

You can edit the chapter

[Verse 2]

Look, mothers on their way to work

And brothers with them baggy shirts

And corner stores on neutral turf

And uncle drinking plastic bottle whiskey

Add the filthy and the few, it equals you

And homie with the golden tooth who always screaming from his stoop, yo

Hungry babies, bag ladies

Hipsters dressing like the 80's

Bang the music they would play me singing la-di-da-di

Fathers armor-all-ing tires on the big bodies

Sisters sneaking out the back to try and make the party

Gangstas out there telling jokes

And preachers tryna sell you hope

And plays craving loos smokes up in them stairways

And brothers marking on the wall cause it's fair game

And little sister writing poems on her birthday

We got this

We are the authors

The culture doctors

So we create the peace we want to see instead of profit

We can stop this

Generate some options

And let our heart take hold

[Chorus]

Soul, growing like the rose in the snow

Yo I know, they told us that's impossible

That's just an obstacle like when your mind under matter

Defy yo own laws of nature

You can edit the chapter

Just let your soul, glow

Growing like the rose in the snow

Yo I know, they told us that's impossible

That's just an obstacle like when your mind under matter

Defy yo own laws of nature

You can edit the chapter

[Chorus]

Soul, growing like the rose in the snow

Yo I know, they told us that's impossible

That's just an obstacle like when your mind under matter

Defy yo own laws of nature

You can edit the chapter

Just let your soul, glow

Growing like the rose in the snow

Yo I know, they told us that's impossible

That's just an obstacle like when your mind under matter

Defy yo own laws of nature

You can edit the chapter
