Lyrics

[00:00.470] If you're cool with it, right,
[00:02.250] I need you to go back to remembering that you're a poet
[00:05.310] Who's daughter, who's daughter's stage?on that
[00:09.600] I know her, I know her by her name
[00:13.110] Who's daughter, who's daughter's on that stage?
[00:16.060] She's a queen, now watch her
[00:17.800] She's drowning ace of spades
[00:20.550] She dances, and she dances, and she drops it
[00:23.500] The crowd is yelling pop it, there's a reason she can't stop it
[00:27.720] She dances, and she dances, and she pops it
[00:30.720] The crowd is yelling drop it, there's a reason stop itshe can't
[00:34.280] This a
[00:34.850] Funeral, death of your innocence
[00:36.270] Little Lily grown up, barely legitimate
[00:37.740] All these niggas in here got you scared to be in
[00:39.470] So you just stand there, dance til you temperate
[00:41.410] Dance til you in a wick
[00:42.520] Dance til you in a wick
[00:43.340] You don't feel the flame now, dance to rekindle it
[00:44.960] Ran backstage to the bump in the bathroom
[00:46.490] Kiss a few strangers and dance til you feeling it
[00:48.530] And yours keep dropping to the floor
[00:52.550] Whatever you moved on to, you can let it go
[00:57.330] And just keep dancing on the stage
[00:59.560] Instead of throwing ones it's white lilies to her face
[01:03.170] Then she got me backstage like
[01:05.100] "Let me see your conscience
[01:06.950] I'll be over dancing at the table of contents"
[01:10.510] You can turn my pages
[01:12.130] All these pages are like wages
[01:13.910] And I would have quit so long
[01:15.790] But all the money I'll be making got me
[01:17.930] Dropping to the floor
[01:21.490] Whatever you moved on to, you can let it go
[01:25.090] She just keep dancing in my face
[01:28.610] Instead of throwing ones it's white lilies to the stage
[01:40.050] She lets go, says she has it under control
[01:44.380] I count slow, hoping that she'll divulge some more
[01:48.340] Cause she knows, everything a woman should know
[01:51.910] And I want, nothing but to see it up close
[01:55.820] And she keep saying "just grab it if you see what you like"
[01:59.480] And I keep asking if this is what you want with your life
[02:03.280] I find the flowers harden out in haunted houses
[02:06.980] They somehow escape the gardens and walked out
[02:09.620] into the concrete and now
[02:11.090] Everytime I see her she be walking to the pole
[02:14.560] Panties, bra, bra inside, dropping to the floor
[02:18.120] She climb up, up, up, up, hiding on the pole
[02:21.820] She walk out with all her precious petals gone and now
[02:26.920] We can find, roses with no petals in here
[02:30.210] We can find, lilies spray painted metal in here
[02:33.880] We can find, them dancing with the devil in here
[02:37.840] Those white lines and, those white lies
[02:56.920] Step off the stage and I'm back in a trance
[02:58.700] With you we're interstellar, I'm gassing your nebula
[03:00.580] All other flowers, they pale in comparison
[03:02.470] That's why my florist's hand's slowly caressing you
[03:04.510] One petals, two petals, back on the floor
[03:06.390] Touch me, then tease me, then back on your cloak
[03:08.220] Everything's seemingly Puerto Rico
[03:10.160] This worthless from verses was stirring your soul
[03:12.100] Swear I'm not putting you down, though
[03:14.070] I just hate seeing you drown, slow
[03:15.870] You say your mind frame is twisted and shit
[03:17.840] That your faith in humanity's ground floor
[03:19.720] I'm always one that say think on your own
[03:21.660] Free is the flower who rose from my home
[03:23.600] But I'd rather watch you be seated in power
[03:25.520] than steadily seeing you being dethroned
[03:27.510] I found the flowers being drowned in dirty water
[03:31.270] They somehow escape the farmers and are headed out
[03:35.590] to slaughter and now
[03:36.760] Everytime I see her she be walking to the pole
[03:38.850] Panties, bra, bra inside, dropping to the floor
[03:42.660] She climb up, up, up, up, hiding on the pole
[03:46.270] She walk out with all her precious petals gone and now
[03:51.510] We can find, roses with no petals in here
[03:54.560] We can find, lilies spray painted metal in here
[03:58.370] We can find, them dancing with the devil in here
[04:02.190] Those white lines and, those white lies
