The Rose That Grew From Concrete

“Did u hear about the rose that grew from a crack in the concrete?
Proving nature’s laws wrong it learned how to walk without having feet
Funny it seems but by keeping its dreams it learned 2 breathe fresh air
Long live the rose that grew from concrete when no one else cared!”
-Tupac Shakur
I wanna be that rose
That rose that grew through the all the hurt and pain
Through all the tears and rain

All my life, my mama tried her best to raise me right
Now that im out from under her protection and on my own,
I wanna be that rose

The rose that will not be kept down by society
Kept away from my goals, my dreams because of what you may think of me, and how sterotypes describe how a young African American woman is supposed to act
With the help of my mother who has more than enough courage,
I had enough courage to go through what I’ve been through and what im still going through
I will gain more and become that rose
“Wait on the Lord:be of good courage, and he shall strenghten thine heart:wait, I say on the Lord”
-Psalms 27:14

I wanna be the rose
The rose that grew from concrete
The rose that decieded from a young age that I will accomplish all my goals and dreams

“Did u hear about the rose that grew from a crack in the concrete?
Proving nature’s laws wrong it learned how to walk without having feet
Funny it seems but by keeping its dreams it learned 2 breathe fresh air
Long live the rose that grew from concrete when no one else cared!”
-Tupac Shakur

Courage does not always roar.
Sometimes courage is the quiet voice at the end of the day sayin “I will try again tomorrow”

I will be,
THE ROSE THAT GREW FROM CONCRETE

I wanna grew so that 1 day i will live in bliss wit people that really love me and truly care about me
I WANNA BE THE ROSE
