The Black Thorned Rose

~Time and Time again~ (x2)

Chorus (x2)

Does anybody have any will power

To combat this thing; bring down da tower

I'm askin about dis love and if anybody knows

Dat behind my secret garden man da black thorns grow

Kisses 'hind my tears, can't shake da feeling (aww)

Being analyptical, dey can't tell my feelings (naw)

Dey don't know the deal tho

Man, it's metaphysical

Verse

A double edged sword and a snake with two ends

Fighting 'gainst ur kiss and I know I can't win

A hand against my face plus da moon's eerie glow

The black thorned rose in my heart starts to show

The black petals fall from the stem (bro)

They don't know the deal tho

Man, it's metaphysical

I try to make this think last between us all night

But I'm givin up my soul and it ain't going right

(goes right into)

~Time and Time again~ (x2)

Chorus (x2)

Does anybody have any will power

To combat this thing; bring down da tower

I'm askin about dis love and if anybody knows

Dat behind my secret garden man da black thorns grow

Kisses 'hind mah tears, can't shake da feeling (aww)

Being analyptical, dey can't tell my feelings (naw)

Dey don't know the deal tho

Man, it's metaphysical

Verse 2

A fight between your care and a fight within yo past

Yo heaven fights my hell, yeah, it's deep in contrast

Tryna love you right, keep it on da down low

The black thorned rose is expressing sorrow

Black petals burnin on da ground yo

Dey don't know da deal tho

Man, it's metaphysical

The distance in our worlds, you know I know you know it's twisted

But I'ma hold u close, teach ya how ta listen

(cuz) we can fix it, time and time again, we'll win

Chorus 2 (x2)

Does anybody have any will power

To take my worst sweets, change them into sour

I'm saying dat I love this little thing that you do

If I hafta take an army down den I'll show you

Black rose in my hand; blood on the thorns (aww)

Bein in the reciprocal, it's hard to cut a deal with ya'll

They don't know I still fall

My love in in da physical

Verse 3

I'm feeling so emotional, I can't begin to say

The times you wanted me: I put my heart in da way

But now I gotta sing dis as long as I am there

Forever I will love you, forever I will care

Because our hard journies thru the fire and da sand

Because of your love then da black rose can stand

Renewed petals scooped up by a claw

Blockin life's most painful flow

Man, it's metaphysical

(goes right into)

~The rose is new tonight, The darkness in the light~

Chorus 2 (x2)

Does anybody have any will power

To take my worst sweets, change them into sour

I'm saying dat I love this little thing that you do

If I hafta take an army down den I'll show you

Black rose in my hand; blood on the thorns (aww)

Bein in the reciprocal, it's hard to cut a deal with ya'll

They don't know I still fall

My love in in da physical

Chorus 3 (x2)

Does anybody want to be my special flower

To heal dis broken heart with some magic powder

To be my fox wen I come home in da day

And at night she'll do that face that'll make me wanna stay

Does anybody know how to love an outcast

To take away the pain that I know we're gonna have

The black thorned rose is beautiful

It hurts her when she touch it (tho)

She don't know its real call

~Time and Time again, Free my soul from Sin~

*On 2^nd chorus 3 repeats, end as soon as "sin" is said.*
