[Intro]
If I finish the Hennessy
[Chorus]
A black rose
Morpheus'll come if I finish the Hennessy
And for you
I might push everything in my head aside
[Verse 1]
Don't worry (Don't worry)
Even if I fall asleep, even if I fall from the top, I'll stay your shining light (Oh)
I'm in the shadows, where obscurity rules over all
I closed the kid's bedroom, far from the nights where I dreamed of being where I am
And then, there's the poison
Running for power, I walk into the office, I only talk to the boss
Alone as if we were ten, ten as if we were a hundred, from January to December
Mafia, black tux, purple bills, investments in the Middle East
As long as we don't die in the Corvette when the comet burns out (When the comet burns out)
The young wolves took the corner back, time runs out, I'm in my thirties
I never really left or stayed for that matter, all this money weighs down the bag
Between two worlds, I don't know where to place myself, the kids are outside, if they shoot, it's to kill
You left without ever coming back, I never got used to it (Oh)
[Chorus]
A black rose
Morpheus'll come if I finish the Hennessy
And for you
I might push everything in my head aside (Yes)
[Post-Chorus]
I might push everything in my head aside
But bad news travels fast (Over here)
Might push everything in my head aside
For this one spark (In your eyes)
[Verse 2]
The iron, we live by it, die by it, outside, you can feel its grip
The sky is gray, but sometimes blue, thinking about those that left kills me too
How do we do it? We live with it; how do we know? We fall and then
We understand, we grow up, we study, I don't see you anymore, but there are things I need to say
We never beg, we go rob, I blame the older kids that made me dream with their convertibles
Their mics and their Cartier glasses, twelve years old, we wanted cash and the rockstar life
I'm sad, I forget why I'm here, I remember once I look up to the sky (Oh)
[Chorus]
A black rose
Morpheus'll come if I finish the Hennessy
And for you
I might push everything in my head aside
[Post-Chorus]
I might push everything in my head aside
But bad news travels fast (Over here)
Might push everything in my head aside
For this one spark (In your eyes)
