Rose Colored Glasses
[Intro]
Yeah
Rose colored glasses
Rose…rose
Yeah
[Verse 1]
You said we needed to talk
You blindsided me
This can’t be over girl
Why you saying bye to me?
Wait, who you leaving me for?
Girl don’t you walk out that door
Wish I could say this was a clean breakup
But I left you unimpressed and I left this pent-up aggression in my body
I embody depression and distress
Ayo, yesterday you told me you thought I was the best
Ayo, yesterday you loved me today I’m just a pest
Damn
[Chorus]
Rose colored glasses
These rose colored glasses
Will time heal my wounds?
I flip hourglasses in hopes of making time go faster
But it’s slow as molasses
And I know I romanticize you but I just can’t help it
‘Cause of these rose colored glasses
These rose colored glasses
Will time heal my wounds?
I flip hourglasses in hopes of making time go faster
But it’s slow as molasses
And I know I romanticize you but I just can’t help it girl
[Verse 2]
Damn, can’t we just give it another chance girl?
I know you miss us in the basement where we used to dance girl
Like damn girl
Why you being so cold?
Where’s this coming from?
We were doing so well together
Just like the moon and sun
You’re the moody one and I’m the one appeasing you
I’m not wrong
I always paid attention on my p’s and q’s
Always asking you how you’re doing
You never asked me though
But I’m not thinking ‘bout that now
Could you pass me those
[Chorus]
Rose colored glasses?
Those rose colored glasses
Will time heal my wounds?
I flip hourglasses in hopes of making time go faster
But it’s slow as molasses
And I know I romanticize you but I just can’t help it
‘Cause of these rose colored glasses
These rose colored glasses
Will time heal my wounds?
I flip hourglasses in hopes of making time go faster
But it’s slow as molasses
And I know I romanticize you but I just can’t help it girl
[Bridge]
Girl, we must’ve been a train wreck, right? (right?)
That’s what everyone’s telling me so it must be true
Girl, we must’ve been a train wreck, right? (right?)
Funny, the more I think about it, it must be true (is that right?)
Girl, we must’ve been a train wreck, right? (right?)
If I tell myself enough then that’ll be the truth
But I just can’t stop thinking ‘bout you (no, I can’t)
Too bad I’m looking at my life through
[Chorus]
Rose colored glasses
Through rose colored glasses
Will time heal my wounds?
I flip hourglasses in hopes of making time go faster
But it’s slow as molasses
And I know I romanticize you but I just can’t help it
‘Cause of these rose colored glasses
These rose colored glasses
Will time heal my wounds?
I flip hourglasses in hopes of making time go faster
But it’s slow as molasses
And I know I romanticize you but I just can’t help it girl
[Outro]
Rose…aye, aye
Aye, rose colored glasses
Aye
The grass is always greener on the other side
Aye…aye
Shoutout to OG Vinchenzo
[Interlude]
Hey Tyree, it’s Mom
I see that I missed a call from you
I’m actually on my way home from work
And was just trying you back
I’ll check and see if you left me a voicemail
