Roses

[Intro]
See, today I'm havin' one of them days where
I just don't wanna be bothered
But it seems like you can't understand that
Because it's your way or no way
But check this out, it's my way today
And I'm really, really sick and tired
Of you steppin' into my little box
When I just don't wanna be bothered, okay?
So check this out

[Verse 1]
I've had my way
And I've had my share of ups and down
I've been in trouble
And I couldn't tell my ups from downs
I've been your baby
And I don't know why it don't seem like that no more
Welcome to this new definition of love

[Chorus]
It ain't all roses
Hey, flowers and posin'
Hey, said it ain't all candy
Hey, this love stuff is demanding
Hey, said it ain't all roses
Hey, flowers and posin'
Hey, said it ain't all candy
Hey, this love stuff is demanding
Hey, sometimes I need a hug

[Interlude]
See, you, you just, you just wanna
Really, really, really push all my buttons
'Cause you Mr. Right and I'm Mrs. Wrong
But right now today I feel like I'm
I'm the one gon' sing this song
I'ma be Mrs. Right today
It's my way or the highway
But with you, there's just no gettin' around that
I got to be bumpin' heads with you
What's up with that?
Listen, see

[Verse 2]
I love my man
And I know my place, I know my worth
And I just can't stand
To see myself as I hurt
It's been a long time
And I think that I can get a little more love from you
I know some of y'all go through it, too, 'cause

[Chorus]
It ain't all roses
Hey, flowers and posin'
Hey, said it ain't all candy
Hey, this love stuff is demanding
Hey, said it ain't all roses
Hey, flowers and posin'
Hey, said it ain't all candy
Hey, this love stuff is demanding
Sometimes I need a hug

[Interlude]
Sometimes I just wish you just put your arms around me
When I'm feelin' so, so, so very needy
But instead you just turn your back
And say, "Suck it up!"
Oh, you don't know how I'm feelin' right now
If you knew how I feel on the inside
You wouldn't say suck it up
Now what the ... 'cause

[Chorus]
It ain't all roses
Hey, flowers and posin'
Hey, said it ain't all candy
Hey, this love stuff is demanding
Hey, said it ain't all roses (Ain't all roses)
Hey, flowers and posin' (Flowers and posin')
Hey, said it ain't all candy
Hey, this love stuff is demanding
Sometimes I need a hug

[Outro]
It ain't all roses, you know?
Everybody ask me how good it is
It's great, love is great
But when you just a mess yourself
It ain't gon' be all roses
'Cause you just want your time
You wanna be selfish
You know, you don't want nobody messin' with you
You just wanna rip somebody head off
When they step to you with
"Oh you need some help. Oh, you need to figure it out"
You figure it out!
You figure it out!
You go figure it out!
You suck it up!
Hahaha
