Roses (feat. AJ Abdullah)

[Intro]
Ayy, 3, 2, 1, let's go

[Chorus: AJ Abdullah]
It's all just a game
It all stays the same
Everything I do is just another shot of fame, so
It's all just a game
It all stays the same
But I'll give it all up just to hear you say my name

[Verse 1: Ariea]
And I love to hear you say it
Every single night I was working, I was praying
To get a platinum plaque and bring it back to my city
If I get famous will my friends stay with me?
Cause Hollywood is a hell of a drug
They be smilin' in your face, but behind you they judge
You see fame is a ladder will you climb to the top
If your friends ain't with you, who gon' be there when you drop, ah?
Gotta keep my family close today
Give them they rosеs before we fadеaway
Think it's safe to say we gon' find a way
And even if we don't it's okay 'cause

[Chorus: AJ Abdullah]
It's all just a game
It all stays the same
Everything I do, I do for you
Oh I need you here with me
No one else can understand how hard it is to breathe
Ohh I don't know why
There is no need to cry
All you gotta do is try cause

[Verse 2: Ariea]
Yeah, if life is just a game, I been on the losing end
Couldn't show you how I feel so I'd much rather pretend
Nights with anxiety, days filled with pain
You the only person who can make me feel okay
I can't tell you what's it's like
I've been lustin' for this moment
Things start 'em as different
Once you finally hold it
Tell me is there more stress than wanting to be famous
As you get in there been trying to sustain it
Look I been askin' questions
I ain't found the answer yet
I wanna live my dreams that's why I never rest
I been searching for some peace
I been searching for my soul
I been searching for so long, forgot what I'm searching for
I just want you in my arms so that way I know I'm safe
I just want you near my ear so I hear that I'm okay
I just want you in my sight so I see that I be fine to know that
Everything takes patience you just gotta give it time, but
If I give it all this time and it don't happen
If I wasted all my years writing and rapping
Knowing that I did this for the sense of passion
And never created a wave somehow my ship is crackin', ayy
I can't even steer the boat
Rocky water shake my core
While I'm tryna stay afloat now
I pray my timin' is right 'cause this the only moment
I may have to change my whole life, like

[Chorus: AJ Abdullah]
It's all just a game
It all stays the same
Everything I do, I do for you
