Roses don’t grow in September. September Rose is about a young love relationship happening and isn’t working because it’s not the right time.
[VERSE ONE]
3 years, one muse
Purple haze, flowers bloomed
Running loose
Hand in hand in a golden frame
Too young, too naive
Too distracted to believe
That we'd make it through the rain
You know that seasons change
Hold on trying to make it last but I
Need to dance for me, I need to dance for me I
Back on my sauvi B
Ease my wicked mind
I, I, I, I
[Chorus]
Late September Rose you can't grow here
Now wash away the sweet words from your mouth
Darling days are bleeding into tears
Give me solitude, I need something new
Trust me, when I say to go
Cause you lost me and I just wanted you to know
That I'm sorry, I didn't mean to be so cold no
Oh, oh, there you go, my September Rose
[VERSE TWO]
Bedroom, 5 days
This yellow soul needs summer rays
But tell me what blooms in the shade
La la la la
Outro, slow fade spinning in rewind
I, I, I, I
[Chorus]
Late September Rose you can't grow here
Now wash away the sweet words from your mouth
Darling days are bleeding into tears
Give me solitude, I need something new
Trust me, when I say to go
Cause you lost me and I just wanted you to know
That I'm sorry, I didn't mean to be so cold no
Oh, oh, there you go, my September Rose
[BRIDGE]
Hold on tryna make it last, but I
Need to dance for me I, need to dance for me
La la la la
Back on my suavi B, ease my wicked mind
My mind, my mind, my mind
[OUTRO]
So trust me, when I say to go
Cause you lost me and I just wanted you to know
That I'm sorry, I didn't mean to be so cold no
Oh, oh, there you go, my September Rose
