The eleventh track from the album, which is produced by Chad Stubbs, who also produced “Paragone” earlier on the project.
The song shares a title with “Smell the Roses” by Mark Battles, of whom Azure views as his idol. It is also worth noting that Azure got to work with two Fly America affiliates (...
[Verse 1]
You insult me with your names
But I dont fuck with any labels
Niggas quick to turn on you
Soon as you turn the tabels
The rap game be on life support
These niggas barely able
Im bout to pull the plug
And I ain't talking bout no cable
Its a fucked up situation
Theres a void I need to fill
Feeling empty from inside
Guess ill take another pill
Guess I'll fucking overdose
Just to see if I can feel
Guess I'll live to die again
To see if life is not for real
[Hook]
Say I'm here today
I'll be gone before you know it
Yeah you said you love me
But I bet you never show it
We can start to dive
All you got to do is notice
There's a void inside my heart
So wake up and smell the roses
[Verse 2]
Know I had some questions
But the stressing left me guessing
I almost died one day
That was over a killed confession
I almost lost it all
Going blind from the vision
Had to open up another eye to see the world different
Rap about some money and hoes youll be successful
Guess I might not make it cuz I'm way beyond that level
Yall asking for some handouts and this baggage is a handful
Keep that bullshit to yourself I'm everything except ungrateful
If anything I'm hateful that my people are so gentrified
Niggas shouting WAKE UP but that ain't from your own eyes
Copying the culture we just living in this disguise
Sit tight, remember one second could change our whole lives
[Hook]
Say I'm here today
And I'm gone before you know it
Yeah you said you love me
But I bet you never show it
We can start to dive
All you got to do is notice
There's a void inside my heart
So wake up and smell the roses
Say I'm here today
And I'm gone before you know it
Yeah you said you love me
But I bet you never show it
We can start to dive
All you got to do is notice
There's a void inside my heart
So wake up and smell the roses
[Breakdown]
[Hook]
Say I'm here today
And I'm gone before you know it
Yeah you said you love me
But I bet you never show it
We can start to dive
All you got to do is notice
There's a void inside my heart
So wake up and smell the roses
