I didn't promise you a rose garden Along with the sunshine There's gotta be some rain sometimes Watch out I didn't promise you a rose garden (Yeah) Along with the sunshine There's gotta be some rain sometimes Listen, ok
[Verse 1] When Abraham went to slash Issac In a sense he baptized him Rabbi said don't trust in cash prizes Same things that float your boat can capsize it Tell the snakes they can take a hike like gas prices No such things as half-way crooks or half righteous (Yeah) Those who have eyes should act like it To help the sightless seeking the light switch To see in the night with, we leading the lifeless Sometimes I just wanna play some shows, make some dough Take it home, lay in my bed, and stay in my safety zone But Cee-Lo said it best I know too much and I owe too much to let it rest Heard a voice say hey, You never question when you get the blessings So don't get vexed when your life is stressed And I promised I'll be with you no matter what the issue But there will be some issues to address Listen to the lady in the dress
I didn't promise you a rose garden Along with the sunshine (Uh huh) There's gotta be some rain sometimes I beg your pardon, I didn't promise you a rose garden Along with the sunshine There's gotta be a little rain sometimes (Rain feels like this, check it)
[Verse 2] I'm not in the zone, there's too much in the way I weigh two bucks and if I had two slugs to spray Like raa raa, Glenn Beck better duck like foie gras Make shots poke his face like Gaga But mama says forgive, so I give him that bar like a Mars then let him live The missing saga continues, ranting While my DJ's lamping like Green Lantern, sampling Mansions? Nah, I ain't rich as Richard Branson I'm King Kong meets Vince Vaughn and I play like a champion I'm a Monday ball-e? Nah B, all week Seven days of black power naps every forty eight half hours That's twenty four starring Jack Bauer Can't cower when the rain falls And it falls whether you're Gandhi or you're Adolf Fall weather vendors always are way off Make the call no rain delay Play ball
I didn't promise you a rose garden (No) Along with the sunshine (Yeah) There's gotta be some rain sometimes I beg your pardon, I didn't promise you a rose garden (Uh huh, Uh huh) Along with the sunshine (Yeah) There's gotta be a little rain sometimes
