Rose Garden

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
 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)
 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
