the rose

lies the seed that with the sun\\\'s love in the spring becomes the rose some say love it is a river that drowns the tender reed some say love it is a razor that leaves your soul to bleed some say love it is a hunger an endless aching need i say love it is a flower and you it\\\'s only seed it\\\'s the heart afraid of breaking that never learns to dance it\\\'s the dream afraid of walking that never takes the chance it\\\'s the one who won\\\'t be taken who can\\\'t seem to give and the soul afraid of dying that never learns to live when the night has been too lonely and the road has been too long and you think that love is only for the lucky and the strong just remember in the winter for beneath the bitter snow lies the seed that with the sun\\\'s love in the spring becomes the rose (rap) life is a gift and you gotta learn to live it if you believe in love you gotta learn to give it tryin\\\' to find someone who\\\'s kind is hard to do you want the love but you really don\\\'t know what to do you\\\'re just afraid of someone breaking your heart you never learned to live you gave up from the start you felt the pain but it made you strong so remember no matter what you will go on
