Rooftops — текст песни (Tarsha Vega)

featuring Carole King

Stayed in bed all mornin` just to pass the time
To unwind I wrote a rhyme ripped it up & wrote some mo lines
Lookin` out my window saw an eagle fly by
The vibe`s up on the fire escape
The steps I takes when I climb
Yo I gets higher than the size of a high rise
Y`all realize I be starin` at the skyline through some technicolor eyes
I see the rooftops with their colors none are ever the same
And I got many colors in me u couldn`t capture in a frame
Yo I gets

Red when I gets heated I be blue when I`m mistreated
Yo my parents separated when I was a kid
I wasn`t defeated cause life is down to throw u some curves
And yo u gotsta be strong and move on

Colors in the sky reflectin` the light
Celebratin` life and it feels alright
There`s room upon the palate for u and I
So why can`t we just

U and me kid we down to spray paint the sky
Gonna check out all the colors as they intensify how high
Shades and tones together they electrify
Ay yo sometimes I`m introspective find a corner and hide
Invariably the fantasy is sweeter than the real Holla
So many intangibles and things that u ain`t feel
On the surface like rooftops that bask in the sun
ClichÈ`s a dime a dozen
Beez are buzzin` feel it c`mon some bout the

Green like moneymakers clock the cream like they in Vegas
Livin` dollar to dollar runnin through they every wages and
My life be what I makes it in this celluloid fling uh
See me and Carole King up on a rooftop singin`
Up on the roof)

Colors in the sky reflectin` the light
Celebratin` life and it feels alright
There`s room upon the palate for u & I
So why can`t we just
Paint in every color and reflect the light
We doin` it together and it feels alright
There`s room upon the palate for u & I
So why can`t we just

Took a little walk lost track of the time
Wrote another rhyme and the flow`s still divine
Gazin` down on Broadway at the neon signs
Like Q-Tip say Joni Mitchell never lie
And ya don`t know what`chu got in this life
Ya finally find ya canvas `n ya color it bright
Like I told ya on the record still got time to shine
Never know what`chu find inside
