Smell The Roses

[Atone]

(Verse)
Walkin the road alone checkin out the palm tree's and roses
in the art gallery lookin at all the different kinda poses
thinkin deep, life can be different in so many ways
can't follow the same path's to get thru the maze
gotta change up the routine to make it thru the days
gotta feel the pain before you can enjoy the smiles
before you can relax you have to have walked a million miles
before you pick the right look you gotta see all the styles
can't be to quick to make a decision
take it slow and make it all worth livin
yeah my ex gave me pain, but i had to feel it to grow
i know, there was love in that relationship but sometimes it just didn't show
for some reason it just didn't work, to much hurt i had to let go
i love you, but i hate you, love is such a mystery
and sometimes, it's not all about the history
11 years in the making but very little chemestry
only oner i been with longer than her is my relationship with music
so when love hurts me, hip hop is here to help me thru shit
so think of it this way, i may of been heartbroken but really it aint hopeless
cuz i found a creative way to keep goin with somethin to cope with
so instead of just waitin to die in life, i stop to smell the roses

i liked the scheme and how you tied it together at the end...in the middle the flow was perfect...it was rocky to start and a lil stretched at the end imo...if you were to rewrite those last couple bars and move the syllables around just a little bit then that would be fixed/ but thats just for me you probably have a different way of flowing it...but all around the lyrics were decent and i saw what you were trying to do with all the metaphors and what not.....well done man
