Lyrics Wyclef Jean – When A Rose Dies

Raquel:
When the rose dies
Another gun will go
When the rose dies

Wyclef Jean:
RICO, RICO, now they’re running from the narcos
Snitches got the court looking like a side-show
And the jury give the sentence with their eyes closed
When a rose die, another gun will grow

Wyclef Jean (Raquel):
The irony of life sometimes it makes me think
I’m only fresh for a second then the flesh stinks
Its back to the Earth with the fire ants
Only thing I leave behind is my fingerprints
(When the rose dies)
Yeah, they caught my cuzzo with the fingerprints
Yeah, I ain’t seen my brother ever since

Raquel:
When the rose dies
Another gun will go
When the rose dies
When the rose dies
Another gun will grow

Don Chino:
Sigo, sigo en lo mismo traficando
En la mía y seguimos controlando
Tiros, tiros en la calle siguen dando
Miro pa’tra’ y la poli me está parando

Wyclef Jean:
RICO, RICO, now they’re running from the narcos
Snitches got the court looking like a side-show
And the jury give the sentence with their eyes closed
When a rose dies another gun will grow

Raquel:
When the rose dies
Another gun will go
When the rose dies
When the rose dies
Another gun will grow

Wyclef Jean:
We went from barely getting cash from the sidewalk
To now we stand tall like Jack and the Beanstalk
You know what my people would do to get a passport
Think Scarface, kill a diplomat boy
Now I’m thinking that the ice is a diamond mine
That’s a Haitian seeing snow for the first time
?
I’m in a New York state of mind
While Papa Doc had niggas shittin’ in the gun line

Raquel (Wyclef Jean):
When the rose dies
Another gun will go
When the rose dies
When the rose dies
Another gun will grow
When a rose dies another gun will grow
