Growing Pains

Mary J Blige Growing Pains Album

9.Roses

See today I'm having one of them days where
I just don't want to be bothered,
But it seems like you can't understand that because it's your
way or no way,
But check this out
And I'm really, really sick and tired of you steppin' into my
little box
When I just don't want to be bothered okay, so check this out.

I've had my ways, and I've had my share of ups and downs.
I been in trouble, and I couldn't tell my ups from downs
I been your baby, and I don't know why you don't seem like that
no more
Welcome to the new definition of love.

It ain't all roses hey,
Flowers imposing hey
Said it ain't all candy hey
This love stuff is demanding hey

See you just really wanna push all my buttons
Cause you Mr. Right & I'm Mrs. Wrong,
But right now today,
I'm going to be the one to sing this song
I'm going be Mrs. Right today it's my way, or the highway
With you there's just no getting around that I got to be bumping
heads with you
What's up with that?
Listen see

I love my man, and I know my place I know my worth
I just can't stand
To see myself as I hurt
It's been along time, and I think that I can get a little more
love from you
I know some of yall go through it too cause


Sometimes I just wish you would just put your arms around me
But instead you just turn your back and say 'suck it up'
Oh you don't know how I feel right now
If you knew how I'm feeling on the inside you wouldn't say 'suck
it up'
Now what tha' cause
