"He who wants a rose must respect the thorn. -Persian Proverb"
With vocals and keys in tow, Katarra sings a rebel cry of self-love for the underdog. From the Phoenix that rose from the ashes, to the rose that grew from concrete, Katarra presents her first live and epic single, composed and produced by herself.
lyrics
Oooh, Ahhh
Ahhhhh
Ahhh
Oooh, oooh
Oooh, oooh
You loath a rose
that grew from concrete
You will dispose anything
that can’t compete
With all the lies to yourself
You will believe
You loathe a sun, that exposes your…
Crazy (crazy)
Crazy, yeah
Crazy, Ohhh
You loathe a rose
that came from concrete
Poke all your holes
all my evidence is concrete
With all your lies to yourself
You will believe
Until the sun, shines a light upon your…
Crazy (crazy)
Ohhh
Crazy, Ohhh
You loathe a rose
that grew from concrete
You will dispose anything
that can’t compete
With all the holes in your soul
so incomplete
With all the lies
that you try so hard to believe in
Until the sun shines a light on your crazy
Until the sun shines a light upon your crazy
Until the sun shines a light upon your crazy
Until the sun shines a light upon your...
Crazy
Crazy (zay)
Ohhh
I know I wasn’t the
basic cookie cutter type just for you, ooh ooh ooh
I'll never fit into your lies and mediocrity
You never made it easy my love
You never made it, you never made it easy
You never made it easy
Now my love must...die
Bah bah bah bah
Bah bah bah
Oooh, oooh
Oooh, oooh
Do da do da, do da do da
do da do da, do da do da
Do da do da, do da do da
do da do da, do da do da
za da do do, za da do do
za da do, da da do
za ba da da, za ba da do
do da do da, do da do da
za bah bah bah, bah bah bah bah
Ahhh, ahhh
Ahhh, ahhh
