Pushing Up Flowers

Lyrics: Leah Cleaver Music: Leah Cleaver/Joseph Thompson Grandioso Oh so tiring I give a fake laugh Really I’m dying and You can’t see me cause you never have Wanna be me thinking you’d stand a chance But I’m waiting for Waiting for my time To take back what is mine and I won’t stand in line Cause I’ve pushed up through the flowers And I waited there for hours and I waited in the rain thinking that you’d come in vain You never did you never called I feel the fool But not before I tell I I cry I die I rise I fall I crawl Sometimes But I
Blue flower, sweet or sour Don’t you know that That I love my power, baby My power, baby Young breezy, come to see me Don’t you know everybody gon’ see My power, baby My power, baby
Feeling breathless Gotta check this Gotta figure out my next steps And get this If I lose you I can move through This life without a checklist uh, I’m in my power and I’m In my tower Feeling higher than the birds I don’t come with all the words I’ve got my power sis And you’ve got yours too Don’t ever let a man tell you that it’s untrue Take control of everything You’re not some heavy thing Not weighted down Never touch the ground You’re above him now and he don’t know how You’re above him now and he don’t know how

Blue flower, sweet or sour Don’t you know that That I love my power, baby My power, baby Young breezy, come to see me Don’t you know everybody gon’ see My power baby, my power baby
