    This song takes me back, j dilla is the reason I take music so deeply, reason for making my mindset brighter instead of did forcing on the negative parts. When stuff brings me down, his beats and songs with his beats make me feel .
    I wish he was alive. I would love to see what he would make next. Him and nujabes
    This whole album is banging.

    [Verse 1: Frank Nitt]
    Okay, okay, alright
    I'ma get it tight, it's only right, it's me and you
    And I will never underestimate the things that you've been through
    Ring around the wack dude, steady getting played
    You laying the wedding plans, he planning on getting laid
    So hi, how you doing? How your momma doing? Nice to meet you
    Seems like you need a meal, I would like to treat you
    And we can discuss the wrong and the right way
    Or we can get smashed of off Hennessy and OJ
    Okay, you taking off your Dolce and Gabanna
    And I ain't even ask, don't mean I don't wanna
    Start in the bed, end up in the shower
    But first let me give you these flowers
    [Chorus: Niko Gray]
    You give me flowers so I can fill the hours of the night my powers far and high
    A sweeter song, my eyes are now devouring the light like a spiral come alive
    You give me flowers of life giving me love and lullabies made up of the sky
    And every minute, every hour, I devour the light like a spiral come alive
    You give me flowers
    You give me flowers
    [Verse 2: Talib Kweli]
    The most powerful lotus flower devour me by the hour
    Got me open, got me zoning, she smoking me like a sour
    I'm hoping to give her dower, honor her with the moolah
    From dating and making rumors to baby showers and doulas
    Consume her with my passion, she match it, it's so special
    Whenever she take a step, she get showered in rose petals
    On my King Jaffe Joffer, black Don Quixote
    Swinging like Devante on my Mr. Belafonte
    My group with Dante inspired Phonte and Big Pooh
    The way my bella move poetic like big beaucoup
    I love your fragrance, it's plush, and plus your touch my favorite
    Vanessa Williams on the poster in my mother's basement
    [Chorus: Niko Gray]
    You give me flowers so I can fill the hours of the night my powers far and high
    A sweeter song, my eyes are now devouring the light like a spiral come alive
    You give me flowers of life giving me love and lullabies made up of the sky
    And every minute, every hour, I devour the light like a spiral come alive
    You give me flowers
    You give me flowers
    [Verse 3: Illa J]
    Yea I give you flowers, 'cause I touch your powers
    So I sign my initials on the line, dismiss all my chicks on the sideline
    'Cause I want to feel mine, electricity aside
    You a love conductor, you feel that energy and so do I
    But only I keep it real, I wanna be your only guy
    And I'm cool we can't be homies but I just wanna be your homie
    'Cause I'm home alone and I think you're the perfect person for me
    Don't we have amazing chemistry but you send me on a [?]
    Read between those lines, ghost lines
    'Cause I can't say what I feel
    You know how keeping it real goes wrong
    I have to rewrite this whole song
    Feelings were too revealed, revealed
    So that's why I sent you flowers with this letter sealed, "Love John"
    [Chorus: Niko Gray]
    You give me flowers so I can fill the hours of the night my powers far and high
    A sweeter song, my eyes are now devouring the light like a spiral come alive
    You give me flowers of life giving me love and lullabies made up of the sky
    And every minute, every hour, I devour the light like a spiral come alive
    You give me flowers
    You give me flowers
