Hearts and Flowers (commentary) Songtext
von Jennifer Lopez

Wounded soulja
Lotus grows up
Diamonds from pressure
Time is precious
Blessings can blossom from a broken child
Cold in the desert but the sun will rise
You don′t see the tears
I'm still all smiles
Put in on my back ′cause I'm built for the miles

Can you make it through the rain? (Uh-huh)
Through the trauma and the pain (uh-huh)
For the love and not the fame? (Uh-huh)
The most priceless glass is stained


It ain't hearts and flowers
It ain′t all hearts and flowers
So many nights and hours
Every day of my life in the grind faithfully
Superpowers, we all got superpowers
Before you see my life and say I live the dream
Remember everything ain′t always what it seems

But I'm still
I′m still
I'm still
I′m still

Beautiful lies a masquerade, mask up
Count me out, I'll find a way to the top, top
See my life and don′t know what it takes no
Ask me what I'd change
Not a god-damn thang

'Cause I made it through the rain (uh-huh)
Through the trauma and the pain (uh-huh)
For the love and not the fame (uh-huh)
The most priceless glass is stained


It ain′t hearts and flowers
It ain′t all hearts and flowers
So many nights and hours
Every day of my life in the grind faithfully
Superpowers, we all got superpowers
Before you see my life and say I live the dream
Remember everything ain't always what it seems

But I′m still
I'm still
I′m still
I'm still

When you′re wishin' on a star
It seems easy from where they are
They'll be watching from afar
Just remember, yeah, who you are (don′t ever let go, don′t, don't ever let ′em know)

Now she got even more than she had
Now she got hella haters and they hella mad
They see it's the same ol′ Jenny wanna block me
Paparazzi trying to make a move like they got me

Ask me how I did it, now, we at the top
Perfect timin', don′t be fooled by the rocks I got
We be shinin', bitch, took it to another level
We be thrivin', I can set the tempo for the real though but y′all know

I′m still
I'm still
I′m still
I'm still

It ain′t hearts and flowers
It ain't all hearts and flowers
So many nights and hours (I had to lose)
Every day of my life in the grind faithfully
Superpowers, we all got superpowers (we got ′em)
Before you see my life and say I live the dream (you got 'em, ah ah)
Remember everything ain't always what it seems (everything ain′t always what it seems)

But I′m still
I may have cried, may have doubted
But they'll never know, they′ll never know
