KAVANA - Flowers feat. Nissim Black [Official Music Video]

Flowers is about finding those joyful moments. Those meaningful bits. Those good nuggets of life we all have. Sure life can be super hard. Sometimes it feels like everything is bad. Like it’s all just thistles and thorns. Its not. At any given moment there is a veritable myriad of things to be grateful for. To appreciate. To cherish. Who said you deserve to breathe? Or walk? Or anything else? Like picking flowers out of a field of thorns the message of flowers is clear. If you’re feeling down, go pick some flowers of goodness in your life and smell them, take them in and let it warm up your soul.

Lyrics:

Lately I’ve been having trouble sleeping

many crazy moments when I’m dreaming

Trying to find a semblance of meaning, meaning, yeah

But when I wake I see the sun arising

Break of a new day to be surprising

Get out take a walk and start finding

So many things so inspiring

And it’s like I’m picking flowers, flowers

While I’m counting down the hours, hours

sun is shining through the darkness, darkness

slowly warming up my heart

And it’s like I’m picking flowers, flowers

I’ve been sitting here for hours, hours

I know I gotta make some Changes

And I know just where to start

I know the world ain’t what it seems

I just feel stuck in between

Like a rock and hard place

Or maybe a winding maze

I know I gotto make amends

I know that I can’t be pretend

Ive had enough of being jaded

I’ve had enough of being wasted

And it’s like I’m picking flowers, flowers

And I’m counting down the hours, hours

sun is shining through the darkness

slowly warming up my heart

And it’s like I’m picking flowers

I’ve been sitting here for hours

I know I gotto make some changes

And I know just where to start

So i've been chasing all these flowers

so maybe this gone be the hour

for me to get back to who i was

the real me

I know that i've been on a journey i've been racing forward

back and forth from side to side im steady pacing towards it

so many goals and dreams I let them get away now

so many changes in my life i want to make but

more than a dreamer i'm a fighter till i get it

Gd by my side im not depraved of my religion

but moving slowly i'm just waiting for his vision

I plead the 5th don't give an inch to any opposition

And it’s like I’m picking flowers

I’m counting down the hours

sun is shining through the darkness

slowly warming up my heart

And it’s like I’m picking flowers

I’ve been sitting here for hours

sun is shining through the darkness

And I know just where to start
