"How many roses r left? X is gone. Real music is fading. Poetry is being erased by beats. How many roses r left? To get us through the issues, behind the glitz and glamor? Cause even if we're not in the spotlight, we're everyday celebrities, enduring different situations, but same demons. How many roses r left? Poets, revolutionaries, that's not afraid of the bullshit, distorting the image of a people, you swore to protect? How many roses r left? X was the last poet, to be felt, taken out by the struggles we face everyday. Or, we looking to see he was a rose? Or, just another rapper? Plagued with the stigma, he was a dope head? Next to Pac, DMX. Real talk!"
