And upstairs in that room.with the darkness falling in on me.I gave everything I had to try and erase the doubt that you wasn't the fines man in the world.
Every part of me I could find to give you. And it didn't take me not eighteen years to find out the soil was hard and rocky and it wasn't never gonna bloom. I planted myself inside you and waited to bloom. I planted a seed and watched and prayed over it. I took all my feelings, my wants and needs, my dreams.and I buried them inside you. Don't you think it ever crossed my mind to want to know other men? That I wanted to lay up somewhere and forget about my responsibilities? That I wanted someone to make me laugh so I could feel good? You not the only one who's got wants and needs. Don't you think I ever wanted other things? Don't you think I had dreams and hopes? What about my life? What about me. I gave eighteen years of my life to stand in the same spot with you. “ROSE: I been standing with you! I been right here with you, Troy. You best be making sure they doing right by you. Don’t try and go through life worrying about if somebody like you or not. And liking your black ass wasn’t part of the bargain. I gave you your life! Me and your mama worked that out between us. I done give you everything I had to give you. Rand don’t five me money come payday cause he likes me. I OWE a responsibility to you! Let’s get this straight right here… before it go along any further… I ain’t got to like you. Not ‘cause I like you! Cause it’s my duty to take care of you. You live in my house… sleep on my bed clothes…fill you belly up with my food… cause you my son. It’s my RESPONSIBILITY! You understand that? A man got to take care of his family. “Like you? I go out of here every morning… bust my butt…putting up with them crackers everyday…cause I like you? You about the biggest fool I ever saw.
