“Rose In Harlem”, track 6 off of Teyana’s sophomore album, is dedicated to the struggles she faced coming out of her hometown, and how she overcame them. She also calls out backstabbers and those who betrayed her – they only motivated her to work harder. This track samples “Because I Love You Girl” by The Stylistics.

An original draft of this song featured a sample of Ms. Lauryn Hill’s song “Lost Ones” as well as Sister Nancy’s “Bam Bam”
