Growing Pains
Flashbacks to my adolescents
Circumstances different but she made sure we had some presents
Christmas morning we ain't have shit she let us open early
Black Friday deals after Thanksgiving she was in a hurry
We grow up fast, memories from the past
Constantly in my thoughts when I take a sip from this glass
How priorities go from family to sitting in class
Went from chasing after my sister to chasing this cash, damn
We can't say goodbye to yesterday
Product of our environments so just let us pray
Still remember when auntie Janet would let us stay
And we had family say we was blessed the jealous way, different sacrifices
Constant arguments who was dressed up the nicest
Made it look good, don't try to ask me the prices
Looking through these photos realizing how much I changed
Ain't know that growing up meant that some things just won't be the same for real
I don't know if it's my growing pains
Or pain growing, all I know is I can't stay the same
Feel like everything is starting to change
I don't know if it's my growing pains
Residual thoughts
Not realizing the sacrifice was a critical loss
Now I'm a lyrical boss pardon my tendencies
Working so much, losing my time, I hope they remember me the grind is real
Consistent reminders in case they forget I'm kinda ill
Nowadays schedules booked, so later got time to kill
Future got me invested, past memories collected
The path we on was tested. just tryna reconnect it
I don't know if it's my growing pains,
Or pain growing, all I know is I can't stay the same
Feel like everything is starting to change
I don't know if it's my growing pains
I don't know if it's my growing pains
Or pain growing, all I know is I can't stay the same
Feel like everything is starting to change
I don't know if it's my growing pains
Circumstances different but she made sure we had some presents
Christmas morning we ain't have shit she let us open early
Black Friday deals after Thanksgiving she was in a hurry
We grow up fast, memories from the past
Constantly in my thoughts when I take a sip from this glass
How priorities go from family to sitting in class
Went from chasing after my sister to chasing this cash, damn
We can't say goodbye to yesterday
Product of our environments so just let us pray
Still remember when auntie Janet would let us stay
And we had family say we was blessed the jealous way, different sacrifices
Constant arguments who was dressed up the nicest
Made it look good, don't try to ask me the prices
Looking through these photos realizing how much I changed
Ain't know that growing up meant that some things just won't be the same for real
I don't know if it's my growing pains
Or pain growing, all I know is I can't stay the same
Feel like everything is starting to change
I don't know if it's my growing pains
Residual thoughts
Not realizing the sacrifice was a critical loss
Now I'm a lyrical boss pardon my tendencies
Working so much, losing my time, I hope they remember me the grind is real
Consistent reminders in case they forget I'm kinda ill
Nowadays schedules booked, so later got time to kill

The path we on was tested. just tryna reconnect it
I don't know if it's my growing pains,
Or pain growing, all I know is I can't stay the same
Feel like everything is starting to change
I don't know if it's my growing pains
I don't know if it's my growing pains
Or pain growing, all I know is I can't stay the same
Feel like everything is starting to change
I don't know if it's my growing pains
