Growing Pains

Young in my prime but the grind it got me feeling old
Out in that field seen the hardest of the hard fold
I done it all and heard it all but I never told
No love so my shoulder and my heart cold
Niggas hate you can't relate kuz you've been here B4
Paper routes which road to take come get you a tour
Was down bad but not for long is what I knew for sure
Thought I was krazy till they finally seen my vision pure

Grew up fast we was broke had are pockets in a cast
Man my past me tough tough times didn't last
I had to jump inside my bag on my ass it was rough
On my knuckles with my last man these rags done had enough
Paper chasing I been running you can tell kuz I'm winded
Man my bitch don't like me hustling but that money she gon spend it
She don't want to die alone I don't want to die broke
Keep it subtle on the phone she said boy you too woke
Yeah I'm up and I'm gone beat the sun that's dub
Old me too lazy I couldn't feel it that's a nubb
You want catch me in a club but you can catch me in a booth
Cash rules that's the rule that I learned as a youth

Young in my prime but the grind it got me feeling old
Out in that field seen the hardest of the hard fold
I done it all and heard it all but I never told
No love so my shoulder and my heart cold
Niggas hate you can't relate kuz you've been here B4
Paper routes which road to take come get you a tour
Was down bad but not for long is what I knew for sure
Thought I was krazy till they finally seen my vision pure

To tell the truth I been grown since the kid learned to walk
And talk I been plotting since sidewalks and chalk
All the weight made me stronger pressure turned me to a man
All the pain from the hunger just turned me to a Stan
Of the grind man mind full of million dollars thoughts
Manifesting every blessing man this shit feel like a cult
The way the paper got me chasing chasing running out of fuel
And these Demons I been facing facing got me in a duel
With myself I been fighting back and forth no help
In the water with the sharks I been swimming like Phelps
Set goals and we hit them man you know what camp we in
Days ones still with them we gone die sum champions

Young in my prime but the grind it got me feeling old
Out in that field seen the hardest of the hard fold
I done it all and heard it all but I never told
No love so my shoulder and my heart cold
Niggas hate you can't relate kuz you've been here B4
Paper routes which road to take come get you a tour
Was down bad but not for long is what I knew for sure
Thought I was krazy till they finally seen my vision pure
