Wonderful And Scary

(With the squad)
(Good for everybody)
(Comfort in the rod and the staff of my God)

The Beginning:

Planet Earth, 1993, enter little me
A new Peabody baby born in the heart of the 253
New ID, when I met the King He gave me everything
Now I get to sing my mic in the hand with my wedding ring
But things are not as simple as an 8 bar summary
Life can change the tempo fast as we make memories
One day my Nintendo seemed the height of luxury
Now I'm wondering what's under the surface of all my feelings

This the second my second album progresses
To look for sense in the messes
A lesson amidst the guessing
So Jesus please give me blessing
When I step into this session
Of wrestling don't let me forget
My best message is from Heaven

'Cause growing up is a trip
Each day adjusting my grip
One day I think I might slip
The next I'm busting my lip
But then again on the flip, no adventure's bigger than this
So there's not a single moment that I wanna miss now

We grow up, we fall down
It's wonderful and scary
Stepping out of our towns
Both terrified and daring
It seems like every day I'm growing up another way
We grow up, we fall down
It's wonderful and scary

This is two for me, two for all the OG's
The ones who knew 'bout Healthy Snacks way back in 2017
Still feels like a dream, still got no clue what it means
But seems to me that God's always got something up His sleeve
(I believe)

But I gotta admit l'm a tad bit fixed on a mix of fears and what if's
Should I go through with this?
Will I get twisted cynical cuffs on my wrists?
Will I miss high fives and throw fists?
When I sip lies, will it make me spit?
Will I take the stairs, miss the lifts?
Will I be too proud to take gifts?

Even if the what if's happen right now
And all the fears inside of me just climb out
Nothing's gonna change with my eyes down
The voice of faith says God hears the sounds of His children
Walking, growing, learning
Living and discerning
Our God daily bears our burdens

We grow up, we fall down
It's wonderful and scary
Stepping out of our towns
Both terrified and daring
It seems like every day I'm growing up another way
We grow up, we fall down
It's wonderful and scary

We grow up, we fall down
It's wonderful and scary
Stepping out of our towns
Both terrified and daring
It seems like every day I'm growing up another way
We grow up, we fall down
It's wonderful and scary

God I'm here at the outskirts
Make me brave, make my feet work
'Cause one more step, and it's new turf
A new sky over new earth
God I'm here at the outskirts
With a song and some cheap merch
I'm ready as I'll ever be for what it's worth
Lead the way, show me everything I need to learn
