What happens after GROWTH?
What happens after growth is the question I keep asking me
After all the trials and fire that led me on to me
After adolescence has died, there's new life in me
A phoenix has arose through prose, bombastically
New breath that I breathe is clean through my nose
Is it magic, does it mean my chapter's closed?
Does it mean I never once have to fight foes?
Does it mean I'll forever be cooking, like a stove?
Gotta take it back to the past and think it through
A control freak I been and it all felt abused
Because I had dreams to see myself in news
Because of this the devil was tempting the issue
Because of my dreams and wanting the big chair
To sit above everyone else make them aware
And seeking validation through storytelling and flair
And yet through it nobody knew I was just a square
Wanting to be acknowledged but leaving no explanations
Hoping that my mystery leads infatuations
Then purposely slowing it down with all of my relations
For deeper connections and feeding my sensations
Purposely leaving open doors for unfinished business
Piling up the ghosts and leaving all things unfinished
A con-man at heart leaving all things diminished
It's here I realise I'm not as whole, I admit it
What happens after growth?
I guess you just keep on growing
Praying for exile because I'm scared that I'll blow it
But God has greater plans, he tells me and I know it
To use all of my trash as some new seeds He's sowing
What happens after growth?
God will use all my dreams
My search for acknowledgement?
To power my self esteem
The ghosts of my past?
Memories that'll last
All bringing me to my purpose, as He asks
What happens after growth?
A divine purpose
That's what happens after growth
After all the trials and fire that led me on to me
After adolescence has died, there's new life in me
A phoenix has arose through prose, bombastically
New breath that I breathe is clean through my nose
Is it magic, does it mean my chapter's closed?
Does it mean I never once have to fight foes?
Does it mean I'll forever be cooking, like a stove?
Gotta take it back to the past and think it through
A control freak I been and it all felt abused
Because I had dreams to see myself in news
Because of this the devil was tempting the issue
Because of my dreams and wanting the big chair
To sit above everyone else make them aware
And seeking validation through storytelling and flair
And yet through it nobody knew I was just a square
Wanting to be acknowledged but leaving no explanations
Hoping that my mystery leads infatuations
Then purposely slowing it down with all of my relations
For deeper connections and feeding my sensations
Purposely leaving open doors for unfinished business
Piling up the ghosts and leaving all things unfinished
A con-man at heart leaving all things diminished
It's here I realise I'm not as whole, I admit it
What happens after growth?
I guess you just keep on growing
Praying for exile because I'm scared that I'll blow it
But God has greater plans, he tells me and I know it
To use all of my trash as some new seeds He's sowing
What happens after growth?
God will use all my dreams

To power my self esteem
The ghosts of my past?
Memories that'll last
All bringing me to my purpose, as He asks
What happens after growth?
A divine purpose
That's what happens after growth
