[Kendrick Lamar, Jhené Aiko - Growing Apart To Get Closer lyrics]
Where are we going? Why are we slowing down?
Where are you going? We should be growing now
(Smoke to it nigga, smoke to it nigga, oh)
Where are we going? Why are we slowing down?
Where are you going? We should be growing now
That’s what she said to me
That place I used to call home
Is just a bed to me and we don’t even sleep
Neighbors can hear her weep
Meanwhile I’m in these
Streets with everybody, i’m trying to get it
And she know they got me
I watch her feelings watch me
As they staring with the
Saddest eyes of loneliness
Look each other in the face and barely blink
I tried to make it right
But the pen ran out of ink
So if my letters don’t reach you
I hope these lyrics in sync
Where are we going? Why are we slowing down?
Where are you going? We should be growing now
That’s what it said to me
But the place I call ambition now dead to me
Gone and forgotten
I’m off track like Dale Earnhardt
My liver rotten, alcoholic tripping
Fucking bad bitches and they
Got bad intentions
Club night, guys and dolls
Balling out but I'm 'bout to drop the ball
I’m calling out for help, my engineer called
Told me come to the studio, I wanna tell him
Nah
Where are we going? Why are we slowing down?
Where are you going? We should be growing now
That’s what he said to me
But that place we call Heaven unfair to me
Only 144 can go
Seven billion people on planet Earth today
Is there something that I don’t know
I know to follow Him rather following people
Or follow vanity cause that
Means I’m following evil
Guess I’m following evil
I should follow cathedral
Blessings I need but live like
I don’t need you
Where are we going? Why are we slowing down?
Where are you going? We should be growing now
So in conclusion we all seem to stumble
Planning our own demise
Forgetting the big picture and
Making it wallet size
So to what is important in my life
I apologize i promise to stay faithful
Focused and sanctified
We all get distracted, the question is
Would you bounce back or bounce backwards?
Would you not know how to act or take action?
It’s just a part of life
And if your vision’s impaired
You probably lose it all tonight
Tryna visualize how to get it right
But my vision’s so blurry
Tryna slow it down, stay close to the ground
But we’re always in a hurry now
And if I could make this
World spin a little slower, then I would
Then we could grow a little closer
I think we’re getting closer
I think we’re getting closer
Where are you going? We should be growing now
(Smoke to it nigga, smoke to it nigga, oh)
Where are we going? Why are we slowing down?
Where are you going? We should be growing now
That’s what she said to me
That place I used to call home
Is just a bed to me and we don’t even sleep
Neighbors can hear her weep
Meanwhile I’m in these
Streets with everybody, i’m trying to get it
And she know they got me
I watch her feelings watch me
As they staring with the
Saddest eyes of loneliness
Look each other in the face and barely blink
I tried to make it right
But the pen ran out of ink
So if my letters don’t reach you

Where are we going? Why are we slowing down?
Where are you going? We should be growing now
