Sol - Growing Pains lyrics
[Sol - Growing Pains lyrics]
At 18 I lived a crazy life
But, I couldn't tell you what
The '80s were like took an 1
8 to my face everyday
But my grade's straight A
I guess my IQ must've been high
All the girls in my class so eager to grow up
Chasing older boys, tryina make 'em crush
By on Myspace she said she
Was looking for love
Put me on the top, so I guess I'm the one
School dances, romances
Turned tohouse parties
And after the party it's the hotel lobby
Her moms credit card better work, but if not
You bet we will hot box the car
She said let's pop a Molly
I said what's a Molly?
All I do is smoke weed
And get drunk out forty
Some of the homies tried to
Keep this shit goin
Stuck in the twelve grade
And ready to grow up fucking around
Been fucking around, fucking around
Still fucking around, fucking around
Spend a lot of time on my mind right now
24 hours 'fore I come down
Been fucking around still fucking around
At 21 I lived a sober life
Sike, my liver workin overdrive
Really though
The highlight was going to shows
No more getting denied at the door
I built the buzz of my own now
Promoting gigs of my own now
Paying dues in front of older crowds
The Internet haters gave me
Thick skin Mixed kid
Only thing debated was my pigment
See me on the mic
And you see I got the light
Plus I'm, only 21
Imagine what I'll be in like when I'm 25
I'ma take over the Globe soon as I'm grown
Graduate and I'll get on the road
Use my age as a crutch
And next thing I know I'm not 21
And I'm not on the road
Made it round the world just to
Come back to the town
24 years old, still fucking around
(For ever young learning from
The light within
Just an outcast who would rap a lot
You tell me have I changed)
(Make the time to find who you are
Who you are)
At 26 I live a simple life
Three loves, good food, great sex one mic
Every day I wake up and
Fill my body with light
Meditation might've saved my life
I don't pray, all I do is bow
I don't even party now, I just want to chill
Sick of everybody talking dollar dollar bills
Let's have a conversation for real
If you're fucking with me, struggle with me
If your riding with me
Pull all nighters with me
If you dig it, find some water with me
We're all evolving working
Progress and knowledge
Is never ending so I guess we're?
If you think about it
The road is straight or crooked
Dependin how you lookin at it
Life is long or short
Depends on how you living active
And if you've been abandoned
But still Build a band around you
And your friends are family
Now you ain't fucking around
Lessons learned, you ain't fucking around
You really ain't fucking around
But, I couldn't tell you what
The '80s were like took an 1
8 to my face everyday
But my grade's straight A
I guess my IQ must've been high
All the girls in my class so eager to grow up
