Growing - ilish, L. Dejuan

Both of my

Brothers moved out

I was only about 9

Searching for destiny

I couldn’t find

Built up hurt inside

Did not have the time to cope

Friends did graffiti

I would vibe to instrumentals

Violence I witnessed in middle school

Left me some trauma in high school

I Fought till I bleed like its Pyru

Wanted a vest to be bullet proof

Oou

Felt real pain look at both eyes

Seen fake thugs try intimidate me

Been round the block

You could never play me

On my way like I’m young Swaizy

Gotta Stay on target like Arrow’s shooting

Made it this far but still seek improvement

Daily thanking th maker

Gave me a voic Imma go use it

When I’m at concerts or writing music

Making a movement

Winning or losing

Wearing Adidas

This time its Nike

I gotta do it

Positive music

Use my influence

This what I’m choosing yeah

Miss me with that bull

Imma grab it by the horns

The sacrificial lamb

The true meaning of a goat

I find I’m A ok

Despite the challenges

That come my way

I’m rising high above

All the hate

See me rolling

Like I got on skates yeah

I’m rolling

Rolling (x5)

Through the pain

I’m growing

Growing (x5)

You should know it (x2)

See me rolling

You should know it (x2)

See me growing

You should know it

I’m rolling

You should know it (x2)

See me growing

You should know it (x2)

I’m growing

Dropped out of college

While momma told me

Go get a job

8 months all packed up

I’m moving out

Washing dishes

Paid for the ring

Of my only Mrs

Fast forward

Saved our coins

Making investments

Broke and busted for too long

Had to get it on our own

It’s a different kinda pressure

When your married and your settled

And your kids wanting favors

While your trying to be an artist

That’s accomplished

I find I’m A ok

Despite the challenges

That come my way

I’m rising high above

All the hate

See me rolling

Like I got on skates yeah

I’m rolling

Rolling (x5)

Through the pain

I’m growing

Growing (x5)

You should know it (x2)

See me rolling

You should know it (x2)

See me growing

You should know it

I’m rolling

You should know it (x2)

See me growing

You should know it (x2)

I’m growing
