Grew Up

(专辑： Label Me Diverse - 2017)

Another night, and you been knocking at my window
I wouldn't answer if I took my own advice
You gave me something that I wanted to believe in
I give up hope when every moment goes by

Another night, and you been knocking at my window
I wouldn't answer if I took my own advice
You gave me something that I wanted to believe in
I give up hope when every moment goes by

I done grew up, blew up
I'm a big boy now
I grew up, blew up
I'm a big boy now
I grew up, blew up
I'm a big boy now
Yeah
This that shit that Lauren wrote (Yeah)
Toosi ain't write this
Where you from, lil homie
You talk like you from the islands
Why you be so jolly
Always walk around like you know everybody
Not condescending, cause yo position ain't for everybody
They ain't know
Bro bro don't want his fro back
And Mama don't want me living with Unc
Since he got bout 4 Jags
She think that I'll be spoiled
Shit, maybe she right
Went from getting it out the mud
To finally living life
Like damn
Whoever thought I used to take the sole out sneakers
Cause winter was coming up
And I needed shoes for next season
The system killing my brothers
So I don't pledge the allegiance
Afraid they poison my food
So I thought about being vegan
Lauryn Hill taught me freedom
Obama built my believers
And Cole is truly the reason
That NC rappers are dreamers
He sampled a song of Lauryn
He wrote a song to the greatest
Sincere is almost like Marley
He's Marley's reincarnation
I hid stacks up in my closet
Granny can't make deposits
Cause she done made so much loans
That she'll be in debt in her coffin
And I wanna some day meet Oprah
I wish I could've meet Michael
I wanna reach out to Chris
I heard Michael is Chris' idol

Another night, and you been knocking at my window
I wouldn't answer if I took my own advice
You gave me something that I wanted to believe in
I give up hope when every moment goes by

Another night, and you been knocking at my window

Tutored me
The rap game ain't really new to me
I figured four eyes better than two
And there's something you would see
That I've been missing
This that
Come alive, feel holy
I wanna go back up North, man
I miss them burgers from Brody's
I used to be friends with Stanley
I done moved with my family
Where country muhfuckas laughed
Cause I'm calling my auntie, anty
I wrote my name in the sand
Wrote her name in the sand
I finally got new clothing
I even started a brand
My Aunt still look just like heaven
Always deliver blessings
My nickname up in my bio
Done turned to Melvin to Melmin
My flower bomb painted pictures
Found my new girl on Tinder
I've growed up and stay inside
This world is full of pretenders
Now, hello to the people
I'm the youngest around
And they still can't believe that I'm next
Yes, I aim with the tech
And I point at the crowd
But it's only cause I aim for respect
Yes, hello to the people
We are not equal
No, you can not walk in my sneakers
I pray that I make it
A dream full of Jacobs
A dream where she bad with no makeup
Wake up, wake up
Yeah
You can not fold, get yo cake up
Why it seem like we always ask for it all
And never really care where it takes us
See I live the life of a hard knock
My brother do trap with the pole
My mother do struggle
She shift work in doubles
My pops cook crack on the stove
But I still remain at the top
And I still remain as a god
So you will be stupid, fool
I'm not by myself
I came with the gods

Another night, and you been knocking at my window
I wouldn't answer if I took my own advice
You gave me something that I wanted to believe in
I give up hope when every moment goes by
