Growing Pains Lyrics

Growing today

Means hurting your pride

Open your eyes

Growing tomorrow

Leaves time up for sorrow

Learn from your mistakes

Like back in 7th grade

Put myself on the shelf

I would sit by myself

Even when I was surrounded by people I called friends

They were good, but I didn't really know 'em

Never even really what I could do, felt I had to hide what I was goin' through

Woulda cared if they knew, but they didn't, oh well

Bury shit deep like I did so well

Used to creep downstairs to stay all night talkin' on my stolen phone

Instead of hang, I sat down first

No wonder I felt so alone

Stealin' from my mama's purse

Healin' from that trauma hurt

Yeah, that's generational

Hurtin' self sensational

Growing today

Means hurting your pride

Open your eyes

Growing tomorrow

Leaves time up for sorrow

Learn from your mistakes

Like back in 9th grade

Tryna put myself out there, but not in the right way

On a awkward date

Thought it went well, but she can't relate

Sittin' in a field

For me, surreal

For her just a thing to get past and forget the next week, but oh well

That's how it is when you don't know how to act

That's how it is when you behind on your crap

Growing today

Means hurting your pride

Open your eyes

Growing tomorrow

Leaves time up for sorrow

Learn from your mistakes
