Damian Lillard - Growth Spurt lyrics

[Intro] Dame DOLLA The wait is over Look, look, look [Verse] My first encounter with adversity, was somewhat an emergency I fell off the path and my mental, it needed surgery The more I stumbled off the more my actions started irking me I got it together and the top looked like my turf to be They think money rules I'm rich and I'm done with school My problems still exist so don't listen to none them fools For currency they runnin they lives into paid in full I took a task and made it cash now my path done became cool My life came full circle at the park was throwing left hooks Now I'm in the league with Steph Curry and Russell Westbrook Took a couple bumps boy you never would see my chest shook My heart came from a lion this path only the best took I wanna check the critics cause all they things they nitpick They always seem to skip where he started his ascension Like reciprocity but that ain't what they give him I did it from the jump but you stumble, they pay attention Aware of my surroundings at all time, a wall fly I spot a coward a mile off, no small mind Put that pressure all on my shoulders, return with Hulk’s spine A hot head when they rain on my parade, let my thoughts dry Experience in my life prepared me for the high life All the times I struggled just prepared me for the highlights Used to circle shoes in East Bay, now mine on fly sites And we can toast to that, my circle sharin' in Mai Tai My dad been kickin' game since I was young, I've been a sponge bro 100 wads in my pocket, covered by the ones though Never flex my muscles, don't welcome me to the gun show Never show it's done, just take care of who it's done for, huh The dream free, but the hustle, sold separately Been knew I was only as solid as who was next to me My cousins, my few good friends, the rest are x to me Cause bad crowd is only a recipe for rest in peace I stand out cause I'm a soldier in a s**er's game That paparazzi tryna shine me boy, I'm duckin' fame Some dudes call and set it up, and boy that's such a shame The only time I really stunt is in my stunner frames I love my life from the good to the bad Feel good to live with riches when comin' from rags I paint a picture boy, just give me that pen and that pad City in pieces, motivatin' the kids with the scrabs, gone
