Trevor Deblase - Growing Up lyrics

[Verse 1: Rico Caine] Back in 99' When everything was fine Not a care in the world I was happy all the time I had a pa**ion for fashion Flashing and rapping Brain damaged from s**ing on batteries; Hyper-active ! f**ing up the house trying to practice gymnastics Almost broke my neck on a back flip; Cla**ic ! In school I was a bad-a** Always got my a** whipped Constantly being transferred In and out of cla**es Gained progression through lessons Aggression became pa**ive Mom thought I was possessed Brought me to see a pastor He put his hand on my head to pray I let out laughter n***as' live evil Trying to live backwards Disastrous ! Something I can't imagine As fast as the flash No captions was captured Speed racer watch but the times fly faster A nation under God Putting mind over matter [Hook:Rico Caine] It was all good when I was growing up I thought I knew it all I didn't know enough (x3) It was all good when I was growing up Growing up, Growing up Growing up, Growing up... [Verse 2: Rico Caine] 2008 young age, 8th grade No label, no name Grey Nikes with the suede More than likely had the waves Watching girls in dance cla** Practice on the stage Use to make them laugh But they rarely gave play Baddest of the dames Ashamed to claim a name That ain't popping on a team Had some hand me down shirts Hand me down pants Could of used a hand out With my hand me down swag Damn... All the things I never had Caused me to want it all And unfortunately live fast Dreams of a sports car A bad chick with thick hips Slim built in a sports bra Nasty... sh**ting on kids I had cla** with Mad bent,Prom Queen on my mattress Back bent, cloud 9 be the address Laughing... I'm a motherless ba*tard [Hook: Rico Caine] It was all good when I was growing up I thought I knew it all I didn't know enough (x3) It was all good when I was growing up Growing up, Growing up Growing up, Growing up...
