Grow Up Lyrics - 90s Kid - King Lil G

Good morning boys and girls ... 

You over there in that black shirt ... 

What you wanna be when you grow up? 

My mother worked two jobs, gang banging was too raw 

1993, I was bumping some of that Snoop Dogg 

Murder was the Case, my uncle caught a case 

My grandmother stressing out, I could feel her pain 

Acting older than I was, I should have been acting my age 

I had to walk to school, I got recruited to the gang 

My mother tried to do her best, on minimum wage 

But it was hard when I seen the drugdealers in the range 

Such a bad example, she didn't even know it 

I truly needed my father with me, you need to know it 

You need to know it, cause I need someone to be heroic 

Someone to motivate me when I wanna be a poet 

I truly think that I can be the dopest, maybe noticed 

Never losing my focus, but you ruined the moments 

Shit was hard in my apartment, roaches and old, carpets 

I'mma enemy target, matresses by the garbage

I know it's hard to grow up (grow up) 

I know it's hard to grow up (oh) 

But it's time to grow up (grow up) 

I know it's hard to grow up (oh) 

But it's time to grow up (grow up) 

What you wanna be when you grow up? 

I wanna be a motherfucking hustler, you better act somebody 

Yo, I wish my father never met that woman 

Broke my family up, you should have fucking left that woman 

I was eating cereal, my mama cried to sleep 

Remember the kisses I gave you on the side of your cheek? 

I made some promises, that I will make accomplishments 

And I became a criminal, please accept my apologies 

I'mma get you out this, show these rappers what time it is 

Buy you the car you needed, and have somebody to drive you in it 

My mama held my hand, standing at the bus stop 

Gave me the love I needed, the streets, covered in gun shots 

Stop making excuses, and stop going to prison 

Cause people forget about you when people don't even visit 

This is for my young homies, thinking there's no way out 

Throwing your life away, living broke, that shit is played out 

OG's tell me stories 'bout life in the pen 

A dark cell, homies lost, doing heroin

I know it's hard to grow up (grow up) 

I know it's hard to grow up (oh) 

But it's time to grow up (grow up) 

I know it's hard to grow up (oh) 

But it's time to grow up (grow up) 

And if you fall, get back up 

And just remember, everybody gotta grow up 

And if you fall, get back up 

And just remember, everybody gotta grow up 

Grow up, Grow, everybody gotta grow up 

Everybody, everybody gotta grow up 

Believe me homie, you can make it
