Eddy Nicholas - Growing Pains Lyrics

Uh
I been focused that's just how I'm living
Ima go and get what's mine I don't need no permission
The kid bout to act up
I'm guessing I need detention
Tryna get my fam a crib
As lofty as my ambitions
Moms got a mortgage
I'm tryna pay it off
Tryna make life a movie
It could get crazy dawg
Moving like a G
Making plays like a PG
Can't play at all
Since 13
Held the goal down
Nobody raided our
Determination
I been humble
Focused and patient
For my turn been waiting
Turbulently turning the pages
Of every chapter I write
Only right
I lap all the races
Playing with the hand I'm dealt
I turn every card into aces
Looking at the faces
Of my loved ones
Is motivation
I gotta chase greatness
I gotta be more than basic
This for everyone counting on me
To be the one to make it
Ima go and find the bar
And ima raise it

I know what I gotta be
I know what I gotta be
Now and forever for me
I'm on this grind
And I never could leave
It's in my mind
What I gotta achieve
It's just me and my team
Just a couple youngings following dreams
Never fold never broke or leaned
I know the journey get mean
But I got us and that's on me
Said I got us and that's on me

At 10 years old
I put the pen to the page
At 16
I really understood that I could be great
At 17
I dropped Eventually
I started my race
And now I'm 19
Guess this is my coming of age
Cuz through the years
I had to grow
Felt pain
That you wouldn't know
Feeling like Terrance Howard
I put hustle into my flow
Times where I felt like quitting
Made me stronger than most
So I'm a shoe in for success
This passion deep in my soul
Woah
Any doubt I never mind that
Seen myself falling off wondering where my mind at
Mentally I'm good but I ain't satisfied where I'm at
I've always seen the bigger picture
Like I'm up at iMax
I ain't tryna step back
I ain't tryna find that
I made it to the end
Still wondering where my time at
I gotta get it know
I'm so committed I can't hide that
I'm 10 toes down
I ain't never turning my back

I know what I gotta be
I know what I gotta be
Now and forever for me
I'm on this grind
And I never could leave
It's in my mind
What I gotta achieve
It's just me and my team
Just a couple youngings following dreams
Never fold never broke or leaned
I know the journey get mean
But I got us and that's on me
Said I got us and that's on me

This a open letter to my closest
I can't lie
I've had the moments
Where I felt as hopeless
Like what if I go my hardest
And nobody notice
Like what if I ain't the artist
They deliver the roses
But I'm chosen
By the most high
There's no limit
There's no sky
Ain't a leap I won't take
Ain't a level I won't fly
To get to where I'm headed
My path illuminated
When I think of all of y'all
That's when I chase it

I know what I gotta be
I know what I gotta be
Now and forever for me
I'm on this grind
And I never could leave
It's in my mind
What I gotta achieve
It's just me and my team
Just a couple youngings following dreams
Never fold never broke or leaned
I know the journey get mean
But I got us and that's on me
Said I got us and that's on me
