Lavell Jones - Growing Pains Lyrics
[Hook: Josh Brown and Xiang Gomez]The more we try the more we hurtSo why do we do all this workFor what, so what, for what, so what, for whatSo long to all the ones you’ve knownWe seem to part the more we growOh no, don't go, oh no,We say don't go, and watch them go.[Verse 1: Lavell Jones]That feeling where feelings they seem to fade awayYour heart was bumpin' just like the 808Boom, boom, now you sittin' lone in your room, room like, "what I tell you huh?"Talking to yourself going back and forthLike this the same old thing that you did beforeYou, never try, and so you never learnRelationships here, but then you both get burnedReminiscing life back in my younger daysNow it seems life has me stuck all up in a mazeA wall here, a trap there, I look around, It's like no one's there, it’s like no one caresNo one sitting on my side should I get more chairsIs everybody saying like F my caresI'm walking up these endless stairsWill I ever be there?[Hook][Verse 2: Lavell Jones]I'll never give up on you when it’s difficultWhen things are going up and down like reciprocalWhen everybody talking and we getting ridiculedWhen everybody talking down and you feelin' lowWhen they ain't throwing teas man they throwin’ bowsWill we make it out this life? Only Jesus knowAnd, hmm, only time can tell, it’s either buy or sellWe by ourselves, with no one helpWhen I think I'm getting betterWhy you shoot me down?When I think I'm getting betterWhy you shoot me down?When I think I'm getting betterWhy you shoot me down?Pow, ouch[Hook][Bridge: Eric Burton]People who I knewSittin' here reminiscing bout the crewThinking bout the things that we'd usually do, when we were younger,Still breaking all the rulesStill runnin' round and we act a foolTurn my head and I see youRight over my shoulders, shoulders yeah[Verse 3: Lavell Jones]Right over my shouldersI said I was barely holding on to composureCause we were kids forced to grow up fast just thinkin’ bout our pastBut then again now it’s never overNow is it?Life without the struggle, man dog please forget itOne word to describe our life is explicitAnd if you leave boy come back and visitAnd know the game boy, don't burn your bridgesShh, do the dishes before momma wake upPeace to you, find yourself, asalaam alaikumShe was too young, rest in peace MalikaIt’s crazy how life will shape up, don't break upBut, but, but, that's the beautyAnd that's the painBut that's the joyAnd that's the rainI ain't gon' lie, I’d probably do it againMade some mistakes, but I'd probably do it the sameI'm finna have a kid man how crazy is thatBookie got murdered man how crazy is thatAaron 20 years man how crazy is thatBut I turn my head and I always see my niggas having my backAnd that’s, Derrell, Josh Brown, Andrew NewmanBut really ain't nothing new manFrom kids to now we is cruisin'Our trust and bond is the truestI pray to God we don't lose itPray to God we don't lose it.
