Growing - CYNE
Composed by:Clyde Graham/David Newell/Michael Gersten
Would you believe he once
Ran shied from wisdom dodged man
Hood he was up to no good but understand
Circumstance had him victim
And caught in it's grasp but he was
Eager to blame shame avoiding his path at last
Finding pleasure in pain he feared change
He can't stay sober
'Cause he can't walk with sane now he
Can't call it
Twenty-one years an alcoholic
Aim's what a young n***a need f**k money life
Risky can't live the life belief frisk me
My drunk words embalm word a half glass of whiskey tipsy
'Til tomorrow come
Oh yeah the sorrow's fun
But you gotta find some beauty in illusion losing
My religion found fate with a beat I
Escape destiny's closed gates
Closed gates closed gates now open hoping
Fate wait fate wait it's time for change
As days go by my world get colder
I'm older experienced got my heart bolder
Hold up better days ahead that's what I hope for
There's beauty in the eyes of the beholder
I told ya
As days go by my world get colder
I'm older experienced got my heart bolder
Hold up better days ahead that's what I hope for
There's beauty in the eyes of the beholder
I told ya
Can you believe I once
Ran but look at me now beautiful child
Resurrected from the section n***as holding me down struggled
Through the puzzle of life the pieces are found so even
When I'm down I'm wearing a beautiful crown smile
A new day dawn a man moves on a brand
New song days are short but nights are long searching
Trial by fire life high on a wire
Give me a piece of mind I'm losing it like mariah see
Eye beholder come bringing it close so
Motherf**ker you know my soul remains older
Stronger than anything accomplish many things
The truth is the answer my wisdom is everything
Concrete slabs over the green grass but
A rose still grows from the rocks and outlasts outlasts
Concrete slabs over the green grass but
A rose still grows from the rocks and outlasts
Let's do it black people we wanna
Know life how's your's like just
Do right and be good
Take over get on it live
Your life get power
And unite we ready
Move over let's do it
Let's do it black people
Would you believe she once
Ran birthed a child but gave a d**n
Who was the father why bother understand
Circumstance had her victim and caught in the grasp the punch
Drunk love got shorty playing the task of
Mom and pop but he was a rolling stone
He couldn't stay home from cell blocks he phones home
D**n now ain't s**t funny see
Love's what a black girl need f**k money life's
*****y I can't let this b***h light fish me
Her baby came first she neglected the system like I raised
My child just look at his beautiful smile we gotta
Make it together through the pain and trials the day
Will come 'cause night can't embrace the sun
It shine so bright y'all afraid to come
Out out and this is what life's about
Shout shout 'cause this is what life's about
As days go by my world get colder
I'm older experienced got my heart bolder
Hold up better days ahead that's what I hope for
There's beauty in the eyes of the beholder I told ya
As days go by my world get colder
I'm older experienced got my heart bolder
Hold up better days ahead that's what I hope for
There's beauty in the eyes of the beholder I told ya
Ayyo just
Be who you are trust me we
All are superstars like sheep for not
Knowing the night we fight and we'd like to
See tomorrow again we shine
