Growing Up Lyrics by LIL TAY

LT1*

2024

[Intro]
I'm afraid, I'm afraid of growing up
I'm afraid, I'm afraid of growing up
[Verse 1]
I learned early that the ones you love can turn against you
Barely 12 before the lunch bell rang and sent me into
Empty bathroom stalls, I just want it all
Shoot myself till I get out this place
Where's my camera? 'Cause I don't think that they get the picture
No one loves you 'less you're dying, rich, or made of glitter
All I've left behind, was it ever mine?
Close my eyes and watch it fade away
[Pre-Chorus]
Time is so hard for me to trust
And timе, will I ever have еnough?
I'm afraid of growing up
[Chorus]
I'm afraid, I'm afraid of growing up
I'm afraid of growing up
I'm afraid of growing up
[Verse 2]
Fuck their expectations, I'll make my own reputation
A little older now, but that's no cause for celebration
I've been through way too much, this body's out of touch
And I lost myself somewhere in LA
[Pre-Chorus]
Time is so hard for me to trust
And time, will I ever have enough?
I'm afraid of growing up
[Chorus]
I'm afraid, I'm afraid of growing up
I'm afraid of growing up
I'm afraid of growing up
[Bridge]
Late nights, bright lights
I know I'll miss these times
Tonight, let's ride
Don't wanna waste my life
I'm afraid of growing up
[Refrain]
I just wanna be young tonight, don't wanna worry 'bout tomorrow
I just wanna be young tonight, and dance, dance on my own
I just wanna be young tonight, this once, it's gonna get me borrowed
I just wanna be young tonight, and dance, dance on my own (I'm afraid)
I just wanna be young tonight, don't wanna worry 'bout tomorrow (I'm afraid, I'm afraid)
I just wanna be young tonight, and dance, dance on my own (I'm afraid of growing up)
I just wanna be young tonight, this once, it's gonna get me borrowed (I'm afraid)
I just wanna be young tonight, and dance, dance on my own
[Outro]
(Afraid) I'm afraid
(Afraid) I'm afraid of growing up
I'm afraid of growing up
