Growing Pains Lyrics by Swaco Tha Illest

Another Melodrama: A Deeper Look

2019

INTRO(Swaco & SoulChii)
Yo yo yo
Yea yea
Yo yo yo
Yea yea
And I ain’t never had no time for no childish games
Go against the grain
I had to make a way
Them growing pains
CHORUS(Swaco & SoulChii)
Said I ain’t never had time for no childish games
I had to go and buck back, go against the grain
I had to make a way
And go through all those growing pains, them growing pains x2
VERSE(Swaco & Monèt)
I was a young soul (young soul)
That was told to get old
I made my family just go ahead and feel whole (whole)
I filled a hole
But lately I feel like I don’t even fit the mold
See I’ve always been the oldest
And the boldest
And the strongest
And the world rest all on my shoulders
To live up to the legacy of moving all them boulders
Yea my mother
Was a Strong independent black women
She had me shortly after her virginity was tooken (virginity was tooken)
She was shooken
Man she was only 17 (17)
And she thought that being pregnant would just crush all her dreams (crush all of her dreams)
And it seems
As we grew we developed as a team(as a team)
Taking care of me and my brother by any means (by any means)
I remember nights up waiting for her to get home (to get home)
And thoughts of her never returning would just race through my dome (would race through my dome)
I know
I could take over if I have to (have to)
But I’m just hopping that I don’t have to (that I don’t have to)
Life comes quick
To a young black kid (young black kid)
Born by a single mother (born to a single mother)
No father figure to love em (to love em)
But at least we had each other
Emotions they were missing (missing)
My moms love was distant
I remember them nights I broke down while doing dishes
Hoping I would be another child broke by the system (broke by the system)
Not trynna be a statistic
So man I’m on a mission
I’m trynna go and get it by any means possible
Ain’t no body gone stop me bro
BRIDGE(Swaco, SoulChii & Monèt)
And I ain’t never had time for no childish games
Go against the grain
I had to make a way
And go through all them growing pains
Them growing pains
CHORUS
