Growing Pains Video (MV)

Thinking that I'd make this far was insane
Staying at the top Jeremy Lin Knicks in game
Knowing what comes out is all about the intake
Thinking 'bout the next step that's still in train
I ain't really worried 'bout what they gon' say
Project meant a lot to me in my heart it's safe
This one might blow up I might just get paid
But this stuff still hurts, growing pains

Riding beats, I ain't never let nobody bother me
From my dreams, all this stuff I study that's an -ology
Legacy, keep the name alive write a biography
Honesty, something I need to keep for the dynasty
Recently, people tried to distract me from my career
Honestly, all this thick skin protects me so I don't care
Treasury, the s-t-g-double o-r belongs here
And my dreams, they unfolding while i'm standing right here

Thinking that I'd make this far was insane
Staying at the top Jeremy Lin Knicks in game
Knowing what comes out is all about the intake
Thinking 'bout the next step that's still in train
I ain't really worried 'bout what they gon' say
Project meant a lot to me in my heart it's safe
This one might blow up I might just get paid
But this stuff still hurts, growing pains

You know when the decade turned corners
I realized i was gonna be 23 after this thing
And i was like, it hit me that you know
I don't have a lot of time
And it was just astounding to realize
That I've survived one of these things
These time stamps that seem to just guide your life away
You know, like no opportunities to do anything

Giving it my all every single time I rap now
Always on the grind man I don't even lax now
Finishing line cuz I'm on the final lap now
Get the last laugh I'm looking to the future now
All this stuff keeps happening and I don't understand how
Earn this stuff I got yourself and get back on the grind now
When the teacher calls man I just keep my hand down
I ain't tryna answer questions I'm tryna get the facts now

Thinking that I'd make this far was insane
Staying at the top Jeremy Lin Knicks in game
Knowing what comes out is all about the intake
Thinking 'bout the next step that's still in train
I ain't really worried 'bout what they gon' say
Project meant a lot to me in my heart it's safe
This one might blow up I might just get paid
But this stuff still hurts, growing pains

And I had to come to the realization that
The future is unclear and I just don't know what's coming
So in my mind it's a lot about the preparation for this future
More than it is to live in it and just get hit by it
Like being overcome with overwhelmingness
And burden that comes with this thing called time
And for me, it's just knowing that
There's a bright light at the end of the tunnel
And that you're gonna reach it

Thinking that I'd make this far was insane
Staying at the top Jeremy Lin Knicks in game
Knowing what comes out is all about the intake
Thinking 'bout the next step that's still in train
I ain't really worried 'bout what they gon' say
Project meant a lot to me in my heart it's safe
This one might blow up I might just get paid
But this stuff still hurts, growing pains
