Growing Pains

[Hook] Getting all these thoughts in my head Cause I know that things will change Yeah I know that things will change Getting all these thoughts in my head Cause Tomorrow won’t be the same But tomorrow won’t be the same [Verse 1: Classified] I pull up to the traffic light, red light, coasting Glancing the rear view as your eyelids slowly closing Adjust the radio turn it lower and let your song play Slowly go to sleep get some rest it’s been a long day I don’t need too much I just want to make my kids proud Wishing that her life can stay as peaceful as it is now Nothing stays the same though, day in to day out The forecast changes so you got to keep your raincoat close I hope that you and your sister can work through the bruises and blisters The sibling rivalry when you argue and bicker Lot of pain lot of joy You’ll go through what I went through with her Ain’t nothing to it if you keep your family rooted, ughh Don’t grow up too quick Enjoy the freedom when you’re young before you lose it You already trying to tell me that you a big girl I’m scared as hell to let my little baby grow up in this big world I will be asking where you’re going who’s your friends what you up to Over protective but that don’t mean I don’t trust you I just don’t trust everybody you go party with I’ve been in your position baby girl I know how hard it is [Hook] [Verse 2: Classified] And I know that you won’t agree with my rules Probably around the time you attending high school I’ll tell ya don’t smoke, don’t drink, or buy booze You’ll say that I’m a hypocrite cause I do it and get high too But do you really wanna look and feel like I do? At your age you don’t want to walk in my shoes Get up your marks get up your smarts get up your IQ The real party it don’t start until after high school So don’t stress who’s popular and less dressed Forget the peer pressure ain’t no one to impress Besides everyone in high school who seem cool That’s it; they usually never see their dreams through There’s so many right and wrongs when you raise a kid I just want that father and daughter relationship I know in time, that we’ll argue and you’ll hate me But I pray to god you’ll thank me Like dad I’m glad you raised me [Hook]
