Auburn - Growin Up lyrics

rate me

See my girl sitting alone

went to ask her girl what's wrong

seen her starin at her phone

she said im havin problems at home

i said i know what your going through

she said no i dont think you do

'could tell she wanted me to go away

but something said no Auburn stay

i said just tell me what's on your mind

she said no i dont have the time

i said well can we at least pray

then she turned around to say....

-chorus- (Repeat x2)

growin up was real hard for me

watchin daddy beat mommy 'til she bleeds

i was young but i still stayed by her side

now i cry and i pray to god but i wonder why....

i said girl i had no clue

she said yea, well now you do

i watched her as she checked her hair

she said i gotta be some where

i said well where you headed to?

she said somewhere with this dude,

i met him at the club last night,

i dont really kno 'em but he seems right

i said well girl what is he like,

i dont think you should be alone

she said dont worry i dont trust no man,

i learned that from livin with my dad

i ain't my mom's i'll be just fine

im just tryna go an get mine

i looked at her like she bumped her head

then she turned around an said...

"growin up was real hard for me"

-cellphone rings-(talkin/singing)

(girl) hello

(boy) where you at? you ready

(girl) yea, im outside

(boy) i brought my homies, that's cool?

(girl) guess it's alright

(boy) you all by yourself?

(girl) yea

(boy) sure aint nobody else

(girl)yea

(boy) ight im on my way

-hangs up-

-verse 3-

can't you see what's goin on

they tryna get you all alone

she said that's usually how it is,

you're treating me like iam a kid

i said girl you just turned 18,

about the same age as me

she said girl i dont need your help,

im doin fine all by myself

i said well dont get help from me

can we please get on our knee's

please before you go that way

can we please kneel down an pray

-praying-

father, we come to you whole heartedly

and i ask that you hear our pray

and you give her the heart and the mercy

to look past her father's mistakes

just as you have been mercyful to her all of these years

but i kno you see what she goes through

and i kno you've been tryna reach her

but god she was deaf'nd and blinded with hatred

but now she's here lord and we're ready to listen

she's ready to listen

Amen

your body is my temple

an your a precious jewel

dont let no one take that away

i kno just what you go through

cause every night i heard you

it's just you couldn't hear me

so dont worry bout your mother

or your little brothers

i took them just to ease their pain

but i love you just to use you

i see how he abused you

but all of that will change today

-chorus- (Repeat x2)[fades away]

growin up was real hard for me

watchin daddy beat mommy 'til she bleeds

i was young but i still stayed by her side

now i cry and i pray to god but i wonder why....
