[Lyric] Growing Up (Reptile (old music))

[Verse 1]
It’s kind of funny how kids brag about their age
I try to do it but I don’t even have food on my plate
Grew up with nine siblings, and one of them was sold
Slapped with a belt covered up with a red blindfold
Education was tough, we can’t afford it for a day
We see kids have allowance when we don’t even get paid
And we’re the ones getting displayed, with our old friends who betray
It’s like you come in and come back with your own barricade

[Chorus]
Hello, I come from outer world
I'm here to save the boys and girls
I’m an angel, I’m about to pick this up
Rich kids and family, that's their only best of luck
I find it sad, no its not really that open
God, answer me, cause I was the one who was chosen
Hearing all the giggles and the laughter
Jesus, speak to me, you’re the one who wrote this chapter

[Verse 2]
When I was eleven, momma passed away and went to heaven
It was depression
I always questioned my daddy, “Why her to step in?”
Spitting venom, wearing denim, holding weapons, never learnin' lessons
I was the only one to cry and show my own expressions
But it was unbelievable how a child could live this way
And I pray no one in the world would live like this and decay
And every birthday, all I did was sit down and break away
From all the deadly things that happened
To my people who never earned the crown
[Chorus]
Hello, I come from outer world
I'm here to save the boys and girls
I’m an angel, I’m about to pick this up
Rich kids and the family, that's their only best of luck
I find it sad, no its not really that open
God, answer me, cause I was the one who was chosen
Hearing all the giggles and the laughter
Jesus, speak to me, you’re the one who wrote this chapter
