[Verse 2]
And I remember the good ol' days
Broads and boxes✦ of blunts to blaze
But I got three children to raise
I-I-I, I-I'm never gon' be perfect, I know
But workin'✦ on it is worth it, I know
Life is just learnin' as you go
Mm, been selfish once or twice
I had to learn how to sacrifice
To live to my late nineties be nice
Ooh, mm, and every✦ day that goes by is divine✦
Resentment just robs you blind
God, I owe you this life of mine
[Chorus]
I'm gettin'✦ grown (La-la-la-la-la,✦ la-la-la-la-la)✦
I'm gettin'✦ grown
I'm gettin'✦ grown (La-la-la-la-la,✦ la-la-la-la-la)✦
Gettin'✦ grown
[Verse 3]
And, ooh, time's✦ changed, but it feels the same
There's✦ no tellin'✦ what tomorrow will bring
Even if I could, I wouldn't change a thing
And hey, Lord, I know I'm not here to stay
But thanks for wakin'✦ me up today✦
Preparin' me for what may come my way
And hey, as a young man, there's✦ no need to cry
'Cause I know you will get by
Look your destiny in the eye
And, oh-oh,✦ every✦ day my heart burns to try
You've got to walk before✦ you learn to fly
And we all got to earn to die
[Chorus]
I'm gettin'✦ grown (La-la-la-la-la,✦ la-la-la-la-la)✦
I'm gettin'✦ grown
I'm gettin'✦ grown (La-la-la-la-la,✦ la-la-la-la-la)✦
Gettin'✦ grown
I'm gettin'✦ grown (La-la-la-la-la,✦ la-la-la-la-la)✦
I'm gettin'✦ grown
I'm gettin'✦ grown (La-la-la-la-la,✦ la-la-la-la-la)✦
I'm gettin'✦ grown
I'm gettin'✦ grown (La-la-la-la-la,✦ la-la-la-la-la)✦
I'm gettin'✦ grown
I'm gettin'✦ grown, (La-la-la-la-la,✦ la-la-la-la-la)✦
I'm gettin'✦ grown
