It's alright / to tell me / what you think / about me

I won't try / to argue / or hold it / against you

I know that / you're leaving / you must have / your reasons

the season / is calling / and your pictures / are falling down



The steps that / I retrace / the sad look / on your face

the timing / and structure / did you hear / that he fucked her?

a day late / a buck short / I'm writing / the report

on losing / and failing / when I move / I'm flailing now



And it's happened once again

I'll turn to a friend

someone that understands

sees through the master plan



But everybody's gone

and I've been here for too long

to face this on my own

well I guess this is growing up

well I guess this is growing up



And maybe / I'll see you / at a movie / sneak preview

you'll show up / and walk by / on the arm / of that guy

and I'll smile / and you'll wave / we'll pretend / it's okay

the charade / it won't last / when he's gone / I won't come back



And it'll happen once again

you'll turn to a friend

someone that understands

and sees through the master plan



But everybody's gone

and you've been there for too long

to face this on your own

well I guess this is growing up



Alright stop, collaborate and listen

Ice is back with my brand new invention.

Something grabs a hold of me tightly

Flow like a harpoon daily and nightly

Will it ever stop? Yo, I don't know.

Turn out the lights, and I'll glow

To the extreme I rock a mic like a vandal

light up a stage and wax a chump like a candle

Dance, bum rush to the speaker that booms.

I'm killin' your brain like a poisonous mushroom

Growing up



I guess this is growing up

I guess this is growing up

I guess this is growing up

I guess this is growing up

I guess this is growing up
