Growin' Up - Brownside

Life In The Hood

I Was Just A Young Ass Kid

I Used To Look Up To The Thangs

That My Real G’s Did

I Was Just A Little Youngsta

Trying To Gain My Respect

Cause Doing Jales Was My Way

To Hide The Pain & Neglect

And Pops He Left Us Alone

So I Was Just A Lil Ese

Left To Learn On His Own

And Mom She Did What She Could

But I Was Destined To Experience My Life In The Hood

And Do The Things That I Saw

And These Crooked Juras Have Determined

All My Hate For The Law

And Yeah We Went Through Some Bad

Like Eating Noodles Out Of Cups

With No Lights In The Pad

And Sometimes I Felt A Burden

When I Seen She Was Mad

And I Felt The Shame In Her Face

When She Seen Her Son Was Headed

Down The Wrong Bad Place

When I Hit The Hoes in the Bed

I Had To Face Up All These Muthafucken Shit That I Did

But I Just Acted A Fool

Running Up On Enemigas

From De Linea From School

And Ended Up In The Box

Getting Visits While I Just Stood

In My Cortez & Socks

But These The Things That You Did

If You Were Raised Inside The Varrio

Growing Up As A Kid

(Growing Up As A Kid)

Wicked ():

I Reminisce & Then I Find

Many Memorias On My Mind

So Much Stress That We Went Through

Growing Up A Knuckleheaded Fool

Aquí En Mi Corazón Esta

Las Palabras De Mi Ama

Despensa Se Que Se Aguito

Pero Fui Morro Que Solo Creció

Toker (2):

Grew Up In The Streets

I Did What I Had To Do

Fucking Up At A Young Age

A Little Hardheaded Fool

Hanging On The Block

Coming Home Late At Night

Getting Suspended From School

Behind A Punk Ass Fight

It Seemed Like Everything I Did

Got Me In Trouble With Pops

From Getting Caught At Ditching Parties

To Getting Chased By The Cops

Simon Ese, Now That I Sit Back Its A Trip

I Remember The First Time

I Sat Back & Took A Hit

It Was On After That

I Muthafucken Went Crazy

I Used To Watch Dukes Of Hazard

And Jack Off To Daisy

Damn Ese, If That Ain’t A Trip

Tell Me What Is

I Remember Getting Hard Ons

Behind A Simple Ass Kiss

Yeah That Was Me

A Little Young Ass Cabron

I Remember Mom’s Tripping

The First Time I Came Home Pelon

She Used To Get On Me

Behind Dressing Like I Did

Used To Smell My Fingers

To See If They Smelled Like Weed

Simon Ese

Straight Fucking Up At A Young Age

I Remember Robbing Fooz

With A Sawed-Off 12-Gauge

I Became Who I Became

And I’m Good At What I Do

Now I Wouldn’t Think Twice

To Smoke A Punk Ass Foo

Wicked (3):

Went Through A Difficult Time

Learning To Except The Fact

That Moms & Pops

Never Really Had My Back

All I Had Was Gangsta Rap

Plus A Pad & A Pen

Trip Out Homie

This Is How My Story Begins

Remember Sporting Chuck Taylors

And Creased Up Corduroys

The Lemon Lime Widows

Twenty Dollars Homeboy

I Been Smoking Desde Ahí

Aprendí - To Open Los Ojos

Por Eso Estoy Aquí

Wanted To Be

The Next Mexicano Rapping

Since It Wasn’t Cracking

I Went Pistol Packing

Now Lady Luck

She Forgot About Mine

I Had To Come Up

Slanging Nick Nacks & Dimes

So Until The Lord Gives Me A Call

I Will Stand Tall

Giving It My Blood, Sweat & Tears

Until I Fall

Growing Up Was A Must

My Childhood Was Gone

So Prepare For Something Wicked

This Where It Comes

We All Face Different Situations

As A Youngsta

Even Moms & Pops

Or Everybody’s Gone

Yeah You Know

The Same Ol Song
