Make a rap song that talks about how we grew up
Lyrics
[intro]
Yeah, uh, we came from the dirt, look at us now
Grew up, grew up, ayy
[verse]
Back when kicks was hand-me-downs, laces torn and frayed,
Block parties bumpin' boomboxes till the break of day,
We'd chase the ice cream truck, quarters scraped from couch cushions,
Dreamin' big on stoops, sippin' Kool-Aid dilutions.
Summer nights, fireflies dancin' in the humid air,
Catchin' 'em in jars, wishin' wishes without a care,
First bikes no trainin' wheels, scrapin' knees on concrete,
Mama yellin' "Come inside!" but we ghost like a sneak.
School fights in the yard, lunch traded for a laugh,
Notebooks filled with doodles, future plans just a half-baked craft,
Pops workin' double shifts, smell of grease and sweat,
We'd mimic his walk, pretend we runnin' the set.
Neighborhood kings with slingshots and stickball games,
Dodgin' stray dogs, callin' out names in the flames,
Of backyard barbecues, ribs smokin' slow,
That's how we grew, roots deep, now watch us grow.
[chorus]
We grew up, yeah we grew up (grew up, grew up)
From playground scrappers to bosses holdin' it up
We grew up, through the pain, through the rain, no givin' up
Look back at the struggle, now we rise, fill the cup
Grew up, grew up (ayy), we grew up
From the bottom, yeah we grew up
[verse]
Teen years hit like thunder, hormones crashin' wild,
First crushes in hallways, notes passed, hearts beguiled,
Sneakin' out windows, blunt wraps in the park,
Talkin' 'bout the world, leavin' permanent marks.
Lost a few soldiers to the streets' cold grip,
Sirens wailin' nightly, tears we learned to flip,
Into fuel for the fire, hustlin' corner to corner,
Fake smiles for the po-po, minds gettin' sharper.
Dropped out dreams shattered, but we pivoted quick,
Flippin' packs or paintin' walls, dodgin' the snitch,
First loves that burned hot, left ashes in the chest,
Learned trust is earned slow, betrayal's the test.
Parties turn to problems, bottles empty by dawn,
Friends turn to phantoms when the drama get drawn,
But we stacked them lessons, turned scars into stories,
Grew up gritty, now glory in our territories.
[chorus]
We grew up, yeah we grew up (grew up, grew up)
From playground scrappers to bosses holdin' it up
We grew up, through the pain, through the rain, no givin' up
Look back at the struggle, now we rise, fill the cup
Grew up, grew up (ayy), we grew up
From the bottom, yeah we grew up
[break]
[verse]
Now bills stack higher than the dreams we once chased,
Nine-to-fives or grind modes, keep the family laced,
Kids of our own runnin' wild like we did back then,
Breakin' the cycle, teach 'em wins over sins.
Weddin' bands and mortgages, responsibilities mount,
But flashbacks to the block keep our fire account,
Mentorin' the youngins, sharin' war tales from the front,
How we climbed from
