[F]
[A] [F]
[G] Yeah, when [Gm] I grow up, you know what I wanna be?
Take a [Gb] seat, let me tell you my [Dm] ridiculous dreams
I wanna rap, yeah I know it's hard to [G] believe
And I can tell you're already thinking I will never succeed
But I'm okay with it, I admit the lyrics are weak
I've been working on them, I'll be good [Dm] eventually
I understand you gotta crawl before you get to your feet
But I've been running for a while, they ain't ready for me
I know this probably [D] isn't really realistic And honestly I'm learning to never make a
difference But that don't make a difference, I'ma have
to risk it I've been crunching numbers, you ain't gotta
be a mathematician And see the odds ain't rooting for me
I can't lie though, it's kinda how I like it to be
The underdog, yeah you probably think you know what I mean
But what I'm saying is they ever push me, I'm gonna swing
Yeah, I could go to college, get in debt like everybody else
[F] Graduate and [Gm] probably get a job that doesn't pay the bills
[D] That'll make a lot of sense [A] to me if you get the happy [Dm] meals
I don't like the dollar [E] menu, I would rather make [Dm] a meal Huh?
Make a meal?
Nah, I said make a meal Home cook and get [G] the grill
Oh, you want it pretty well?
Everything I [A] see is overdone to me, I'm not a dad
But I'ma get [E] a record deal, pay a loan [Dm] to my school
When I grow up, I just wanna pay my bills
Rapping [Gm] about the way I feel, [Dm] oh yeah
I [A] just wanna make a couple [Dm] mill, leave it to the fam and the [D] will
Oh yeah, [A] I just wanna sign a record [F] deal
Maybe buy a house up [D] in the hills, oh yeah
Might not be the best [F] in my field, but I guarantee that [Gm] I'ma die [Dm] real
When I grow up, [C] yeah, ayy
[Bbm] When I grow up, yeah, yeah, [Dm] ayy
I'ma make them notice me, I'ma like some poetry
Everything I oversee, I just like to overthink
I can even pay the fee, no returning overseas
Those of you that don't believe, quiet, you don't know a thing
Quiet when I'm tryna sing, quiet when I'm making beats
Quiet when I'm tryna think, sorry, I don't mean to scream
I just feel like no one really keeps me in the [D] sad to see
Cause someday I'ma grow up and show all of you [A] it's meant to be
Yeah, anybody wanna hear me rap?
No, come on, let me play a couple [Dm] tracks
No, come [A] on, I can spit it really [Dm] fast
No, you think I should throw this in the trash?
No, trick ya, haters go away before I hate ya
I am not a beggar or a kisser
If you don't understand, well, [E] I forgive ya
I am not a quitter, you [Gm] didn't really think that, [Dm] did ya?
Maybe someday [B] I could even be up on the radio
Have a tour [Gm] bus and maybe even play [Dm] a couple shows
[D] Everybody in the crowd singing every word I [F] wrote
Telling me that I am not the only [E] one that feels alone
Huh?
You feel alone?
Yeah, I kinda feel alone
Wonder if the feeling ever [D] goes away when you get old
Will I ever [A] make it as an artist?
I don't really [Dm] know
I'ma make a lot of [E] dough, I'ma have to try [Ab] though
I just wanna pay my bills
Rapping [G] about the way I feel Oh yeah
I just wanna [Dm] make a couple mil
[B] Leave it to the fam and the will [Dm] Oh yeah
I just wanna sign a [G] record deal
Maybe buy a house up in the hills [Bb] Oh yeah
