Growth Spurt

My life been a puzzle, jigsaw
I went from a puppy to a big dog
I ain't just no runaround slick talk
Now I'm pulling strings, guitar, guitar, guitar
Now I'm pulling strings, guitar
I went from a puppy to a big dog
Now I'm pulling strings, guitar

I guess that calendar say that I'm 26
Since I was in the fifth mama told me to give them fists
Pushed me out the doorway
Chasing girls around the school, a lotta horseplay
Used to get my skin pinched if I was acting up
I pushed that line hard, was never backin up
Four minutes seem like them modules stackin up
Like man, I swear to God, the devil after us
Them tables turn quickly
I'm moving rather swiftly
It finally hit me how bad I wanted to buy myself a Bentley
I earned my respect, they holla here when I'm gone
When I touch down, I be like "Heir to the throne"
I could really change a life ya know, switch your situation
Long as people do they part I need participation
Rather see 'em in the triumph than the litigation
All their eyes be watching me, I be their inspiration

My life been a puzzle, jigsaw
I went from a puppy to a big dog
I ain't just no runaround slick talk
Now I'm pulling strings, guitar, guitar, guitar
Now I'm pulling strings, guitar
I went from a puppy to a big dog
Now I'm pulling strings, guitar

I got my mind made
Sometimes I switch and do no talking in that mind phase
My time sways got me thinkin if that grind pays
Well enough I try to balance on my hind legs
Plenty days I'd em prayed and looking for answers
How my mom raised two while battling cancer
Really trying to paint the canvas using these stanzas
Out in Kansas by my lonely like a freelancer
And my father ain't around don't make me go father
Gotta charter my ascension, make it go broader
Rest in perfection accept the rejection
I've been dreaming the dreams man I'm on my inception
Too many losses but now I'm ready to [?] my wins
Every mistake is just an ending to where I began
Just stay your focus in this life you either sink or swim
Deep in that water, Father forgive me please stretch my fins
