Lyrics Growing Pains - Lavva

Coming out of a 10 year spell
All that self hatred was holding me down
Couldn′t find my place
In a world so cold
I was lost and found
Till my soul rebirth
And now I feel so exposed
My heart on my sleeve
Can't hide it no more
I love so passionately
And sometimes I can crash, ya see
The highs and lows
Be wrecking me
I swear I feel everything
I′m trying not to absorb
Like "what's my pain
And what's yours?"
Baby one things for sure
All these battles got me sore
All these things I endure
Got me breaking down
On the kitchen floor
Got that warrior in my blood
Sometimes I just really need a hug

Feel like I′m going through some
Growing pains
Every moment feel like initiation
Swear that I′m going through some
Growing pains
Sometimes I can't explain it
Feel like I′m going through some
Growing pains
Hella changes, different situations
Swear that I'm going through some
Growing pains
Sometimes I can′t explain it

Aye aye
This ain't what it′s cracked up to be
Breaking all these curses and shit
Why I feel my back on the wall?
Why I feel like I can't relate?
It's getting claustrophobic in here
My crown just hit the ceiling, I swear
All I hear is "just let it go"
This reality is too much to bear
Family dropping like flies
I know, all angels gotta fly
I know ancestors gonna ride
Help me find my purpose in this life
Give me the strength
To go cut through these lies
Yeah I can survive
But I wanna thrive
Put me in flight
To go touch the sky
This caterpillar turning butterfly

Feel like I′m going through some
Growing pains
Every moment feel like initiation
Swear that I′m going through some
Growing pains
Sometimes I can't explain it
Feel like I′m going through some
Growing pains
Hella changes, different situations
Swear that I'm going through some
Growing pains
Sometimes I can′t explain it

Used to roll up
And run from my feelings
I'm the most anxious one in the building
These emotions be fogging my vision
Tried to drown myself with pills and spirits
I was numb for a while, I was missing
I′d be lying if I said I ain't miss it
Cuz all this pain in the world I be feeling
All this weight of the world I be feeling

Feel like I'm going through some
Growing pains
Every moment feel like initiation
Swear that I′m going through some
Growing pains
Sometimes I can′t explain it
Feel like I'm going through some
Growing pains
Hella changes, different situations
Swear that I′m going through some
Growing pains
Sometimes I can't explain it
