Growth
Nixx Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I don't wanna do what I did no more
I don't wanna be where I been no more
I don't wanna be around who I used to bang with
They say you become the ones you hang with
That's growth baby
That's growth baby, yea
That's growth baby
I just wanna be better than yesterday, yea
That's growth baby
Trynna grow, trynna be a better person
Letting go of everything that isn't serving me and no
I don't know, where this path is finna take me but I'm certain
That for growth, I gotta ghost past versions of my own, yo
See I used to be a lazy motherfucker with no motivation
Smoking, drinking crazy with no other structure, just complacent
On the train home from Philly cause I thought I'd skip class
I guess it's fair to say that I was on the wrong track
It appears though I was hanging wit a bunch of weirdos
Kids with wealthy families trynna hustle, it was weird bro
Trynna be like Gucci, they been in and outta county, it's pathetic
Just to turn into nobody, anorexic
It's perplexing, but luckily, I took a different path
If I knew then what I knew now then I'd be stacked
But it's okay, it don't matter I suppose though
Cause I'm where I'm at now and all that we can really do is grow so
I don't wanna do what I did no more
I don't wanna be where I been no more
I don't wanna be around who I used to bang wit
They say you become the ones you hang wit
That's growth baby
That's growth baby, yea
That's growth baby
I just wanna be better than yesterday, yea
That's growth baby
Yo, we just trynna grow
Three, two, one, let's go bro, geronimo
They had potential but it's mental and it's time to show
Ain't nothing promised but I promise you I gotta know
I came from nothing, now it's nothing but a lot of dough
Now when I'm pissing in a pot, it's a pot of gold
Always did what I wanted which was not as told
You could of did what I did but you not as bold
Been chasing dreams since I was 18
Life a gamble, you don't get to wipe the slate clean
But the struggle mixed with hustle is what make kings
More than streams cause I plan to do some great things
Make dreams and create scenes
Break seams, ya'll just make memes
Still hungry so I might just lick the plate clean
It was destine, from a peasant to a great king
I don't wanna do what I did no more
I don't wanna be where I been no more
I don't wanna be around who I used to bang with
They say you become the ones you hang with
That's growth baby
That's growth baby, yea
That's growth baby
I just wanna be better than yesterday, yea
That's growth baby
I don't wanna do what I did no more
I don't wanna be where I been no more
I don't wanna be around who I used to bang with
They say you become the ones you hang with
That's growth baby
That's growth baby, yea
That's growth baby




I just wanna be better than yesterday, yea
That's growth baby
