Growing up in a musical family, Sam began singing in church at the age of five. By the time he was ten, Sam was already penning his own lyrics. Inspired by his sister who played the piano, he taught himself to play guitar, bass, piano, and drums. Sam was born a natural singer without any formal vocal coaching. His father, also a singer, is a big influence.
Sam draws his influences from such greats as Sam Cooke, Otis Redding, Eric Clapton, and Gavin DeGraw. He enjoys performing anything acoustic that has soul and is fond of rock, pop, soul, blues, jazz, and country music.
Sam has recently co-written with Jeff Scott Soto (former lead singer of the legendary rock band Journey, Talisman, Soul SirkUS, Yngwie Malmsteen). A few songs are to be released on Jeff’s new solo CD. This is what Jeff had to say about Sam: “Bro, you are the freshest new artist out there. I will be telling the world about you and if there is anything I can do to help you along, rest assured I will. People need to hear Sam Grow. You will be a superstar my friend!”
Sam has also performed with Grammy award winner Kanye West, Kat Parsons, one of the highest selling independent artists in the US, and national touring artist singer/songwriter/pianist Dave Yaden (Marc Broussard, Josh Kelley, Sheryl Crow, Willie Nelson).
Sam’s latest release “Ignition” is an infusion of Rock, Pop, and Soul that creates an enticing, new listening experience sure to satisfy the ear of a wide range audience. The first cut, “Oh So Jaded”, has become a crowd favorite. “Work in Progress”, Sam’s first CD release, is a five song EP full of Sam’s soulful, bluesy sound. The single “Meant to Be” was the featured track of the day on September 28, 2006 on GarageBand.com and the song peaked at 4.8 out of 5 stars.
This is just the start of Sam’s promising career and he has already started a buzz among the industry.
Without You
Sam Grow Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Yeah I'd probably all alone
Yeah I′d probably be down at the bottom
Too far down or too far gone
I don't know why you picked me
It still don't make sense
I don′t know why you′re with me
God sent you for me I guess
I don't know where I′d be
Without you loving me
More lost than found girl
There ain't no doubt no
I don′t know what I'd do
Yeah baby that′s the truth
Don't wanna know me without
Don't wanna know me without you
Me without you
You′d be just fine without me
Fall for another guy
And I′m sure he'd love you baby
Wouldn′t see you through my eyes
So if you ever wonder
If I know what I got
For me there is no other
Before you I swear to God
I don't know where I′d be
Without you loving me
More lost than found girl
There ain't no doubt no
I don′t know what I'd do
Yeah baby that's the truth
Don′t wanna know me without
Don′t wanna know me without you
No
I don't know where I′d be
Without you loving me
More lost than found girl
There ain't no doubt no
I don′t know what I'd do
Yeah baby that′s the truth
Don't wanna know me without
Don't wanna know me without you
No, me without you yeah
Me without you
In Sam Grow's song "Without You," the lyrics express the singer's gratitude for their significant other's presence, as they contemplate the negative potential outcomes of what their life would be like without them. The singer acknowledges that they would likely be lost in a bottle, alone, and at the bottom without their partner. They express uncertainty as to why their partner chose them specifically, but contemplate that God may have sent them to each other. The chorus emphasizes the singer's dependence on their partner's love, stating that they would be "more lost than found" without them.
The second verse of the song addresses the partner directly, acknowledging that even if they were to leave the singer, the partner would likely fall in love with someone else. However, the singer notes that the new person would not see the partner through their eyes and how special they are to them. They then affirm that there is no one else for them and they don't know where they would be without the person they love.

Yeah I′d probaby lost in a bottle
If it weren't for you, I might have been drowning my problems with alcohol
Yeah I'd probably all alone
If it weren't for you, I might have been lonely
Yeah I′d probably be down at the bottom
If it weren't for you, I might have hit rock bottom
Too far down or too far gone
I was in a bad place and you saved me from myself
I don't know why you picked me
I'm grateful you saw something in me that I couldn't see in myself
It still don't make sense
I don't understand why you love me, but I'm grateful for it
I don′t know why you're with me
I'm not sure what I did to deserve you, but I'm thankful for you every day
God sent you for me I guess
I believe you were put in my life for a reason, and that reason is to make me a better person
I don't know where I′d be
I can't imagine my life without you
Without you loving me
Your love is what keeps me grounded and gives my life meaning
More lost than found girl
Without you, I would be lost and wandering aimlessly
There ain't no doubt no
There's no doubt in my mind that I need you in my life
I don′t know what I'd do
I can't even imagine what my life would be without you in it
Yeah baby that's the truth
I'm telling you from the bottom of my heart that I need you
Don't wanna know me without
I don't want to even think about living without you
No
I need you in my life, and I won't take you for granted
You′d be just fine without me
You're strong and independent, and you could make it on your own
Fall for another guy
You might find someone else to love, but they could never love you like I do
And I′m sure he'd love you baby
Someone else might love you, but they could never love you the way I do
Wouldn′t see you through my eyes
They wouldn't be able to see all the amazing things I see in you
So if you ever wonder
If you ever question why I love you, just remember that you mean everything to me
If I know what I got
I know what I have in you, and I'm never going to let you go
For me there is no other
You are the only one for me, and I will never love anyone else like I love you
Before you I swear to God
I promise that I will love and cherish you for the rest of my life
Me without you
I can't picture a life without you in it

POT FARMER DANCE SONG %
I got out my pipe stuffed it with pot
You better believe it held a whole lot.
I whipped out a lighter thumbed up a flame
Sucked down that smoke which comforts my brain.
I tried alcohol smoked cigarettes
They did nothing but give me regrets.
My mom had arthritis could not walk around
I rolled her a joint she danced on the ground.
I thought I was losing my lovemaking knack
After I smoked some to me it came back.
Soon I decided prices were high
I searched for some ground I wouldn't have to buy.
I bargained for seeds from smokers all around
Got in my truck and drove out of town.
I walked through the woods where wild birds nest
Found me the meadow I thought was the best.
I dug up the ground sowed all my seeds
Said a small prayer for strong, healthy weeds.
I watered at night with a five-gallon pail
Mosquitoes went hungry for I wore a veil.
Seven months went by; I thought I would die
Till the Halloween moon was high in the sky.
At night I went out, in a camouflage suit
Used my corn knife to chop down the loot.
I hung it up to dry where it couldn’t be found.
Came back and got it, when it had turned brown.
I trimmed off the buds, stuffed them in bags
Called all my friends and passed out free drags.
In less than a week my crop was gone
I flew to St. Thomas with a love hungry blonde!!
