As a kid you look at growing as the best thing ever
What you don’t think about is how its affected by whether
Whether you grow up or out
There always comes a pain
No matter the gain or strain
Growing up sometimes means overcoming addiction
And other times it means losing a strong connection
Growing out sometimes means doing more than you expected
And other times it means you’re alone
Feeling left out, neglected
Growing pains aren’t just physical
A lot of times they are mental
Just keep in mind with growing
You have to look at where you’re going
In due time you’ll realize your pain was a gain
