When I Grow Up Lyrics By Nf

    yeah when i grow up you know what i wanna be
    take a seat let me tell you my ridiculous dreams
    i wanna rap yeah i know it’s hard to believe
    and i can tell you’re already thinkin’ i will never succeed
    but i’m okay with it i admit the lyrics are weak
    i’ve been workin’ on ’em i’ll be good eventually
    i understand you gotta crawl before you get to your feet
    but i been running for a while they ain’t ready for me ahh
    i know this prolly isn’t really realistic
    and honestly i might not ever make a difference
    but that don’t make a difference i’ma have to risk it
    i’ve been crunchin’ numbers you ain’t gotta be a mathematician
    to see the odds ain’t rootin’ for me
    i can’t lie though it’s kinda how i like it to be
    the underdog yeah you prolly think you know what i mean
    but what i’m saying is they ever push me i’m gonna swing yeah
    i could go to college get in debt like everybody else
    graduate and prolly get a job that doesn’t pay the bills
    that don’t make a lot of sense to me forget the happy meals
    i don’t like the dollar menu i would rather make a meal
    huh make a mil’ nah i said make a meal
    homecookin’ get the grill how you want it pretty well
    everything i see is overdone to me i’m not adele
    but i’ma get a record deal and say hello to mass appeal

    when i grow up i just want to pay my bills
    rappin’ about the way i feel oh yeah
    i just want to make a couple mil’
    leave it to the fam in the will oh yeah
    i just want to sign a record deal
    maybe buy a house up in the hills oh yeah
    might not be the best in my field
    but i guarantee that i’ma die real
    when i grow up

    post
    yeah ayy
    when i grow up
    yeah yeah ayy

    i’ma make ’em notice me rhymin’ like it’s poetry
    everything i oversee i just like to overthink
    mockin’ me you pay the fee no return and no receipts
    those of you that don’t believe quiet you don’t know a thing
    quiet when i’m tryna sing quiet when i’m making beats
    quiet when i’m tryna think sorry i don’t mean to scream
    i just feel like no one really gets me and it’s sad to see
    ’cause someday i’ma grow up and show all of you it’s meant to be yeah
    anybody wanna hear me rap no
    come on let me play a couple tracks no
    come on i can spit it really fast no
    you think i should throw this in the trash no
    tricked ya haters go away before i hit ya
    i am not a beggar or a kissup
    you don’t understand well i forgive ya
    i am not a quitter you ain’t really think that did ya
    maybe someday i could even be up on the radio
    have a tour bus and maybe even play a couple shows
    everybody in the crowd singing every word i wrote
    tellin’ me that i am not the only one that feels alone
    huh you feel alone yeah i kinda feel alone
    wonder if that feelin’ ever goes away when you get old
    will i ever make it as an artist i don’t really know
    might not make a lot of dough
    i’ma have to try it though

    when i grow up
    i just wanna pay my bills
    rappin’ about the way i feel oh yeah
    i just wanna make a couple mil’
    leave it to the fam in the will oh yeah
    leave it to the fam in the will
    yeah yeah yeah yeah
    i just wanna sign a record deal
    maybe buy a house up in the hills okay oh yeah
    might not be the best in my field ayy ayy yeah
    but i guarantee that i’ma die real
    when i grow up
    i just wanna pay my bills woo
    rappin’ about the way i feel oh yeah
    yeah the way i feel
    yeah i just wanna make a couple mil’ ayy couple mil’
    leave it to the fam in the will oh yeah to the fam in the will
    i just wanna sign a record deal woo
    maybe buy a house up in the hills oh yeah
    house up in the hills
    yeah i might not be the best in my field
    but i guarantee that i’ma die real
    when i grow up
    when i grow up
