This song is approved and moved to home page. Go to song
Tone: [Dm]
Verse 1:
[Dm]Yeah, when I grow up, you know what I wanna be?
Take a [F]seat, let me tell you my ridiculous dreams
I wanna [Dm]rap, yeah, I know it's hard to believe
And I can [F]tell you're already thinkin' I will never succeed
But I'm o[Dm]okay with it, I admit the lyrics are weak
I've been [F]workin' on 'em, I'll be good eventually
I under[Dm]understand you gotta crawl before you get to your feet
But I been [F]running for a while,
they ain't [C]ready for me, ahh
[Dm] I know this prolly isn't really realistic
And honestly, I [F]might not ever make a difference
[Dm] But that don't make a difference, I'ma have to risk it
[F] I've been crunchin' numbers, you ain't gotta be a mathematician
[Dm] To see the odds ain't rootin' for me
I can't [F]lie though, it's kinda how I like it to be
The under[Dm]underdog, yeah, you prolly think you know what I mean
But what I'm [F]saying is they ever push me, I'm gonna swing, yeah
[Dm] I could go to college, get in debt like everybody else
[F]Graduate and prolly get a job that doesn't pay the bills
[Dm]That don't make a lot of sense to me, forget the Happy Meals
[F]I don't like the dollar menu, I would rather make a meal
[Dm]Huh? Make a mil'? Nah, I said make a meal
[F]Home-cookin', get the grill, how you want it? Pretty well?
[Dm]Everything I see is overdone to me, I'm not Adele
But [Bb]I'ma get a record deal and say hello to mass appeal
 
Chorus:
When I grow [Dm]up, I just want to pay my bills
[C]Rappin' about the way I feel -Oh,
[F]yeah-
-nc-
I just want to make a couple mil'
[Bb]Leave it to the fam in the will
-Oh, [Dm]yeah-
-nc-
I just want to sign a record deal
[F]Maybe buy a house up in the hills
-Oh, [Dm]yeah-
Might not be the [Bb]best in my field
But I [F]guarantee that I'ma die
[C]real
When I grow [Dm]up
 
Post-Chorus:
Yeah, [Bb]ayy
When I grow [F]up
Yeah, yeah, [C]ayy
 
Verse 2:
[Dm]I'ma make 'em notice me, [Dm]rhymin' like it's poetry
[Bb]Everything I oVersee, [Bb]I just like to overthink
[Dm]Mockin' me, you pay the fee, [Dm]no return and no receipts
[Dm]Those of you that don't believe, quiet, you don't know a thing
[Dm]Quiet when I'm tryna sing, [Dm]quiet when I'm making beats
[Dm]Quiet when I'm tryna think,
[F]sorry, I don't mean to scream
[Dm]I just feel like no one really gets me and it's sad to see
'Cause [F]someday I'ma grow up and show all of you it's meant to be
-[Dm]-Yeah-
Anybody wanna hear me rap? "[Dm]"No"
-nc-
Come on, let me play a couple
tracks, "[Dm]"No"
-nc-
Come on, I can spit it really
fast, "[Dm]"No"
-nc-
You think I should throw this in
the trash? "[Dm]"No"
[Dm]Tricked ya; haters, go away
before I [F]hit ya
I am not a beggar or a [F]kiss-up
[G]You don't understand? Well, I
for[Dm]forgive ya
-nc-
I am not a quitter, you ain't
really [C]think that, did ya?
[Dm]Maybe someday I could even be up on the radio
[Bb]Have a tour bus and maybe even play a couple shows
[Dm]Everybody in the crowd singing every word I wrote
[Bb]Tellin' me that I am not the only one that feels alone
[C]Huh? You feel alone? Yeah, I kinda feel alone
[F]Wonder if that feelin' ever goes away when you get old
[Dm]Will I ever make it as an artist? I don't really know
[Bb]Might not make a lot of dough
[C]I'ma have to try it, though
 
Chorus:
When I grow [Dm]up
-nc-
I just wanna pay my bills
[Bb]Rappin' about the way I feel -Oh,
[F]yeah-
-nc-
I just wanna make a couple mil'
[C]Leave it to the fam in the will
-Oh, [Dm]yeah-
-nc-
-Leave it to the fam in the will-
-nc-
-Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah-
[Dm]I just wanna sign a record deal
[Bb]Maybe buy a house up in the hills -Okay, oh, yeah-
[F]Might not be the best in my field -Ayy, ayy, yeah-
But I [C]guarantee that I'ma die real
When I grow [Dm]up
 
I just wanna pay my bills -Woo-
[Bb]Rappin' about the way I feel -Oh, yeah-
 
-Yeah, the way I feel-
Yeah,[F]Yeah, I just wanna make a couple mil' -Ayy, couple mil'-
[C]Leave it to the fam in the will -Oh, yeah, to the fam in the will-
[Dm]I just wanna sign a record deal -Woo-
[Bb]Maybe buy a house up in the hills -Oh, yeah-
 
-House up in the hills-
[F]Yeah, I might not be the best in my field
But I [C]guarantee that I'ma die real
When I grow [Dm]up
When I grow [Dm]up
