Growing Up And I'm Fine

Never got lost on this road before Never saw a scene on the street before Never got chose with the rest of the boys So I must have needed something more Always wound up in a cell for the night Always had faith from the midnight fight Always got caught by a squad car light Kicking at a slot machine Now, I got a little of Veronica, love The way she is checking me out is enough Somebody's messing my brain, growing pains Ooh, I got a little of Veronica, love The way she is checking me out is enough I'm glad to say that she's mine, right down the line Growing up and I'm fine Didn't find luck and I ran out of prayer Couldn't find much that I wanted to share Looked for a key, but I found despair Must have done something bad Now I see through to the back of this town Kind of wear love like a long lost crown Now I take pride in the way I behave Never seen stalking around Now, I got a little of Veronica, love The way she is checking me out is enough Somebody's messing my brain, growing pains Ooh, I got a little of Veronica, love The way she is checking me out is enough I'm glad to say that she's mine, right down the line Growing up and I'm fine Don't bug me 'cause he ain't your man Smell trouble on the back of your hand I won't fight, so just back down Because you know I might change my mind I can't tell you but you know what's wrong You gotta know that's she's gone, gone, gone I can tell you're not satisfied I don't want to dent your pride
