mavenyx - grow lyrics
[verse 1]
and yes, i know it’s a moment
that i’ma grow from
i just don’t know at the moment
from where the growth comes
will it be sweet or be bitter
i bit my whole tongue
so i won’t feel the difference
the minute i’m not gon’ hold tongue
i’ll just admit it and knock on wood
but i’m timid, like it’s
chopping down the whole trunk
to ask/axe for what
i wish you would tell me
and when you leave
will i make a sound
or keep drowning it out
and gasping for air?
i got full lungs, with the liquid of frenzy
and i’m not privy to knowledge
of what a friend sees
when you’ll be living in college
i’m sitting, wondering
how am i making ends meet?
i’m still rehearsing a pretend speech
tryna learn the lesson
that they can’t teach
feel like these burdens get heavier
every second’s a version
of some perverted millennia
well ahead of ya
compared the hurt to water and trees
if growth‘d come from that
the dirt is not a bother
it’s the best means
[chorus]
so let’s keep on growing, growing, growing
even if we never show it, know it, own it
old flames are glowing, glowing, glowing
even if the wind’ll blow it, oh it’s going
going strong, at the fullest, fullest, fullest
but things change at a moment’s notice
so it’s… only good to keep
growing, growing, growing
and before the door closes, hope it opens
[verse 2]
and every time i talk with you
it’s like we’re walking through
our memory lane
but then we be paving it
at the same time
so much we share that
we don’t have to explain
i took an opportunity and
watched how everything changed
like it was destiny, fate
a year ago, it was too awkward to say it
but now we have so many
long conversations
so now i hope that it’s a great sign
and yet i know that you’ll be
crossing the states for your college
i’d hate if we break lines
like line breaks in my poetry
if i tumble, do you mind if i’m
taking the world with me?
nah, that’s so extreme
i gotta appreciate the times we get to speak
and not the silence that’ll go between
they’re only slight intermissions
before the scene
and i’m writing my script
say that it’s a long road
i gotta just drive it a bit
sowing the seeds
i’m still a sprout but
i’ll grow higher a bit
we’ll keep evolving
and it doesn’t just survive if it fits (yeah)
[chorus]
so let’s keep on growing, growing, growing
even if we never show it, know it, own it
old flames are glowing, glowing, glowing
even if the wind’ll blow it, oh it’s going
going strong, at the fullest, fullest, fullest
but things change at a moment’s notice
so it’s… only good to keep
growing, growing, growing
and before the door closes, hope it opens
[verse 3]
i’ve been unhealthy as h+ll
just tryna force myself to show
what i’m not ready to tell
i had this thought that you would go
and then forget me as well
but now i know that’s premature
because our friendship developed
to something larger than
i ever could expect
and it’s only beginning
thought i took a loss but overall
i’m still currently winning
texting you for hours
and it’s awesome
i’m certainly grinning
even when you’re gone
we’ll stay in touch
and the world’ll keep spinning
all these conversations made me realize
you’re a puzzle piece
that’s perfectly fitting
before, i said that if i don’t confess
i wouldn’t forgive it
but if i did it then
we’d prolly be finished
i gotta wait until that moment where
there’s nothing else to do but admit it
but i still got a long road ahead
ready to drive it, and then
i’ll know just how the story ends
for now i won’t pretend to know it
‘cause all that pressure
really bends a poet
yeah, i’m just grateful for the chance
to be together, growing
[chorus]
so let’s keep on growing, growing, growing
even if we never show it, know it, own it
old flames are glowing, glowing, glowing
even if the wind’ll blow it, oh it’s going
going strong, at the fullest, fullest, fullest
but things change at a moment’s notice
so it’s… only good to keep
growing, growing, growing
and before the door closes, hope it opens
[outro]
i wrote that months ago
now, i don’t have to be that broken boy
used to think you wouldn’t like me
used to wonder what’s the point
lost inside a maze of misconceptions
but i changed up my directions
and i finally can say i’ll let myself enjoy
the… fruit of my labor
i gained a friendship that i never…
knew i would gain for…
a moment, but i let it happen
despite the odds, and all the time i lost
i made a line across
and now we’re talking pretty often
it’s my favorite habit
if life were made of fabric…
i wove you into mine
our bond is durable like corduroy
we’ll stand the test of time
i was that boy with a hole in his pants
scared he’d be throwing his chance
now i’d be more upset if i’d never tried
so i don’t need to keep
regretting my actions
if they brought me to
the place that i’m at
it’s perfect as it is
just gotta let myself be happy
and keep following this path
we built together
and see where it leads us after this
