Upper West
I Won’t Grow Up
[Hook: Peter Pan Excerpt]
I won't grow up
I won't grow up
I don't wanna go to school
I don't wanna go to school
Just to learn to be a parrot
Just to learn to be a parrot
And recite the silly rules
And recite the silly rules
If growing up means it would be
Beneath my dignity to climb up trees
I'll never grow up, never grow up, never grow up, not me
I, I won't grow up
[Verse 1: Upper West]
Tell mom I don't ever wanna grow up
Even if money show up and the money starts to blow up
So what, yeah I will be young forever man
Fly away with Peter Pan
Hi and wave to Neverland
I'm up late with Letterman, no bed-time
And who said better with age damn, no red wine
See, we just wanna stay kids in the city
Opposite of Adults, shout out Chiddy Bang
Young and pretty, but we take away the picture books
Break the little crayons, and replace them with a sicker hook
And they be sayin' we naive and immature
But my rebuttals I couldn't agree with you more
We at the door knock knock then we break it down
On a sugar high so we gonna play around
How does being famous sound, pretty good I guess
Run this playground game, call us king recess
No stress we kept the pretty girls laughing
Still the same now but it happens to be through rapping
We snacking instead of napping
Like captain jack or aladdin
We trapped in the disney magic
Stay back from the kiddy havoc
Hey monster in the attic, be gone sir we had it
Kids and we livin lavish, got trix so I'm not a rabbit
See, we're never growin up, boy can't hurt to try
We at work but we young no shirt and tie
[Hook: JFink]
I'mma do what I want to
Call me immature so what
I'mma have this on wish come true
I won't no I won't grow up
I'mma have fun foever
Tell me that I can't so what
I know being young is better
I won't no I won't grow up
[Verse 2: Upper West]
Being a kid has allowed me to groove
So I been thinkin' about drinkin from the fountain of youth
While you're running round stressed I'm just loud in room
Singin little short stories that'll keep me consumed
Cuz right now, I feel on top of the world
And I'm really never coming down
So I'mma keep doing my thing
As a kid tryna live with my feet above ground
Yeah, tell me if I'm gettin' old
But you can't cuz I'm not I'm in bed at home
Dreamin of demons, images and fantasies
And you can't picture my mind, no cameras please
He's like, the coolest kid alive
Growin ever younger on that Upper West Side
Tryna to survive with my eyes on the prize
Locked in this age, finish line in disguise
Sighs eyes rolled screamin 'Dougie act your age'
Look What you've become this not how you were raised
Unphased when they say there will always be a day
When you throw away the young mind hidin' in your brain
But me, I honestly beg to differ
I'm a youngin running wild over rocks in the river
Simmer down, order in the court
My visions god-given man minority report
[Hook: JFink]
I'mma do what I want to
Call me immature so what
I'mma have this one wish come true
I won't no I won't grow up
I'mma have fun forever
Tell me that I can't so what
I know being young is better
I won't no I won't grow up
