[Chorus]

Man, I swear I ain’t a kid no more

Look  how big I’ve grown

Can’t  tuck me in the bed no more

Tell me so I know

Understand you ain’t a kid no more

I  see that you’ve grown

Can’t  pull me by a thread no more

You need to let go


[Verse 1]

Tegan,  you tweaking, you fell off the deep end

This what you believe in, it be so misleading

Like you, I know you probably chill on the weekends

You say that you’re working, but probably sleeping

Plus,  you staring at 2 screens still

Notice you don’t want the green, but I know the queen will

I be trying to guide you around you know I mean well

But we got different ideas of Dreamville

You want to be this, you want to be Cole

You want to get rich, don’t want to be broke

But listen to this, stay in control

‘Cause you never know if you’re going to blow

Or if you flopping, I want you to top it

But listen up close to me while we’re on the topic

Want you to go to college, engineer and get some mileage

And to be honest son I hope you use your logic and profit


[Chorus]

Man, I swear I ain’t a kid no more

Look how big I’ve grown

Can’t tuck me in the bed no more

Tell me so I know

Understand you ain’t a kid no more

I see that you’ve grown

Can’t pull me by a thread no more

You need to let go


[Verse 2]

Hey, Tegan it’s your mother, I love you like no other

But know that you got to be a role model for your brothers

I know this is a marathon, but you ain’t no runner

I got to judge the book and all I see is the cover

You and your dad are arguing like all the time

Engineer or business, I am trying to mind mine

Behind his back you know how I feel right

We together, but I want to take your side

It’s Taven and Tayden, you know our mindset is basic

But while we’re on the field or court you going off in the basement

We know you ain’t on vacation, ‘cause we pop in on occasion

And we want you to live the dreams that you’re steadily chasing

We believe in you so, so, much

You the oldest brother, you are the crutch

We know when we need you, you coming in clutch

But we wonder why we always feel like we are judged


[Chorus]

Man, I swear I ain’t a kid no more

Look how big I’ve grown

Can’t tuck me in the bed no more

Tell me so I know

Understand you ain’t a kid no more

I see that you’ve grown

Can’t pull me by a thread no more

You need to let go


[Verse 3]

Of course, I’d love to be Drake

But if I’m not that’s okay

‘Cause you can live off you’re music, there is a million of ways

And I am not trying to say I’ll make a million today

But when I’m making music, nothing take that feeling away from me

Dad, you know I am trying to get the bag

But sometimes it’s about more than that

I love working everyday, I don’t slack

There’s a different way to make it from the past

Momma I swear that I love you and father

‘Cause you two the reason I’m working way harder

You on the sidelines I try not to bother

But you are the person I spill out my heart for

Tayden and Taven, I’m going to make it happen

You grinding for sports and I’m constantly rapping

To show you how to fight, so never lose sight

I want the best for you both your future’s looking bright, yeah


[Chorus]

Man, I swear I ain’t a kid no more

Look how big I’ve grown

Can’t tuck me in the bed no more

Tell me so I know

Understand you ain’t a kid no more

I see that you’ve grown

Can’t pull me by a thread no more

You need to let go
