(LYRICS)
I cannot listen to every word that’s said
Everyone’s got their own opinion to protect
You’ll do well to take most words with a grain of salt
Cause most answers don’t reside in human thoughts
How will I grow if don’t grow up at all
How will I know if I don’t know how to fall
Can’t return this independence
I must learn to take the hardest calls
Cause how will I grow if I don’t grow up at all
My mother’s words can be a melody hands down
My father’s wisdom could present me with no doubt
But as a man I want a faith I call my own
I can’t stand straight if every truth spent the night back home
Now I’m reaching, Now I’m seeking
It’s the season, It’s the time
Time to say a prayer and fly
To grow in wisdom, grow in stature
Grow in favor with my God
But it’s ok to call your folks when you’re not fine

Of course take this with a grain of salt 🧂🤣
What I'm hearing from you in this song...
1. Wisdom that only God can give.
2. Simultaneously having mature faith that also understands how to have faith like a child.
3. Yes, we only need God, we can spread out wings, yet "it's okay to call your folks when you're not fine"
Overall, no amount of feedback can express the growth that God is doing you, as a man of God. Keep on keeping on, Joseph!

Totally relate to this!! Thanks for making such a song for the young christians out there - we're all learning - but *you don't have to be blooming to be growing*.

[@AnsonTimothy]

This song is an absolute banger!!! 🔥
Thank you so much for this, I’m 16 and this is very helpful on this journey of growing up

I did not sign up to be crying at this hour 😭😭

[@ohifonlyx33]

28 and still relating to this... I feel like I would probably have had a crush on this guy if I were just a few years younger and I met him at my church lol. Or else he could be my brother. Either way, the vibe I get from his originals is that we had similar upbringing and very similar values.
