Glowing Up Against the Odds: Solo Sammy's Resilient Journey
Lyrics
They ain't wanna see me glow up like this
There are individuals who didn't want to witness my success and development.
They ain't wanna see me glow up like this
Reiteration: Others didn't want to witness my positive transformation.
They ain't wanna see me grow up like this
There were people who didn't wish to see my maturation or growth.
They ain't wanna see me grow up like this
Restating that there were those who didn't want to observe my progression into adulthood.
They ain't wanna see me glow up like this
Repetition emphasizing that some were against witnessing my success.
They ain't wanna see me glow up like this
Continuation: Others opposed witnessing my positive transformation.
They ain't wanna see me grow up like this
Reiterating that there were individuals who didn't want to see me mature or grow.
They ain't wanna see me grow up like this
Reemphasizing the resistance of certain people towards observing my development into adulthood.
They ain't wanna see me blow up like this
They didn't want to witness my significant success.
I'm a mad man and I own a stick My mama always told me boy own yo shit
Expressing a rebellious or assertive attitude, affirming self-reliance.
Never needed other niggas because I always did
Independence from relying on others due to self-sufficiency.
Always told her that I'm not like them other kids
Distinctiveness from peers, not conforming to their ways.
I was gripping hot steel with no oven mitts
Handling dangerous situations without protection or support.
And you never live once so take care your kids
Encouragement to take responsibility for future generations.
And if a nigga fuck with me he better have em hid.
Warning that anyone confronting me should safeguard themselves.
We too young to die we too hurt to live
Feeling too young to face mortality and too hurt to fully engage in life.
We always getting high never leave the crib
Preference for staying indoors and using substances to cope.
I'm just getting by I just need my rib
Struggling but desiring the presence of a significant other.
And if that's too much to ask for I got these double seals
Indication of resorting to alternatives if one's desires are unattainable.
They ain't wanna see me glow up like this
Repetition of the prior verses.

-They ain't wanna see me grow up like this
-I put my heart into this shit they ain't see me when I bled
Investment of emotions and effort unrecognized by others.
I put my all into this shit they ain't see the tears I shed
Struggles and hardships faced without acknowledgment.
And we all broke a sweat with all that work we had
Collective effort and hard work that went unnoticed.
I stayed calm in the back I was hoping that we crash
Remaining calm despite the fear of failure.
And I was tripping off the gas
Being reckless and spending money daily.
Everyday spending cash
Repeatedly making mistakes that affect finances.
I kept fucking up my bag
Struggling with managing one's resources.
I had to work with what I had
Working with limited resources.
Aye what's up with my dad
Concern about the absence or relationship with one's father.
I hope he learned from his past
Hoping for personal growth and change in the father figure.
I bet he know that I'm the man
Asserting self-confidence and identity.
Had to trade the love for bands
Exchanging love for material gain.
They ain't wanna see me glow up like this
Repetition of earlier verses.
