You Was Supposed To

[Chorus]
You was supposed to grow, you was supposed to glow
You was, you was, you was supposed to grow
Youu was supposed to glow
You was, you was, you was supposed to grow
You was supposed to glow
Yo, yo, you was supposed to grow, you was supposed to glow
You was, you was

[Verse 1]
You was supposed to walk across the stage when you graduated, yeah
You was supposed to make your momma smile, she glad you made it, yeah
You was supposed to hit the prom with your favorite girl right on your arm
You was supposed to be the one your friends congratulated, yeah
You was supposed to work so hard, save your money and get that car
You was supposed to flex on the ‘Gram, nobody thought you’d get that far
You was supposed to turn your music up, let your windows down
You was supposed to go out cruising, huh, drive your friеnds around

[Chorus]
You was supposed to grow, you was supposed to glow
You was, you was, you was supposed to grow
Youu was supposеd to glow
You was, you was, you was supposed to grow
You was supposed to glow
Yo, yo, you was supposed to grow, you was supposed to glow
You was, you was

[Verse 2]
You was supposed to make your sister proud, get that scholarship
You was supposed to move out momma house, go be a college kid
You was supposed to smile, you was supposed to laugh, you and your homies
You was supposed to pass liquor 'round, takin’ them bottle sips, for the first time
You was supposed to know you was only tryin’ it
You was supposed to know that the globe is bigger than your environment
You was supposed to supposed to see your goal and always keep your eye on it
You was supposed to go from saying “I’m renting it” to “I own it”

[Chorus]
You was supposed to grow, you was supposed to glow
You was, you was, you was supposed to grow
Youu was supposed to glow
You was, you was, you was supposed to grow
You was supposed to glow
Yo, yo, you was supposed to grow, you was supposed to glow
You was, you was

[Verse 3]
You was supposed to slow your roll, dating all them ladies, huh
You was supposed to meet your soulmate and have some babies, huh
You was supposed to feel that love, feel that bond, feel that trust
You was supposed to go the whole way, ain’t no maybes, huh
You was supposed to live out all your days, with your family
You was supposed to find out all the ways you can live happily
You was supposed to age, you was supposed to breathe
You was supposed to be
But now that ain’t gon’ happen, see?

[Outro]
‘Cause they took that all away from you
In the blink of an eye
Took all the possibilities away from you
In under two seconds
The car drove up
The cops got out
And Tamir Rice fell
Rest in peace Tamir Rice
You was supposed to, live
