Composition


"Growing Pains" is a pop song with influences of R&B.[3][4][5] Lyrically, the song discusses a loss of innocence and the "inevitable struggle of growing up."[3]


Music video


An accompanying music video directed by Alan Masferrer premiered June 20, 2018.[6] It is set in a dystopian environment meant to represent the oppression of others' influences.[7] Cara begins the video in an oversized shirt before being pushed around by suit- and mask-wearing adult figures and being forced into an oversized grey suit herself.[6] Lilly Milman of Billboard wrote that the video finds Cara "navigating an obstacle course of adulthood."[7]
