Dumbfoundead - Growing Young Lyrics
Be a man John be a manUsed to get them Marlboros for dadIt made me feel grownDidn’t know the problems he hadBut he was real goneWhen he had the bottle in handHe was just dead wrongPromised that I would never grow up and be himBut I never grew up at allAnd now I’m womanizing and cheatin, drinkin heavily in the pmHavin myself a monsters ball, just like my paMy girl lookin the same way my mom didSmeared make up tears under her eyeleidsGenerations of havin a down ass chickBut we always end up *****in up that shitPointin fingers at all of my male figuresThe only thing gettin bigger is makin bout six figuresAnd everybody just shut up, when I put it on my tabAin't it sad when a visa’s the only credit you have, huhBut that’s just John and that’s how he isThat’s the only way people come into my defenseBut that’s just wrong but that’s how it isAnd it be helpin me get away with alot of shitAlotta shit, alotta shit, I wish somebody really gave me a whole of shitBut they on the dick, yea they on my dick, now my ego is getting bigger than moby dickThey see the videos, they see the heroThey take a mess and paint a muralEdit out the a- hole put in the b-rollRender the clips, and you got pure goldShoutout to B tho, that’s mi amigo, kept me in check when I was actin like a devoWhen I was steve o, he made me steve jobs, im a ceo, now look at me maNow look at me ma, I’m on my grown shit, when I mean grown I mean takin care of my own shit, now look at me pa, this is some grown shit, now what you taught me forget it I flipped the whole script, now look at me girl I’m on grown shit, what im sayin I mean it my word is golden, everything I’m sayin you’re probably thinkin no shit, I shoulda known this already, but I’m ready now
