GROWN MAN
Part I

[Intro]
Ooh, ooh-ooh
Uh, yeah

Man of the house before I put down my sippy cup
And I raised my momma, n***a, wasn't no time for slippin' up
Kids laughin' at me, we was broke, I wasn't drippy much
Angry ass black boy, get so mad, I stick him up
No matter how hard shit get, I never reach out to my pops
Fuck that, I never hit him up
And when I get older, I'ma have the game hit him up
I'm a grown man, I don't need your pity much
Word to Bankroll, I seen real roaches crawl out the Froot Loops
All I wanted to be was like ***, he had the deuce, deuce
I'm a grown man, ain't shit you can tell a n***a
One day, I'ma be the shit, know that you can smell it, n***a
Yeah, and let me tell it, n***a

[Chorus]
I'm a grown man, I'm a grown man
I'm a grown man, I'm a grown man (Ooh, ooh-ooh)
I'm a grown man, I'm a grown man
I'm a grown man, I'm a grown
[Verse 2]
Uh, nineteen, had to move out
I had no place to go but I can't have moms goin' through my shit (Ooh, ooh-ooh)
Grab my studio equipment and clothes then I dipped
I was at shorty's spot, year and change where I lived
Whole time I was feelin' like a little ass kid
She takin' care of a n***a
Makin' sure a n***a eatin' every day, get to work, get established
I couldn't pay for shit when we went out 'cause I ain't have shit
Feelin' like Jody, n***a, ant was like sweet P
We was out doin' anything but peace treaties
Still tryna feel like I'm the man in the relationship
But truth be told, lookin' back, she ain't need me
Little ass boy, tryna sell his mom Percs off
And I cause my girl hell, I deserved to be murked off
Treatin' everybody in my life like if they didn't have me, they would be worst off
But I'm the real jerk off, uh
And I can tell my truth these days, n***a 'cause

[Chorus]
I'm a grown man (Yeah), I'm a grown man (Ooh, ooh-ooh)
I'm a grown man, I'm a grown man
I'm a grown man, I'm a grown man
I'm a grown man, I'm a grown

[Beat Switch]
Part II

[Intro]
Ah, ah-ah
Mm-hmm, mm-hmm
Ah, ah-ah (Huh)
Mm-hmm, mm-hmm
Uh

[Chorus]
Walkin' around with my head low (Head low)
Runnin' from my name on headstone (Headstone)
Lord, wrap Your arms around me
I can feel the evil's drownin' me
I said, walkin' around with my head low (Head low)
Runnin' from my name on headstone (Headstone)
Lord, wrap Your arms around me
I can feel the evil's drownin' me (Haha, haha, haha)

[Verse]
Yeah, uh
How many times can the Lord forgive me?
How many times can I ignore the spirit of the chose one is within me?
It's like I know it but I can't see the day that he pick me
How many times can I cry out? Lord, permit me
How can I be about a dollar when I'm savin' up pennies?
How can I really think that I could ever live to my twenties
When evil all around? I watch my OG kill his kidneys
He say he all fucked up, his son like me sellin' dope
His first daughter fucked, sellin' pussy and throat
He not even mad at 'em, they livin' all that they know
His ex-wife livin' in spirit, she overdosed
His new wife he hate, we laughin', she do the most
I say, I see everything that's around me changin'
Lost in my thoughts so my mind be racin'
Thinkin' that these rap n***as gotta be fakin'
How can I get this deal? I gotta make it
He tell me, "Slow down, young n***a, you need patience
You the type to ruin your blessing 'cause you was racin'
The Lord give you hope, the Lord give you frustration
You the type to make the wrong turn, the destination
You keep fucking 'round with n***as off of temptation
You type to end up on a premmy vacation, the dead
Justa n***a with a gift who couldn't reap the benefits 'cause you was out here in the 6 bullshittin', uh
And made your own momma heart cry for you, uh
Don't die for no city that won't die for you, yeah"
[Chorus]
Walkin' around with my head low (Head low)
Runnin' from my name on headstone (Headstone)
Lord, wrap Your arms around me
I can feel the evil's drownin' me (Haha, haha, haha)
I said, walkin' around with my head low (Head low)
Runnin' from my name on headstone (Headstone)
Lord, wrap Your arms around me
I can feel the evil's drownin' me
I said

[Outro]
Huh
