Grown Man Lyrics By Lil Wayne
Dawg, you gotta feel me on this one
What it be like, dawg?
I'm on some, some adult, grown-up type shit
Look who I be around, ****, look who I been around, ****
Jeezy, Juvie, Turk, B and Slim
Dawg, pay attention, dawg
Age is nothing but some digits, ****, trust me on this
'Cause I think I speak for everyone when I say life is a bitch
I ride DL in the CL, gun right in my grip
I slip a clip in every whip 'cause haters likely to trip
Come home to my future wife, and every night she'll flip
She end up catching rights to her lip behind diapers and shit
But I light me a spliff, drink Henny without the ice when I'm pissed
Go to the club and start a fight thinking I'm Tyson and shit
But I'm a man so I'm able to handle my situations correctly
And I know I might be young, but **** gon' definitely respect me
But in the meanwhile I'm fighting gun charges in court
And in a couple of weeks, our next tour about to start
It's like I'm never happy now, 'cept for the fact my daughter saying, "I love you, Daddy" now
And that kinda juice me up, but I smoke 'bout 3 blunts and puff a cooler, boost me up
And say a prayer for every day, just so I get through the stuff, but I be like
Aw man, it's complicated doing everything on your own, man
Being responsible for everyone in ya home, man
And when you feel like everything is going wrong, man
I'm gon' stand 'cause I am a grown man
It's complicated doing everything on your own, man
Being responsible for everyone in ya home, man
And when you feel like everything is going wrong, man
I'm gon' stand 'cause I am a grown man
I try to keep my head up, but I die to keep my bread up
And usually I'm fed up thinking everything's a set up
But I get up and stick out my chest and clutch on my nuts
And I get hit up with all kinds of stress and put up wit' the stuff
Just trust me, it's tough, but I maintain to climb through it all
And I still manage to be Lil Wayne, therefore I shine and I ball
And, dawg, I live for today and hope and pray there's a tomorrow
And I borrow confidence from out my heart when things get awful
And I'm often on the edge, stuck without a solution
Someway I still figure it out and shuffle out the confusion
And I don't need nobody, so keep yo' advice and just doubt me
'Cause y'all cats don't really know me, y'all just know about me
But my dawgs be on my side, they keep me covered with spirit
And plus I know my father's watching and my mother's the dearest
And I ain't never say I thought they ain't appreciate what I do
But just know if I wasn't a man, we wouldn't make it through, but I be like
Aw man, it's complicated doing everything on your own, man
Being responsible for everyone in ya home, man
And when you feel like everything is going wrong, man
I'm gon' stand 'cause I am a grown man
It's complicated doing everything on your own, man
Being responsible for everyone in ya home, man
And when you feel like everything is going wrong, man
I'm gon' stand 'cause I am a grown man
Who would have known that this would someday turn out so hectic?
But I chose my own life, so I gradually accept it
And I'm influenced and affected by the way it became
And I don't play with it at all, so I don't say it's a game
And even though I grew up hard and I have gracefully changed
I'm always street, so I'll forever be facing a change
And I keep the slang contained on the waist of my pants
And I demand respect from all, if not, I'm wasting a man
And if I want it, then I get, and if I need it, I have it
Take care of the family first, plus the liquor and weed is the habit
And ever so often, I'm congratulated for the succeeding at last
But when they turn they back, I just have Jesus leading my path
And I ain't ask for you to like me, I don't care if you hate me
But don't mistake me, no other man can ever make me or break me
Now I be faithfully inspired by the hood till I'm gone
And, dawg, I do believe I'm grown so I'll be good on my own, but I be like
Aw man, it's complicated doing everything on your own, man
Being responsible for everyone in ya home, man
And when you feel like everything is going wrong, man
I'm gon' stand 'cause I am a grown man
It's complicated doing everything on your own, man
Being responsible for everyone in ya home, man
And when you feel like everything is going wrong, man
I'm gon' stand 'cause I am a grown man
It's complicated doing everything on your own, man
Being responsible for everyone in ya home, man
And when you feel like everything is going wrong, man
I'm gon' stand 'cause I am a grown man
It's complicated doing everything on your own, man
Being responsible for everyone in ya home, man
And when you feel like everything is going wrong, man
I'm gon' stand 'cause I am a grown man
Believe that
