The Grouch - Grow Up lyrics

[Hook] All they see are stars in the sky Couldn't figure out how, never understand why Me, myself, I'll lift you high Let me hear you shout now, tell 'em what it's bout child All some know is what they say Never think for themselves, who is going to lend help? We will be to ease the strain This is my brain on beats, please peep and gain Cause that's the name of the game [The Grouch] What you gonna do when reality comes knocking? When things get too serious to just stick your co*k in Any warm hole, you wanna shoot for that goal Stabilize your name and purify your soul When you're to try and hold your own like a man And sleeping on your friend's couch is no longer the plan You finally realise than everything you try Isn't always gonna work out, for ya People will ignore ya if you don't make sense You don't make sense if you live past tense Talking bout back when you used to have a heyday But couldn't do what you did then today I bet you didn't say what them gonna do now I bet the most talk translates to least style Conflicting situations, so pick and get to waiting Forget the sh** is vacant, new and greater things pop I hate to think stop when my mind says grow Like I hate to see cops when the sign says slow But anyway, oh, back to the topic Got incentive in my pocket and I practice tryna profit So, I can know that my power stays on And if I need to use insurance, my eggs will be gone Respond responsibly, better myself constantly Should I try and do, to set a cool example for you? [Hook] [The Grouch] Now what the hell I look like not knowing how to cook right? Being late to everything and never reading books, might Call me hypocrite because my lips can spit truth But living up is hard when you're young but not a youth Gotta be well respected, cool and down to earth Try and get accepted on the turf and up at work f**ing jerks wanna push ya, but you can't fight Cause then they'll want to shoot you dead, and that ain't tight Had your sights set upon a brand new apartment But at first, last, deposit, that's hard sh** And only if your credit is good, could you bet that it would Be available to you, you're sailing to a new, zone Of needing to know how to speak on the phone Proper, oper-ating Effective, that's the objective Should've taken that elective home back in high school Cause when you try to come tight, you'll probably f** up the first few times Mess up them first few lines You speak tryna sound grown I can't come weak, I'm from the town known to put it down All around the world on an intelligent level Maturity is high, discourage me the Devil He can only try if I'm believing in him I got my goals mapped out and I'm achieving them [Hook]
