What does being grown mean to you?
Being grown means
Don′t we got bills that's due
Just when you think you
Caught up and
Det you might be through
You realize
You really ain′t neva
Even have a clue
When you grown
Speaking for me
I been on my own
You gotta be careful
Its not just in public
Det dey got on
Dey shiesty mask
Afraid of whats unseen
Gotta be seen
In the latest fashion
In this world
If you in this world
You gotta capitalize
Off everything
Like it or not
Figure out
How to sell your passions
Dey gone tell you det you
Not thinking big enough
About yo future
Even when you on yo
Russell Wilson
You really out here

Ciara taught us
To one two step and shit
We all waiting for her
To drop her prayer book
You already know its gone be a hit
Cuz now days
We gotta learn ways to find ways
To partner with those
That do what they say
And don't play about
Dey commitment to self
Nor the commitments
Dey make to you neither
For you I'm forever
Giving a hundred percent
Fifty-fifty could neva equal
The love and admiration
Thats something I gotta have
Dey standards too low
Dey want sum dey can grab
Damn its crazy to be grown
And to see how
Times have grown
Advancements in technology
Leading to the enhancement of bodies
But its only considered
An enhancement cuz of
Weird body standards
That have been imposed on our society and
The government still regulating bodies
What does being grown mean to you?
Being grown means
Don′t we got bills that′s due
Just when you think you

Det you might be through

Even have a clue
Everybody wanna be grown
Til it′s time to stand on they own
And nah yeen grown
If you only pay for yo cellphone
You can be grown and still Iive at home
Saving up to live on yo own
When you grown gotta be strong
To keep life going right
You can't be afraid to be wrong
Dey hollering bout being grown
And Dey doing it all wrong
Head of household is kinda bold
When u can′t prepare a meal
Or wash a bowl
Ain't did no work on yo soul
And you think you supposed
To be the one that knows
The one that god chose
Lord knows we in this world
With some grown loss souls
They keep moving the standard
Toward being the best capitalist
A gift of love is no longer a rose
It′s a rolls Royce
What does being grown mean to you?
Being grown means
Don't we got bills that's due
Just when you think you

Det you might be through
You realize

I′m so grown
I done really grown
Like technology I done advanced
From a house phone to a cellphone
Unlimited calls and text on my phone
There was a time I had to wait
Til 9 to really talk on it
If you old enough
To remember that shit
You might just be grown
I pray to the universe
That over the years
You have grown
You can be a big age
But act like you a lil age
Immature in the way
Det you engage
The way you act is
Probably the reason
People in your life keep
Burning sage
After they engage
Now a days its something
To be grown and say
I'm so shiesty
And millions more
Walking around
In ski masks just like me
I′m so shiesty
Its fuck you if you don't like me
I′ll never treat you good
But its all good
You cant do no better
Cuz they all just like me
Untrustworthy and inconsiderate
To say the least
Put on my shiesty mask
As the mark of the beast!
They all just followers
Swear det they soldiers
And dont know dey in a army
With many loss souls
Who take more pride
In they ride
Than having they
Kids at they side
Gotta be the first
Real nigga to say
If its up
Im gone ride
You know I'm gone slide
The type that don′t even
Care that its kids playing outside
