[Verse 1:] I use to think fucking up was cool Loved ditchin' class, till I didn't pass high school My dad always said it's easier to keep up Then it is to catch up But all I did was mess up Roll around the streets Get drunk and shoplift Freestyle meanwhile I continue to bullshit A teenage life, when you think you know everything About everything, and don't know a damn thing Hit the Shaw, liquor, bank, then the gas station Get to duckin', when they buckin', gang altercation We scatter, then come right back Shit riskin' our lives, but never saw it like that Few blocks down the street, couple fools get capped Nigga bullets ain't pick-y, it could of been a wrap It never hits home, till your homie get clapped You at the funeral with tears, sayin' to yourself "You Gotta Grow Up!"
[Chorus] You not a kid no more I think it's time to grow Homie you better know You know it's time to grow up Cause nigga you too grown Get out and get your own Them childish ways are gone I think you better grow up
[Verse 2:] You got a Bentley, but can't keep gas in it A Gucci wallet, but ain't got cash in it Go out to eat, it's your treat, then at the last minute Say you forgot it, never had it, wan't them to spend it Now that's an interesting thang Cause in your video Ya havin' so much blang A few days ago I heard you pawned that chain Instead of coppin' that You should of copped the food chain V-necks, mohawks, just ain't me Shit it barely looked right on Mr. T Your biker chains, designer shades, just ain't right Especially when you can't breathe Cause your pants too tight Whack beats, catchy hooks, and little ass kids Add a dance to it, and it's gone be big It's our fault, every thang done flip flopped You wanna save Hip Hop Rappers, then "You Gotta Grow Up!"
[Chorus] You not a kid no more I think it's time to grow Homie you better know You know it's time to grow up Cause nigga you too grown Get out and get your own Them childish ways are gone I think you better grow up
[Verse 3:] Niggas still cruisin' Crenshaw at 36 Your wife at home Your wasting gas Tryin' to bust a bitch At the club Acting young Wearing the wrong shit. Think your Chris Brown But you look like Keith Sweat bitch Ain't you got kids to raise Instead of acting like them nigga Act your age Why you wear a wave cap and ain't got waves Wear that shit out in public, and on church days And God damn niggas, pull up your pants Got your draws all out, what you wanna strip dance And homeboy, what you doing in the 5X You ain't that big, shits lookin' like a dress You bought a iPhone, but live in ya mama home Gotta wait till she's asleep, before you can bone You grown, you know your wrong But either way Someday homeboy you know "You Gotta Grow Up!"
[Chorus] You not a kid no more I think it's time to grow Homie you better know You know it's time to grow up Cause nigga you too grown Get out and get your own Them childish ways are gone I think you better grow up
