Grow Up, Right Now

They want to do the grown up Like they really grown up Until that child sprung up Now they like hold up But it’s too late now Just take care of your child Wish you wouldn’t have laid down Can’t change your decision now But even though you have a kid you still got a life to live It’s gone be hard to gain, now that you got to give Now how you gone make it Just because you need it don’t mean that you can take it Better start praying Baby daddy like, I’m gone Should have known That after he comes he’s gone I heard it so many times He tells her lies, so he can get between her thighs Knowing its wrong, but it feels right He shouldn’t have ever lied He shouldn’t have ever tried He shouldn’t have left his pride But now it’s gone and he shouldn’t have said goodbye So this is my only advice, They want to do the grown up Like they really grown up Until that child sprung up Now they like hold up But it’s too late now Just take of your child Wish you wouldn’t have laid down Can’t change that decision now He told her that he loved her Took advantage of her Thought he could move on to another But now he got a baby mother Chuck you stuck like glue How can you deny the kid, when he looks just like you? Can’t get new tennis shoes because child support due And for the baby mothers who baby daddy strays Don’t trip it was probably for the best anyways More than likely he wouldn’t have done much if he stayed Just another dead beat daddy that give men a bad name So all I can say is Keep fighting through the struggle Keep pulling when they tug you Keep walking through the tunnel Keep making a rebuttal And think before you Want to do the grown up Like you really grown up Until that child sprung up Now you like hold up But it’s too late now Just take care of your child Wish you wouldn’t have laid down But you can’t change that decision now
