Gettin' Grown — Cee-Lo

Hey Little boy you're not allowed to stay You have to evolve inevitably And I've sure come a long way

The road up ahead is so unclear Back slidin down the bottom of beer Nobody knew if I would make it here

Sweet music set me free From the statistic that I started to be I wish my mama was alive to see

The memories of pain have scarred And when I fall it's usually hard But I get up and keep followin' God

Hey, I'm Gettin' grown, (la la la la la, la la la la la) I'm gettin grown I'm Gettin grown (la la la la la, la la la la la) I'm gettin grown, hey

Now I remember the good ol' days Broads and boxes and blunts to blaze Now I got three children to raise

I never won't be perfect I know But workin on it is worse than I know Life is just learning as you go

Been selfish once or twice I had to learn how to sacrifice To live to my late nineties be nice

Every day that goes by I find It either hits me or it robs me blind God I owe you this life of mine

I'm gettin grown (la la la la la, la la la la la) I'm gettin grown, I'm gettin grown (la la la la la, la la la la la) I'm gettin grown (whistling)

Oooo, time changed but it feels the same, There's no tellin what tommorow will bring, Even if I could I wouldn't change a thang

Hey, Lord I know I'm not here to stay But thanks for wakin' me up today Prepare me for what may come my way

Say, young man, there's no need to cry Because I know you will get by Look your destiny in the eye

Everyday my heart burns to try You got to walk before you learn to fly And we all got to earn to die

I'm gettin' grown (la la la la la, la la la la la) I'm gettin' grown I'm gettin' grown (la la la la la, la la la la la) I'm gettin' grown I'm gettin' grown (la la la la la, la la la la la) I'm gettin' grown I'm gettin' grown (la la la la la, la la la la la) I'm gettin' grown I'm gettin' grown (la la la la la, la la la la la) I'm gettin' grown (fade)
