In “Grownish,” Dave B speaks to both himself and a woman; he explains that some of the things he does is foolish, which he has no answers for, but he plans on growing up.
[Verse 1]
Why do I trust everythin' that you tell me, man
I got no answers for that
No, I got no answer for that
I got no answer for that
I’m out here doing myself and it's slow and I got no answer for that
Like I put the dot on my back
I'm young, dumb, and beautifully black
My patience is thinnin’ and I just move slower, man
I got no answer for that
No, I got no answers for that
I got no answer for that
Why can't he stop fuckin' around and just grow up, man
I got no answer for that
Mortality scare me to death
And I never wanna be that
[Chorus]
Man, nobody told me if I'm to land on my own
Two feet, I'm here actin' grown
It gon' take more than just sun
And nobody told me that it's just you by yourself
In the end, in the end
[Verse 2]
I been projectin’ my issues with trust and you might have an answer for that
’Cause I got no answer for that
No, I got no answer for that
At the end of the day when we fuck, it's just lust, man, and I wasn’t plannin' for that
So I got no answer for that
Oh, why I keep hittin' you back?
Drownin' in whiskey and spendin’ too much, you would think is the answer for that
But I got no answer for that
No, I got no answer for that
The end of the week remind me to forget it, there's always an answer for that
Yeah, I got the answer for that
I got the answer for that
[Chorus]
Man, nobody told me if I'm to land on my own
Two feet, I'm here acting grown
It gon' take more than just sun
And nobody told me that it's just you by yourself
In the end, in the end
[Verse 3]
Pistol in my bag, my hands are in pavement, God save us
No, I won't retract this shit so blatant, can't tame us
I got to, pick up the pieces
And I got to, get it together
Said I got to, find me a reason
'Cause I never, gave a fuck ever
Ice in my vein just as blue as my cheddar
She give me love and I gave her first ever
It's David the ignorant, killin' shit, spillin' his feelings and gave middle finger the internet
