  • I crush brunch like a mother, hold the bread like a hustler
    Wife was the light of my life, but we fight
    'Cause she backseat drives like no other
    Yo, and I don't know about you, but I'm feeling 32
    So a couple hairs gray in the mirror yesterday
    But I'm still enjoying the view

    This is what it feels like, whoa oh oh oh oh (whoa oh oh oh oh)
    I said, this is what it feels like, whoa oh oh oh oh (whoa oh oh oh oh)
    I pay the bills, I make deals
    But I still know how to get wild
    'Cause I'm a grown-ass man
    I'm a grown-ass man child, baby (whoa oh oh oh oh)
    Child, mama (whoa oh oh oh oh)
    I'm Peter Pan with a Cuban in my hand
    I'm a grown-ass man child, mama (whoa oh oh oh oh)

    I know a little too much now
    I look but I don't touch now
    Young enough to fly, old enough to realize
    The sky got nothing on the ground (ah ooh)
    I'm not afraid to be a human
    Know my flaws and I use them
    Been through the fire and I burned out fine
    But I cry with the right type of music (ah ooh)

    This is what it feels like, whoa oh oh oh oh
    I said, this is what it feels like, whoa oh oh oh oh
    I pay the bills (bills), I make deals (deals)
    But I still know how to get wild (oh yeah)
    'Cause I'm a grown (grown)-ass (ass) man
    I'm a grown-ass man child, baby (whoa oh oh oh oh)
    Child, mama (whoa oh oh oh oh)
    I'm Peter Pan with a Cuban in my hand
    I'm a grown-ass man child, mama (whoa oh oh oh oh)

    I'll have a second bowl of Oreo a la mode
    Watching my favorite show, rocking custom socks and boxers (ooh)
    Flash Pass at Six Flags, I'm a master Monopoly badass
    Loser grows a mustache and must wear it to her parents (no)

    I'm a grown-ass man child, baby (whoa oh oh oh oh)
    Child, mama (whoa oh oh oh oh)
    I'm Peter Pan with a Cuban in my hand
    I'm a grown-ass man child, mama (whoa oh oh oh oh)
    Child, baby (whoa oh oh oh oh)
    Child, mama (whoa oh oh oh oh)
    Belated kid in a Mercedes-Benz
