Grown Man Sport Lyrics - Pete Rock

Natty Dread like Bob so rock steady 

With no spaghetti with meat sauce 

Maybe salads with one toss 

No bread of the sorrow cause afraid to see tommorow 

It's religion never suspicious 

You're too delicious for the tongue 

See the lungs breathe a natural high 

Just like the shirts that's so lovely 

So ask Marco Polo and I never go solo 

Cause I roll with the crew that keep the funk flows 

That make ya dance until the sisters take glance 

I hope you find romance... try your luck take a chance 

Til I enter like the Milton Plaza I'm the center 

Of it all, the fuckin' prince of the ball 

Standing six feet tall, that's a long way to fall 

But not worry, cause my vision ain't blurried 

The +I+ is hotter than the spice and curry 

So don't stress the father or you might feel the fury

Cardi B and Twitter React To 'Bodak Yellow' Hitting No. 1 On The Hot 100 

Watch Fergie's Stylish Music Video For 'You Already Know' 

So check the situation, a raw deal is what we facin' 

What's the flavour of the rules they mandate 

The climbin' gets hotter as the city gets smarter (?) 

A million one catch they tryin' to earn top dollar 

Half that mill, they straight out to kill 

I'm cultivated and destined to act real ill 

Black let up in the things of five burroughs of pain 

Only reason why the east and the west it ain't the same 

I'm twenty-something years of age and life surely ain't about hand-outs 

So I lace my plan out, hard work is levicated to an encore survival 

Considergize less and from conception to arrival 

Now that I'm here my fear shall decrease 

Learn about life makin' my way to the east 

From four square yard struggler 

The G's on time, yo god hit me with that rhyme 

Photos 

In-tro-ducin the R to the O-B-O 

You didn't know, I witness ya thoughts I'm Robodendo 

But your inventions confuse me on the surface 

Ya nervous, because your lack of purpose 

Check it, thought about it, much much later 

Should've kept it real would've been much greater 

But, you got in it like a pussy, in fact 

Bein' pussy kept your wack ass back 

Now in '95 to 2000 Rob is on some next shit 

Game type, yeah in ya heart, you know it ain't right 

Dissention among the ranks 

I'm givin' thanks to the most high for plantin' me firm 

Upon this world that's forever changin' 

The conflict that I'm engagin' 

The concert with amiss communication 

Imagine that me take the weight for some next kid short 

Yo it's a Grown Man Sport 

Yeah yeah like that 

laalalaaaaalalalaaaaaaaa 

it's a Grown Man Sport, yeah 

laalalaaalalaaaalaalaalaaaaaaaa 

it's a Grown Man Sport, come on 

laalalaaaaaaaalalalaaaaaaaaa 

it's a Grown Man Sport 

lalalaaaaalalaaaalalalaaaaaa 

this here is a Grown Man Sport 

Hold it suppose it was me speakin' on tapes 

To create a lifestyle to marinate 

Different latitudes search cocaine to food 

Excuse my move to bliss 

Eternal stress in fits 

I see the same in many, penny thoughts 

Cause honey thought I wasn't ready but willin' 

Now I'm blowin' through the ceiling 

Go real only when a nigga make me any noise 

So figure, the first letter supports the sport 

laalalaaaaalalalaaaaaaaa 

it's a Grown Man Sport, yeah 

laalalaaalalaaaalaalaalaaaaaaaa 

it's a Grown Man Sport, come on 

laalalaaaaaaaalalalaaaaaaaaa 

it's a Grown Man Sport 

lalalaaaaalalaaaalalalaaaaaa 

yeah it's a Grown Man Sport 

Like that 

This one goin' out dedicate this one to the almighty god 

Rastafari Selassie 

InI as we come of for '95 '96 

Ya live, respect
