Why you wanna play your games on me? Why you wanna play your games on me? I'm seeing helicopters, helicopters, hovering over my head And if I don't switch my colors, I'll get nabbed by the feds And I ain't ever listen to what Simon never said 'Cause last time he told me something, I was almost dead 'Cause his left foot's in and his right foot's out And that'll have you stuck up in the [?] no doubt So I take a different route when I'm riding with the heat Because [?] is like hide and go seek So you can cover your eyes then count to ten By the time they open up, that's when the fun begins Because they know where you live and got a picture of your face They see you do it big, busting [?] by the case And once you got the [?] they even make it back to base They started playing manhunt and ran up in your place And until they build a case, they ain't gon' quit And by the time you get touched, they'll be saying "This is it" I'm too grown for these childish games I'm too grown for these childish games If it ain't about a dollar, don't holler my name I'm too grown for these childish games Why you wanna play your games on me? Why you wanna play your games on me? Red light, green light, 1 2 3 I'm blowin' through the light, [?] me 'Cause they couldn't fool me when I was walking out of [?] shop So my foot is on the petal like a game of hop scotch On the [?] block, the rules are so clear If you don't take a seat like musical chairs Then a game of cops and robbers will get you a few years Unless your crew hears that a bullet in your back Got your family dressed in black like Miss Mary Mack And that's why I'm strapped in the truck or the Coupe 'Cause that's the second time I ducked, like the next word was "Goose" If I must regroup then I'm asking "Mother, may I? If you don't mind, can I stop by and say 'Hi'" But only for a minute, cause this checkers, not chess And my game is spin the bottle, I make women undress Which made me decide like rock, paper, scissors Now playtime is over so I finally get the picture I'm through playing all these childish games Then I drop the Chuckii Booker on her I'm too grown for these childish games I'm too grown for these childish games If it ain't about a dollar, don't holler my name I'm too grown for these childish games Why you wanna play your games on me? Why you wanna play your games on me? It's getting easier to recognize the realer from the fake 'Cause there's children in the business and they steady playing games While the kids patty cake, daddy got a patty cake batter How much can I make in a matter of a day? When it all boils down to plans and handshakes They say "Damn, the man", 'cause damn the man takes A damn shame, playing these game since first grade When our brains' being trained, no way we can change A high school of who's cool and a who's who The new clothes and new shoes, all the woo-woo This ain't news, I ain't fooled by the same fool Name same rumors, truth just ain't true, so At 24, I'm more on the side of rhyming Mind opened wide, the lies will not blind me This my time, I use my time wisely Slide to the side, you guys is too childish I'm too grown for these childish games I'm too grown for these childish games If it ain't about a dollar, don't holler my name I'm too grown for these childish games Why you wanna play your games on me?
