K. Michelle - Can't Raise a Man

Can't raise a man, hmm
Ah, ah, ah (ah)
Ah, ah, ah (ah)
Ah, ah, ah
Hey, eh-mm
Listen!

He got older but never grew
For his life he can't tell the truth
How to love he ain't got a clue
Playing games like he'll never lose you

Try to talk to him, can't get through
Every day he's a different dude
These are the signs of a grown ass boy
Better run for the hills
I'm just trying to keep it real

You can't raise a man
He's already grown, what you gonna do?
You wonder why he acts like a boy
It's 'cause he wasn't raised right before you
Girl, you ain't never gonna change nobody
If he don't wanna, you can't make nobody
'Cause you can't raise a man
No, no

Coming home any time at night
Expecting you to let it ride
How many tears are you gonna cry?
Playing games like he'll never lose you

You know that the love is changed
How many times he called you out your name?
These are the signs of a grown ass boy
Better run for the hills
I'm just keeping it real

'Cause you can't raise a man
He's already grown, what you gonna do?
You wonder why he acts like a boy
It's 'cause he wasn't raised right before you
Girl, you ain't never gonna change nobody
If he don't wanna, you can't make nobody
You can't raise a man
No, no

Gonna take more than a miracle to change him
Just let him go
Tell me when will you decide
To do better with your life
If his momma couldn't do it what makes you think
You can train that boy to be a man? It's too late
Better off letting him go
No matter how hard you try you can't raise

You can't raise a man
He's already grown, what you gonna do?
You wonder why he acts like a boy
It's 'cause he wasn't raised right before you
Girl, you ain't never gonna change nobody
If he don't wanna, you can't make nobody
'Cause you can't raise a man

Ah, ah, ah (ah)
Ah, ah, ah (ah)
Ah, ah, ah (ah)
Can't raise a man
