New Edition - Boys To Men (Remix) Lyrics

These are the things that change boys to men

Yeah, yeah
Ooh

Growing up can be pain
You’re not a man until you’ve come of age
We’ve given up our teenage years
In the effort to pursue our careers

Who assumes responsibility
Of havin’ to support our families
Who’s protecting them from harm
Is there anyone around that we can trust

So we search for answers to our questions
Lookin’ for the answers
No answers, but we are taught a lesson every time
Through mistakes we’ve learned to gather wisdom
Life’s responsibilities falls in our hands

Keep on learning, keep on growing
Wisdom helps us understand
We’re maturing without knowing
These are the things that change boys to men

Oh, the goals we’ve set may exceed reality
‘Cause failure always is a possibility
Who can tell us that we’re wrong
It’s up to us to figure out what life is all about

So we search for answers to our questions
Lookin’ for the answers
No answers, but we are taught a lesson every time (Every time)
With mistakes we learn to gather wisdom (Whoa, whoa, whoa)
And wisdom helps us see our responsibility

Keep on learning, keep on growing (Oh, yeah)
Wisdom helps us understand
We’re maturing without knowing (Yeah)
These are the things that change boys to men

Ooh
Yeah
Yeah, yeah
Ooh...
Yeah

Keep on learning, keep on growing
Every day, every day I’m learnin’, I’m learnin’ a little more, yeah
We’re maturing (Oh, no, no) without knowing
These are the things, these are the things that turn a boy into a man

So we search for answers to our questions
(Yeah)
No answers, but we are taught a lesson (Oh now) every time
With mistakes we learn to gather wisdom
(All in our efforts, in our efforts to pursue a career, ho, oh, no, no)

Keep on learning (I know it gets hard some times, yeah), keep on growing
(Growing up can be a pain)
We’re maturing (You know what I mean, you know what I mean) without knowing
(Well, all you have to do is hold on, hold on hold on, hold on)

So we search for answers to our questions
(No, no, no, no, no)
No answers, but we are taught a lesson every time (Yeah)
With mistakes we learn to gather wisdom
(You see life’s responsibility falls in our hands, fall in our hands)

Keep on learning, keep on growing (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
(No, no, no)
We’re maturing without knowing
(See, growing up can be a pain, can be a pain, can be...)

Yeah, yeah, yeah
