TO BE A MAN


 It's a lonely road, rough and tough

I wish I can explain what it's like to be a man

No one cares about how you feel, wether fine or otherwise

It's just what you provide that matters


Got a lotta weights to carry,

Lotta roles and responsibilities,

Life can really be hard on you, beat you down and push you right to the brink,

You wanna scream, but you won't make a sound

Can't cry when life gets hard, love for wife and children

We just gotta play our parts, nobody gives a damn about our broken hearts


As a man we gotta work our ass out,

every night and day 

we gotta pave our way,

our only job is to work, provide and pay the bills

no one cares if you ain't payed, you're disregarded and discarded as a human and you just can't do shit about it, can't complain.


We can't hide ourselves, nor do we expect you to understand,

it's the circle of life, as a man you provide,

they don't know what you worth till the day you die,

and that's when they start crying, then move on to another man to confide in

That's why we feel we can't hide ourselves, we don't expect you to understand

It's hard to explain what it's like to be a man.
