Be A Man - JMSN

I see it in the distance

It’s not a physical thing

It’s like this reoccuring dream

See… see, I wanna get back to that, but

I know my life is much more

My purpose is much bigger than that

I’mma have to do something bigger

So that’s when I realized that…

I gotta be a man

I gotta take control

I gotta step up

Cause who’s gonna do it for me?

I still think of you

When I’m home alone

And it’s a quarter to two

I look at my phone

Now I know I’m not gonna die

Come on now, child

You know I got too much pride

You know I got too much pride

Nobody’s gonna change my mind

Nobody’s gonna ask the reasons why

I tried to make you understand

What it takes to be a man

All I seek is the truth

All I get is sticks and stones

So tell me, what do I do…

With these broken bones?

Cause I’ve been walking for miles

Come on now, child

You know I’ve heard too many lies

Ain’t trying to waste no more precious time

Nobody’s gonna understand

Nobody’s gonna hold my hand

Oh lord knows I tried to understand

What it takes to be man

Be a man

Be a man

Be a man

Be a man

Nobody’s gonna understand

Nobody’s gonna hold my hand

Oh I tried to understand

What it takes to be man

And nobody’s gonna waste my time

Don’t you ever ask me why
