Because I am a man, I am forced to work as hard as I can
Because I am a man, I am termed weak if I don't turn the other cheek
I am called a coward of I cannot walk up to a lady and let my heart speak
Because I am a man, they forget I am also a human
And a humans got to cry, got to hide when things don't go according to planBecause I am a man, I am expected to smile even when Im sad. The world wants me to be good to them even when it's clear I am bad
Because I am a man, I should be able receive loads of rejection and heart break from a lady
And always make efforts when she cries, to hold her like a baby
But I'm done with that society expects
Am gonna try a different aspect, I just want to be the man to make you do the things you never thought you could do
I want to be your weakness the only one for you
I want to sing to you even if my voice crack
Want to dance with you even if Im dancing off the beat
I am going to tell the truth even if the truth hurts
Because I am a man, I want to be able to cry when hurt and not be looked at as a abominable person
Be loved as I deserve and not what's reserve.
