ONLY A MAN


I still talk like i have never lost my voice
I still smile like I have never been hurt
I still walk like my leg have never been broken

Hustle, hustle, hustle
Work hard they say we do not want to see you sleep
They want me to stay up all night stand guard
Because I am a man I do not have to enjoy life? 

They said I should carry the universe alone cause it my job my responsibility, am suppose to make my family and protect them
I can't make mistake am suppose to be perfect
But it seems they forget that I am only a Man
And there is little that I can do

They said I have to be strong 
I have to be brave, I have to be fearless
They said I do not have to cry even when it hurts
Because I am a Man

They said I should not eat until my family are feed
Put food on your parents table, make them proud
They said the wardrobe of the children should not be empty
And my pocket not dry
They said you are a Man dig up their graves bury your parents 

But I am only a MAN
