To be a Man
To be a man is not to be of age.
To be a man is to take a stand.
To be who you are is to be a man.
To be a man is to enjoy the day.
It'd be a lie to say that men don't cry,
When men who cry are men who are true.
True to themselves and true to love.
Men who love are men of joy,
While men who hate are not men at all.
Men who hate are mere children
Beaten and scared by life.
Children who have not yet learned to love,
Children who have rejected forgivness.
To be a man is to take a stand.
To be who you are is to be a man.
To be a man is to enjoy the day.
It'd be a lie to say that men don't cry,
When men who cry are men who are true.
True to themselves and true to love.
Men who love are men of joy,
While men who hate are not men at all.
Men who hate are mere children
Beaten and scared by life.
Children who have not yet learned to love,
Children who have rejected forgivness.
