Man Up

(앨범: Same Town - 2020)

It's raining outside while my plants indoors are dying
And I'm all balled up
Like a baby hope you don't see me crying
And I know I gotta, ugh, fix my brain
It's telling me things that drive me insane
It's raining outside
But inside the waters rising

And it's saying "man up
'Cause you're not man enough"
If you show them your fears
Man up
'Cause you're not man enough
If you show them your tears
Momma said to walk away was alright
But she then found a man who ended talks with a fight
If this is what it takes to be, to be man enough
Then I don't wanna man up

It's quiet outside
But my thoughts are amplifying
They said I'd never be enough
And I don't know if I should even be trying
And I know I gotta, a, voice that's mine
But speaking feels like a waste their time
It's quiet outside
But my thoughts are amplifying

And it's saying "man up
'Cause you're not man enough"
If you show them your fears
Man up
'Cause you're not man enough
If you show them your tears
Momma said to walk away was alright
But she then found a man who ended talks with a fight
If this is what it takes to be, to be man enough
Then I don't wanna man up

But now I've got my own boys to raise
Never want them to feel the way I did
I wanna teach them how to end their talks with love

Said you don't ever have to "man up
'Cause you'll always be man enough"
You can show them your fears
Man up
'Cause you'll always be man enough
You can show them your tears
I've always said to walk away is alright
But I don't want to HEAR you ending talks with a fight
And this is all it takes to be, to be man enough
So you better man up
