be a man

(album: SOLAR. - 2018)

[Intro:]
You tried to squeeze light out of darkness and it's not working
I've done this all my life, I don't know anything else
If I can't be this, who am I?
Who am I?

[nobigdyl.:]
Be a man, be a man, be a man, be a man
Be a man, be a man, be a man, be a man
Cut her off of my team, yeah
I don't ice her left hand, yeah
Hear 'em scream from the stands, yeah
This how you be a man
Be a man, be a man, be a man, be a man
Be a man, be a man, be a man, be a man
Cut her off of my team, yeah
I don't ice her left hand, yeah
Hear 'em scream from the stands, yeah
This how you be a man

Why those bones in my closet?
I don't know, I'm agnostic
Skeleton and got venom in and though I did it, I can't admit it
I've got an image I've conjured
Use her soul as my food
Wipe the blood off my shoe
Look at me I'm so cool
I just wanna flex
Started with a kiss and it ended with a death
I know that I'll miss
I done made a mess
I knew what the cost was when I took the debt, look
I just wanna ball, I don't listen to the refs
I just did her wrong and this isn't even like me
I've been reading Paul, I been listening to Spike Lee
Feelings got involved and I didn't do the right thing
Tell 'em be cautious
Got a hole in my conscience
"Boys will be boys, bodies are toys," I was raised with the nonsense
Treat the girl like a barbie
Body and clothes and hair
Know that it's so unfair
She got a soul in there

Be a man, be a man, be a man, be a man
Be a man, be a man, be a man, be a man
Cut her off of my team, yeah
I don't ice her left hand, yeah
Hear 'em scream from the stands, yeah
This how you be a man
Be a man, be a man, be a man, be a man
Be a man, be a man, be a man, be a man
Cut her off of my team, yeah
I don't ice her left hand, yeah
Hear 'em scream from the stands, yeah
This how you be a man

[WHATUPRG:]
Peter Pan, Peter Pan, Peter Pan, Peter Pan
Rather be a kid my whole life
Than act like the man I am, uh
Bit on the fruit like Eve, huh
Shoulda treated you like a queen, uh
I shoulda let God intervene, uh
But it's all good when I pull up, uh
Sex game got me Deeboed
She picking up my lingo
Never been with a Latino
With me, she bilingual
I know this is toxic
But she can sense my fondness
Know it's people watching
I need a pause 'cause
I might be the reason why my friends don't turn to Jesus
I been holy on the surface but a heathen in the DMs
I know you believed in me before the nonsense
It's time to

[nobigdyl.:]
Be a man
