To Be A Man - Dax

Lyrics by：Daniel Nwosu Jr./Alex Nour

Composed by：Daniel Nwosu Jr./Alex Nour

I can't hide myself

I don't expect you to understand

I just hope I can explain

What it's like to be a man

It's a lonely road

And they don't care 'bout what you know

It's not 'bout how you feel

But what you provide inside that home

Yeah I know this life can really beat you down uh

You wanna scream but you won't make a sound uh

Got so much weight that you've been holdin'

But won't show any emotion as a man that goes unspoken

That we can't cry when life gets hard

Unconditional love for women children and dogs

We know that we just have to play our parts

And don't nobody give a d**n about our broken hearts yeah

As a man we gotta pave our way

Our only function is to work and slave

There's no respect for you if you ain't paid

You're disregarded as a human and you can't complain

And if you ever make it up and actually reach that place

And find a woman that you love and give her your last name

You'll feel the things that you provide is only why she stays

And when you try to explain you'll say

I can't hide myself

I don't expect you to understand

I just hope I can explain

What it's like to be a man

What it's like to be a man

It's a lonely road

It's a lonely road

And they don't care 'bout what you know

Care 'bout what you know

It's not 'bout how you feel

But what you provide inside that home

Don't give up keep fightin'

As a man our son is our horizon

And our fathers' actions play a role and we end up like him

So they can't let us see them hurt

'Cause they'll embody what we do and start a generational curse

No wonder most men are so depressed

All the things that they can't express

They go to war get thrown on the shelf

Then go back to war with they mental health

Then grab that bottle and ask for help

Try to pull themselves out of hell

Then fall back down and then realize

That they gon' have to do it themselves

It's the circle of life as a man you provide

They don't know what you're worth 'til the day that you die

And that's when they start cryin'

Then move on to a man to confide in

That's why we feel

We can't hide ourselves

We don't expect you to understand

We just hope we can explain

What it's like to be a man

What it's like to be a man

It's a lonely road

It's a lonely road

And you don't care 'bout what we know

Care 'bout what we know

It's not 'bout how we feel

But what we provide inside that home

Inside that home

That home

It's not 'bout how we feel

But what we provide inside that home

Inside that home
