Struggle of Manhood Lyrics

They say real men don't cry, hmm, well that's a lie
Now why is it we always believing what's advertised?
At this point it's pretty evident, media is not on our side
At this point it's pretty evident, we've been living a lie
G's no longer claiming foreign territories
Now they throw up all their sets while stationed in our dormitories, we all for it
Who's to blame if we call it entertainment
What a shame, precious minds getting caved in
Whoever gave the keys to depraved men reclaim them
To guard our kids from sexual temptations
That many face at the age of eight
Cause T Pain had her shake it over 808s
Man it ain't ok, growing at a fast pace
Taught to masturbate, with the master bait
Soft porn without ppv
Just turn to national channels, late night shows on your own tv
Seek the Lord lest we be ignored
Instead we chase craves like Ryback, Feed me more
Hit the mall up and buy that, feel important
Cause you met success in em' brand new Jordans
You find that picture perfect, well to me that pitch is worthless
If success is truly purchased, so many should stay hopeless
But know this, not everything that's purchased has true val
Look at me, Christ purchased a tool bag

It ain't bout what you ought to be
But what you've become
So many gone from royal priesthood to scum
No longer let the world define you
Define you what the world is to be around you

I've seen boys get locked, and up girls get knocked up
Cause there's no man for them to call mi papa
The streets have rocked us, men retired from fatherhood
And that is the struggle of manhood

I see'em walking in the counsel of the wicked, standing in the way of sinners (Ps 1:1)
Amongst the scoffers they sit up (Ps 1:1)
And I rebuke'em like Get Up, Stand Up
But this ain't Bob Marley, I'm talking about manning up
Can't stand to see so many children abandoned
And the selfishness of man allows for disregard of damages
It's like having a daily miscarriage
Kids being killed constantly because relationships are ravaged
What are we? A bunch of savages that only seek to live a lavish life
Full of ourselves, in empty palaces?
Laying on dirty mattresses
Our perception of manhood is promiscuity, constantly smashing
But the wind drives away the chaff (Ps 1:4)
So while you're paper chasing you should be aware the paper never lasts
Yet, His steadfast love endures forever (Ps 118:1)
The Lord is on my side as my helper and intercessor (Ps 118:7)
From Massachusetts to Texas, the Holy Spirit will stretch us
If only we seek the Lord, our faith will grow, He will bless us
The blessings are in abundance, so package it up in love
Deliver it to the youth, let'em know of the God above
Real men know how to love
And teach boys how to become men and not thugs
Real men embrace their daughters, affirm with hugs
Treat their wives as queens, and Christ's their first love

You ain't a man cause you hit hard
Or cause you bag up young ladies whose body shape resembles form of a guitar
You ain't a man cause you're strapped and bust gats
While your kids are walking 'round like, A father? What's that?
You ain't a man cause you getting paid
While your ex is raising your bastard chasing that government cake
You ain't a man cause you pay your bills on time
While family time's on standby, standby
You are a man when you put it all in, no reserves
The Lord and your loved ones come first
First thing's first, you're a man when you sub-mit you life to Him
Heads be like, "Yo, I can see the Christ in him"
So please invite Him just lay down your life for Him
He'll show how to lead your house as He led you out of sin
It's a win-win, the struggle continues
But if you slip be convinced that the Lord will come get you

It ain't bout what you ought to be
But what you've become
So many gone from royal priesthood to scum
No longer let the world define you
Define you what the world is to be around you

I've seen boys get locked, and up girls get knocked up
Cause there's no man for them to call mi papa
The streets have rocked us, men retired from fatherhood
And that is the struggle of manhood
