Lyrics
Hook: What makes a man a man? It’s the situation that you go through, trials and tribulations they help to mold you, @ I cant fall, from dusk till dawn I fight for what I stand for what I stand for
Verse:1
Yo since birth, I took a lot of advice for what it was worth
Soaked the knowledge in and walked around on this earth
With incentives to use it to achieve life goals
And hoping that one day that I might strike gold
But this life is trife yo, you never know when you might go
And fall off on an early retirement
about retirement, I ain’t talking about social security
I’m talking about graveyard status, total obscurity! (bang, bang nigga!)
and that’s what one wrong move can lead too,
doctors giving you oxygen tanks to breathe through (sound effects of breathing)
the real stay in this journey, the weak come and go
life’s like a freeway with mad bumps in the road
in the beginnings a boy merging through the traffic
with cautious hands on a steering wheel trying not to crash it
as things move faster, you gotta adapt
and use more assertivness to stay were your at
Hook: What makes a man a man? It’s the situations that you go through, trials and tribulations they help to mold you, @ I cant fall, from dusk till dawn I fight for what I stand for what I stand for
Verse 2: so now I’m at the age of sixteen, a hip hop fein
I walk the streets with my niggas, just sagging my jeans
And it seems somewhere we grew a hate for authority,
Stealing merchandise from every single store we’d see
And pretty soon I’m a high school drop out
on top of that my dad just walked out the house
then there’s mom, talking all loud and greasy
saying.. son you smoke and watch too much t.v
a job is what you need see,
my whole life I joked around and laughed
and now I’m need to face the facts
my mom kicks me out flat on my ass,
I never invisioned the day when I’d have to build my own path
Hook: What makes a man a man? It’s the situations that you go through, trials and tribulations they help to mold you, @ I cant fall, from dusk till dawn I fight for what I stand for what I stand for
Till end of song
