Be a man, come on don't cry,
You never show feelings, at least try.
Take all that weight on those shoulders, don't buckle!
Never show weakness, laugh and chuckle.
Go to work, your job is to hustle,
power of your mind worth less than the power of your muscle.
Be a man, both strong and gentle,
Keep yourself healthy, not just physical but mental.
Be a man, show feelings, express and feel,
Everyone needs a helping hand to heal.
You might have a family to support and children to raise,
You are working hard and true, you deserve a praise.
Fighting battles within, you never make a sound,
No time for rest, run another round.
You don't need to smile and hide it,
Don't make it a law, don't blindly abide it.
Not all men are bad,
maybe you never valued the ones you had.
In the end, you do you, leave the toxic mindset behind,
Those who mind don't matter, those who matter won't mind.
