Man's World

[Intro]

All I ever did was love you man

All I ever wanted you to do was love me

I'm a part of you

[Verse 1]

This is a man's world

That's what my old man told me

In the living room listening to the oldies

Playing dominoes drinking shots of stolies

With his friends we refer to them homies

Drug dealers and addicts some parolees

Pimps and mac superflys and goldies

I remember everything the cat showed me

How to kick it with the females and roll weed

It seems pop took more time to scold me

I figured that was his little way to control me

Through hard times he never did console me

His daddy I bought his old colby

I was his son but you didn't really know me

I lived life pretending things was rosy

Standing firm on the concrete below me

A part of you old dude low and behold me

[Refrain]

Everything is yours this a man's world

Now get your ass off the phone with them damn girls

Chasing nuts the downfall of the damn squirrel

Get your head in them books man

Stand up straight and look in my eye

I'm hard on you cause I love you

And that's no lie

I'm sorry about the bruise on your face understand

You're still my son I'm still your old man

[Verse 2]

I don't really understand everything I do

So please help me out I'm like you part 2

My old dude was something to see

My only idol everything I wanted to be

All I want to know is what you wanted from me

I did more right than wrong

And that's the reason I write this song

It's therapy for my mind while I light the bong

Shit hurts, but I feel like life goes on

Be a man suck it up

By fifteen I'm ducking left hooks and uppercuts

I fought back in many ways it made me toughen up

Surely it's the reason this limited love with us

It's something I won't get past soon

That's real proof that time don't heal all wounds

But still I learned a lot you see

When I have a son now I know how not to be

[Refrain]
