Rap 1: Yo, I'm a man, a vessel of strength, they say But inside, I'm battling demons every day They paint us as stoic, emotionless blocks But we're fragile too, broken up into flocks Chorus: Manhood, a mask we wear Hiding tears, fears, and despair Beneath the tough exterior, a heart that's sore We're warriors, but we're wounded to the core Rap 2: Pressure to provide, to be the breadwinner But when times get tough, it's a heavy endeavor Expected to be strong, never to show weakness But sometimes, we just need a moment of meekness Chorus: Manhood, a mask we wear Hiding tears, fears, and despair Beneath the tough exterior, a heart that's sore We're warriors, but we're wounded to the core Bridge: We're taught to be tough, to never give in But even the strongest walls can begin to thin We're human, flawed, and imperfect But we're also capable of great respect Chorus: Manhood, a mask we wear Hiding tears, fears, and despair Beneath the tough exterior, a heart that's sore We're warriors, but we're wounded to the core Outro: So let's break free from the chains of this mask And embrace the vulnerability that's in us, at last We're more than just
