You look at the window
And you see the sun
You see that your future
Has already begun

You try to believe
In the things that you hear
Boy, don't you see
You succumb to your fear?

It's not enough
To understand
You have to start
Being a man

You have fight
For all you have
But you keep missing
It instead

Be a man, be a man
Go for your dreams
Be a man, be a man
Dry all your tears
(2x)

You try to paint the picture
But it's never clear
Tomorrow is calling
But you never hear

It's not enough
To understand
You have to start
Being a man

You have fight
For all you have
But you keep missing
It instead

CHORUS

Be a man, make amends
Say what you feel
Be a man, understand
You're standing still

And when you find out that you can

You'll start believing like a man

You will be living like a man

You'll have to start to understand

You will be fighting like a man

A man

Amen.
