to be a man Songtext
von Martin Luke Brown

I walk around, looking down, with my head down low
Something rests on my chest so uncomfortable
I don′t know what this is
I didn't ask for this
Call my mum, call my dad, call a therapist
Or walk around, looking down, with my head down low
I had a friend, now I don′t, he was 29
He didn't know how to be, how to live this life
Yeah we've all read the stats
Yeah we can do the math
It′s not like he died in a crash or had a heart attack
I had a friend, now I don′t, only 29
Is this what it's like
I don′t understand
Is this what it's like, to be a man, to be a man
I don′t understand
Won't someone hold my hand Won′t someone hold my hand
Kick a ball, drink a beer, crack a joke or two
Buy a house, wage a war, anything to prove
That you are worthy of
Unconditional love
Maybe a million dollars would make you feel enough
But even if you have it all you've got it all to lose
Is this what it's like, to be a man, to be a man
I don′t understand
Is this what it′s like, to be a man, to be a man
I don't understand
Won′t someone hold my hand
To be a man, to be a man, I don't understand
Won′t someone hold my hand
To be a man, to be a man, I don't understand
Won′t someone hold my hand
