As we wake up every day, not really the same as yesterday and the days before,
As a man do we think we have everything or are we still wishing for a little bit more.
For some of us we have a family, children and grandchildren alike.
Well others are the signal ones, kissing all the girls on their cool motorbike.

But understand the fact we do cry when we're hurt.
Often we try to hide it, but Lord knows that never really worked.

Still I dream of us standing strong for those we love and protect.
We've had our many flaws, but those are just old memories we just live to forget.

So really what is it to be a real man.
Is it trying to act all cool and calm,  always having the right plan.
No,  it's just being what the Father up there made us to truly be.
To be the Father's of our house's,  the men to be the great eyes to watch and protect all the beautiful things we see.
So be as you are, the way you were surely made.
Can you not be a hero for someone else, for your soul was also saved.

Man....
