You pay your bills
But you don't have a job
You clean up your spills
Just to do the same thing all over
You let the worlds words get to you
Instead of moving on
You brag cause you paid $200 for some shoes
But wont use that money for a good cause
You say your not self centered
But you care more about your getting hurt than your brother
You say you would give your life to be with her
Yet you fuss and call her a ***** when she gets mad
So I ask you where do you stand?
If you're your brothers keeper
His life lies in Gods as well your hand
Do you really know what a man is
Or do you think you know what a man is
Let your knowledge back your wisdom
Don't make your fist lead your way
Be respectful but firm
Be courteous but take the time to learn
Get up and at least try to get a job
Instead of making **** your life
When was the last time you help someone when they fail
When was the last time you told your brother you loved him
Just because you never cried doesn't make you a man
A man isn't a shame to cry and never questions his manhood
A man is a trend setter and not the follower
A real man is sensitive to woman and understand 1 is enough
A man loves his family and take care of his kids
Even if he doesn't have kids he is there to be a mentor to kids with no fathers and step to the plate to be a father
A man is God fearing and is a shame to show or tell it
A man is confidential and strives to be the best at what he does
Notices his mistakes fixes them and benefits from his changes
Therefore I ask you Are You A Man
