Lyrics
Mhmm oh
Mhmm
Mhmm Hmm
This is a letter to man
Do the best that you can
Don't let 'em hold you down
Don't let 'em stop all ya plans
Some days you feel defeated but just move out that jam
Yeah, get up and do it again
This is a letter to man
Do the best that you can
Everyday a sacrifice but you destined to win
They gone try to block yo shine but just go with the wind
Yeah, gotta let go of the kid
It's hard to be man in these days
Expecting to be tough, brave, never afraid
Emotionless, have no feelings yet care for yo pain
Like he ain' going through hurt but it ain' viewed as the same
To be a man we taught to go numb, feel nothing at all
My father told me boys don't cry and that embedded them laws
As a man we suppose to be strong show no weakness in flaws
Classified a fraud if you show any sympathy at all
Somehow that was set as the truth and we follow it
Most of us was raised by a woman, follow what mama set
But a woman can't show a man how to be a man
That's the truth of the fact sometimes we gotta acknowledge it
Dominance and confidence supposed to be how our conscious is
Despite how we is feeling inside, just to honor it
Astonishing all the traits they claim is a man
When half of 'em ain' even man but they swearing and promising
This is a letter to man
Do the best that you can
Don't let 'em hold you down
Don't let 'em stop all ya plans
Some days you feel defeated but just move out that jam
Yeah, get up and do it again
This is a letter to man
Do the best that you can
Everyday a sacrifice but you destined to win
They gone try to block yo shine but just go with the wind
Yeah, gotta let go of the kid
Time to grow up bro
When you become a man in this world, no more uh oh's
If you ain' give a damn bout that girl what you hit her up for?
You left that girl stranded and pregnant
This what sucks tho
That kid gone grow up playing without a father
And mama end up sleeping alone, crying with her daughter
But if she got a son then it's probably a little harder
Cuz she cannot raise a man to be a man without the father
So what you stupid nigga?
Thinking life is lucid nigga
This is not a dream, better wake up
How could you do it nigga?
Proving niggas right saying you stupid, maneuver nigga
Move the fuck around claiming you a man
You confusing niggas
A man-child in big boy shoes
When we come round you stand down
Follow big boy rules
Til you finally can understand how the big boys do
Then one day you can tell the kids coming up under you
This is a letter to man
Do the best that you can
Don't let 'em hold you down
Don't let 'em stop all ya plans
Some days you feel defeated but just move out that jam
Yeah, get up and do it again
This is a letter to man
Do the best that you can
Everyday a sacrifice but you destined to win
They gone try to block yo shine but just go with the wind
Yeah, gotta let go of the kid
Leave that kid alone
It's time to move on
You gotta be grown
Do things on yo own
You got to let go
Leave that kid alone
It's time to move on
You got to be grown
Do things on yo own
