lyrics

Verse 1:

Loss after loss but I felt like you weren't there/
For me to share, my pain and emotional despair/
Perhaps I misinterpret your response to me/
Or was it your motivation to make me feel monsterly?/
But I don't hold grudges, I rather smoke these rolled dutches/
Just so I can escape the world's cold clutches/
Yeah, I found myself doing some wreckless things/
Had to rediscover the validation connections bring/
At the time I didn't know it, I became stoic/
Raised to think men have emotions but can't show it/
All in order to maintain the false facade/
Of a real man, for real I did an awesome job/
A job that required me to be unhealthy/
When I expressed my concerns only some felt me/
But Fuck it, There's no time to waste and shit/
Curb behaviors that sabotage meaningful relationships/




Verse 2:

I author rhymes that plant seeds and water minds/
You can't put a dollar sign on daddy and daughter time/
At this playplace smile on my face as my toddler climbs/
Wondering will I be treated kind by Father Time/
I hope indeed so, please let me see so/
Many years and be here for my daughter as she grows/
Instilling knowledge and wisdom until I leave yo/
I must model the best traits of machismo/
Hit the weed bro and yeah hold it in/
And then, think about all the shit we were told as men/
And sometimes these damn lessons are disguised & clandestine/
I try to keep that in mind when I find myself as a man stressin/
But I can't promise I won't be stand offish in this damn office/
Obviously I'm not perfect who said this man's flawless/
I'm only human not a mutant for your amusement/
My inner student knows it's prudent to be fluent in self improvement/
