They say men ain’t supposed to cry

I say being a man ain’t the reason

why.

I get you got your story but I

don’t know my father either

I had a step pop who

used to laugh at my mom and

beat her

What was I supposed to do

at such a young age

I just hid away and

harbored all this Rage

Protected my mother

any way I could except

from the man who should.
