Look at you.
You think you're a man.
You think you've got the world in the palm of your hand.
You're just a boy.
You're not a man.
A man would take care of his kids the best as he can.
Living life like it's a frigging game.
You got two kids and can't remember their name.
Birthdays come once a year.
The kids are by the phone.
Mom wipes away their tears.
Three more kids on the horizon.
From three different women in a world trying to survive in.
You think you're a man?
You're not even close.
You're not a man.
You're not even like most.
The majority of men take care of their own.
They would never walk out and leave em alone.
Oh yea, I forgot.
You think you're cool and you think you're hot.
What was I thinking to try to tell you how to live?
You're happy with yourself.
You already gave all you had to give.
