Real Man Lyrics

When I was a child I thought as a child I spoke as a child I didn't know better, better
But now I'm a man I look like a man Old as a man And I should know better, better
Got my head in the sky And my mind knows what it wants But my body just drags me down
And my world's something you can't see But it's still very real to me You can find it in the hole where I keep my soul
There it is, way down inside me There's a real man, a real man Forget about my body and be a real man
I see with my heart Hear with my heart I feel with my heart Sometimes it works better, better
And some so called friends put me down And they pity me for trying Bad emotions push me around
But the vision shines on and on It will shine when we all are gone And I'd like to add a little sparkle while I'm here
Light it up, way down inside me There's a real man, a real man Forget about bad feelings and be a real man
Some men's world is only hate and money 'Fraid of everything and they laugh at nothing And they all believe to criticize
You can laugh at me now But the time comes to everybody Then you must decide
When that day finally comes along You might wish you'd been a little more strong Then you'll wake up in the morning Cryin', "Oh my God"
There it is, way down inside me It's a real man, a real man Got to grow up sometime Be a real man, real man Suffer them slings and arrows
Be a real man, now be a real man Don't sell yourself for nothing Be a real man, be a real man
Don't take no crap from no one Be a real man, be a real man Get your trip together Be a real man, be a real man
