I can't hide myself I don't expect you to understand I just hope I can explain What it's like to be a man It's a lonely road And they don't care 'bout what you know It's not 'bout how you feel But what you provide inside that home Bein' a man is what you make it You can't always live up to expectations You try to please everybody while you struggle, so you fake it And end up out of balance, compromisin' situations As a good man, a do what he should man A give everything he has and do everything he could man You might find yourself feelin' all alone Inside a house you built that you don't recognize as home And that's what my daddy told me and I'll tell my son the same Now that I'm older, I relate and I actually feel his pain He never cried, he mighta lied, but he did not complain And he said, "Son, one day, you'll have to do the same I get emotional when I stop and think and I look around Beyond the county lines of my small town I think about all the men out there who feel like I do now Who are screamin' on the inside, but won't ever make a sound I can't hide myself I don't expect you to understand I just hope I can explain What it's like to be a man (what it's like to be a man) It's a lonely road (it's a lonely road) And they don't care 'bout what you know (care 'bout what you know) It's not 'bout how you feel But what you provide inside that home Don't give up, keep fightin' As a man, our son is our horizon And our fathers' actions play a role and we end up like him So they can't let us see them hurt 'Cause we'll embody what they do and start a generational curse No wonder most men are so depressed All the things that they can't express They go to war, get thrown on the shelf Then go back to war with they mental health Then grab that bottle and ask for help Try to pull themselves out of hell Then fall back down and then realize That they gon' have to do it themselves It's the circle of life, as a man, you provide They don't know what you're worth 'til the day that you die And that's when they start cryin' (oh) Then move on to a man to confide in That's why we feel we can't hide ourselves (we can't hide ourselves) We don't expect you to understand (oh, understand) We just hope we can explain (we can explain) What it's like to be a man (what it's like to be a man) It's a lonely road (it's a lonely road) And you don't care 'bout what we know (care 'bout what we know) It's not 'bout how we feel (how we feel, how we feel) But what we provide inside that home (inside that home) That home (that home) It's not 'bout how we feel (not about how we feel) But what we provide inside that home (inside that home)
