Force-fed all the lies cut up like lines
Swallowed it live, it kept me blind from my inside
But narrow binds exploded wide so I could find my mind
Who's to decide, now why should I just choose a side?
That's why you tell me
Be a man
If you can
Be a man
Now I know the ways of this game
When I don't play, that's when you say I cannot stay
But I can play in my own way, no need to be ashamed
You're not to blame, you know your brain has been so trained
That's why I tell you
Be a man
If you can
Be a man
Don't try to put me in a box
You don't know where I belong
And if you put me in a box
You can think that I will get along
But you are so wrong
But you are so wrong
So now I'm here, I'm on my own
I'm in this place that I call home
There's no more need for a disguise
For now I know all of your lies
That's why I tell you
Be a man
If you can
Be a man
