Stic.Man of Dead Prez - " What Men Do” lyrics

"The secret to success is to have no fear" That's What Men Do (x3) I ain't no pimp. I ate no player. Man I'm just true to myself/ Why would I take from a woman when I could do for myself/ I see the young Homie's trying to be grown spittin they little game/ Thinkin that life is about some weed and a little change/ But fast forward 5 to 10 years and then it clicks/ I've been hanging out wasted my time chasing these chicks/ Now these chicks got apartments and jobs push a new cars/ And we still borrow and change for cigars/ Can I holler at my dogs? It a no time left to have these low standards/ It's only right we have to go from boyhood to manhood/ Our ancestors left a legacy of excellence/ We come from great warriors, riders, that road for the realist sh**/ Am I wrong for telling it like it is beloved? I know the system stays on our backs and got us thuggin/ But long as were alive we got a purpose/ No man is perfect/ Every day you wake up you just got to take your plan and work it/ G's do what we want, busters do what they can. Stop f**ing around and be a man. (4x) I got homey's going to court for child support/ But they never dressed and nothing less then polo sport/ I know smart and capable talents and mentality grown man that's drunks/ n***as that can run there own company, Sittin on they bu*ts/ Not for nothing. I ain't sh**in not even I'm saying we miss out on so much in the lives we leading/ Yeah the system is against us yeah the game is out to get us/ But we men we ate no quitters/ All we got is us my n***a's We were kings before we fell into this modern day hell/ During chattle slavery time only the strongest rebel/ What is a G, if it's just a cool letter to say?/ To me a G is responsible, he do what he say/ G is for a grown man giving his all, reaching them goals/ It's that brother the strength each one of us holds/ Deep in our souls/ In business moves he's a competent planner/ So he can move in a smooth confident manner/ That's what men do G's do what we want, busters do what they can. Stop f**ing around and be a man. (4x) ....said the secret to success is to have no fear and to me that is the core. But in order for you to have no fear, you have to have a foundation; a base upon which you can stand. No matter what be a man still stand up for what is right, still at truthfully when everybody around him is wrong, a man stands alone" (That's what men do) We take care of our own/ Discipline her daughters and sons up strong/ (That's what men do) His family first putin in work a grown man going to handle the business can I get a witness? (That's what men do) I am what I am excepted or not If he raise you don't front, show respect for your pops (That's what men do) Protect you from harm; My word is my bond We're making sure the little homies get where they're going "If you're not a man then you can wash whichever way the tide sweeps, walking around with the false sense of manhood."
