​​​to be a man Lyrics by Martin Luke Brown

​​​man oh man !

2025

[Verse]
I walk around looking down with my head down low
Something rests on my chest, so uncomfortable
I don't know what this is
I didn't ask for this
Call my mom, call my dad, call a therapist
I walk around looking down
With my head down low
[Verse]
I had a friend, now I don't
He was Twenty Nine
Didn't know how to be
How to live his life
Yeah, we've all read the stats
Yeah, we can do the math
It's not like he died in a crash or had a heart attack
I had a friend, now I don't
He was Twenty Nine
[Chorus]
Is this what it's like?
I don't understand
Is this what it's like? (To be a man, to be a man)
I don't understand
Won't someone hold my hand?
Won't someone hold my hand?
[Bridge]
Kick a ball, drink a beer, crack a joke or two
Buy a house, wagе a war, anything to prove
That you are worthy of
Unconditional love
Maybе a million dollars will make you feel enough
But even if you have it all, you have it all to lose
[Chorus]
Is this what it's like? (To be a man, to be a man)
I don't understand
Is this what it's like? (To be a man, to be a man)
I don't understand
Won't someone hold my hand? (To be a man, to be a man)
I don't understand
Won't someone hold my hand? (To be a man, to be a man)
I don't understand
Won't someone hold my hand?
