That’s What Men Do Lyrics by ​stic.man

Manhood

2007

"The secret to success is to have no fear"
That's What Men Do (x3)
[Verse 1]
I ain't no pimp, I ain’t no player. I'm just true to myself
Why would I take from a woman what I could do for myself?
I see the young homies tryna be grown, spittin’ they little game
Thinkin’ their life is ‘bout some weed and a little change
But fast forward 5 to 10 years and then it clicks
I've been hanging out, wasting my time chasing these chicks
Now these chicks got apartments and jobs, pushin’ new cars
And we still borrowin’ change for cigars
Can I holler at my dogs? It ain’t no time left to have these low standards
It's only right—we got to go from boyhood to manhood
Our ancestors left a legacy of excellence
We come from great warriors, riders, that rode for the realist shit
Am I wrong for telling it like it is, beloved?
I know the system stay on our backs and got us thuggin’
But ‘long as we’re 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 fucking around and be a man (4x)
[Verse 2]
I got homies going to court for child support
But they never dressed in nothing less then polo sport
I know smart, capable, talented grown men that's drunks
Niggas that can run they own company sittin’ on they butts
Not for nothing. I ain't shittin’ on my own—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 ain’t no quitters—all we got is us, my niggas
We was kings before we fell into this modern-day hell
Doin’ chattel 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 grown man, give it his all, reaching them goals
It's that brotherly 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 fucking around and be a man (4x)
“Kwame Nkrumah 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 act truthfully. When everybody around him is wrong, a man can stand alone."
[Verse 3]
(That's what men do)
We take care of home
We take care of our own
Discipline our daughters and sons up strong
(That's what men do)
He’s family-first, puttin’ in work. A grown man gon’ handle that business. Can I get a witness?
(That's what men do)
I am what I am, accept it 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 goin’
(That’s what men do)
"If you are not a man, then you can wash whatever way the tide sweeps, walking around with a false sense of manhood."
