[Intro — dark choir + heavy 808s]
Yeah…
Woo!
Uh!
Turn me up!
This for the ones still standing through pressure!
Crowd:
BE A MAN!
BE A MAN!
BE A MAN!
[Verse 1]
I came from the bottom where nobody cared
Cold nights, hard life, pain everywhere
Had dreams in my head but the road wasn’t fair
Still I stood tall like a king in the air
A man ain’t somebody flexing online
A man got control of his soul and his mind
You fall seven times, stand up number nine
Stay on your grind and respect comes with time
(Ad-libs)
Facts!
Stand up!
Never fold!
Let’s go!
I seen fake friends disappear in the smoke
Seen strong men break and collapse from the load
But pressure make diamonds, remember the code
You either grow stronger or drown in the flow
(Crowd Chant)
BE A MAN!
BE A MAN!
BE A MAN!
HEY!
[Chorus]
Be a man when the world go dark
Keep your faith when they tear you apart
Ten toes down, stand strong through the rain
Real warriors move through pain
Be a man, don’t run from the fight
Keep your head up high through the night
Strong heart, strong soul, that’s the plan
Rise up — BE A MAN!
(Ad-libs)
Rise up!
Stand tall!
No fear!
Let’s ride!
[Verse 2]
They told me “slow down,” I was chasing my goals
Now the fire inside me too strong to control
Every scar, every cut, every bruise on my soul
Turned a young boy into something more bold
No silver spoon, had to build what I own
No easy path, had to walk it alone
When the pressure got heavy, I carried the stone
Now I move like a king sitting high on the throne
(Ad-libs)
Woo!
Built different!
That’s right!
Pressure!
A man protects, a man provides
Even when storms hit hard outside
Never let fear take over your mind
Discipline first and the rest gonna shine
(Crowd)
BE A MAN!
BE A MAN!
BE A MAN!
[Bridge — slower, emotional]
Look…
Real strength ain’t screaming loud
Sometimes strength means standing proud
Even when nobody else around
You keep fighting round by round
(Choir + crowd)
BE A MAN!
BE A MAN!
[Final Verse — hardest part]
I got war in my chest but I still move calm
Got pain in my soul but I still stay strong
Every loss turned lessons into battle songs
Now the weak mindset gone, I evolved too long
No excuses, I’m breaking the cage
Built my mind with the fire and rage
Young king now stepping on stage
Writing my story page by page
(Ad-libs)
King!
Let’s go!
Stand up!
Never quit!
I won’t bend, I won’t break, I won’t run
Fight till the mission completely done
Heart of a lion under the sun
When they scream my name, let the anthem come!
(Massive Final Chorus — crowd screaming)
BE A MAN!
BE A MAN!
BE A MAN!
HEY!
Stand tall through the fire and flames
Stay solid, never change
Strong heart, strong soul, strong hands
That’s forever how we stand!
BE A MAN!
BE A MAN!
BE A MAN! 🔥
