When I was smaller wishing |
|
I was taller |
|
I woke up one morning and my mama was gone |
|
I tried to talk to my father he told me not to bother him he said boy being a man means being strong |
|
Now leave me alone |
|
So you say you wanna see behind the curtain you wanna know why |
|
I don't show it when |
|
I'm hurting |
|
It never did me any good before so long ago |
|
I locked that door |
|
But please don't think |
|
I'm pushing you away |
|
It's just the man |
|
I am today |
|
Before I was loved by you |
|
I didn't know how to |
|
Love was nothing to me but a four letter word |
|
But I'm learning being strong don't mean being alone |
|
So just hold on girl and soon you're gonna know |
|
The man I'll be tomorrow |
|
So you say you wanna see behind the curtain you wanna know why |
|
I don't show it when |
|
I'm hurting |
|
It never did me any good before so long ago |
|
I locked that door |
|
But please don't think |
|
I'm pushing you away |
|
It's just the man |

|
It's just the man |
|
I am today |
|
The man I am today |
