always running ‘round here saying
“I’m da man
I’m da man”
Well, if yo’ tired *** stopped trying so hard to be
“da man”
maybe you could become “a man”
one who could support yo’ kids
and respect your lady
one who knows what “I love you” means
and would be there for his baby
one who could give up ten women
for the love of one
who would kiss and caress her
when the lovemaking was done
I’m not saying you can’t be down
…to stop being you
but do your boys,
the next skirt
or sex
define you
are you “da man”
because you got yours
or
because you’re “a man”
think about it.
