Black Poetry : Soft Flesh

Born to be a man
But that’s what you refuse to be
Afraid of growing up and taking a stand
Yet you want to consider yourself a man
Responsibility you decline to take
Decisions you refuse to make
You have no opinion, you make no choice
You do what others tell you, you have no voice.
You’re not a man, you’re a boy
Think life is a game, your own proverbial toy
You may have a mustache and beard, and muscle bound
But as a man you cannot be found
You stick out your chest, but it’s just a front to your back
Thinking you’re an authority on everything, but you don’t know jack.
You got kids, but you’re not a dad
You don’t know what it takes to make your woman happy and that my friend is sad
So let me take you to school
So you can learn the golden rule
For to be a man
Means you’ll do whatever you can
To get the job done
from the rising to the setting of the sun
No excuses for failing, realize it’s a part of life
Just take the responsibility and get the thing right
Handle your woman with care
For she is your queen beyond compare
Give her what she needs
Not just your semen seed
Be her support and be her friend
And she’ll stick with you until the bitter end
Being a man means you’ve got to work
Cares of this life you cannot continue to shirk
Don’t let your family run your life
Don’t let them decide who should be your wife
Soft flesh its time to grown up and take a stand
But most of all my brother its time to be a real man.
 
you mean...

i can't be laying around, playing video games all day
balling in the park...as my boys and me play
i can't be sagging at the club
...staying out all night
leaving my lady at home
with the kiddies
RIGHT

i can't be drinking the forties
going on crack bengies and ****
and all of my playtime
a brutha has to quit

is that whatcha saying?

o'kay...i can do that.

I HEAR YOU, B.

say the words.
