All a Man Can Say

(Men don't talk) (And this is something that we have to look at) (They're taught to be a man) (And internalize everything) Yah yah Aye All the pain that I fell, I keep it deep inside When you ask me how I'm doing, I just say "I'm fine" Even when I'm not When I am happy I can't shut up That should tell you something about my silence If you take a closer look it's written in my eyes Men are like open books not rocket science If I go quiet Then that's a clear sign Nothing really complicated Ask me how I'm doing for the second time (Snicker) Then I hit you with a heavy sigh With tears feeling up my eyes Because the pressure has been building up I feel like I'm about to explode but instead I implode Because I don't wanna lash out I don't wanna hurt you So I calculate exactly what to say Articulate my words hoping that you can relate But honestly, that's not all that I have to say Aye (And then on top that) (Us women) (We have never learned) (We were never taught) (What it means to create that atmosphere) (And so in times and moments where) (Your man opens up themselves to you) (It's very hard for you to receive it) Aye This song is for all my brothers in the world Don't keep it inside, it would really help to talk If not to your woman, then let it be to God Lay it all to Him, he can take it The cycle of suicide, we can break it One step at a time, no need to rush it One man at a time, we can do it God is on our side, we can make it Yah
