Man (Just Do It)A Poem by ghaw2007Man (Just Do It) Verse 1 You're taller, you're stronger, you're faster It's incumbent on you to be wiser The ways of the world rest on your shoulders However heavy it may seem at times Responsibility is expected of you It's always in your face You can't ignore it Like a stampede of elephants in the center of town Verse 2 You're always surrounded by supporters and villains You'll be congratulated while others will throw shade The power you generate and the power you exert Will guarantee respect and the bending to your will You can't be reckless in your position If that occurs, your weaknesses will be exploited Your odyssey will be in jeopardy Verse 3 You're led to believe that boys don't cry And when you come of age You realize that fairy tales are glorified lies Suppressing what you experience is not conducive To a healthy state of mind If balance is to be achieved Senses must function properly You don't have the luxury of dreaming To being a robot Everything will come down to the wire And you'll be one decision away from demise Bridge There's no such thing as luck What you get is what you receive Be the author of a narrative To which you subscribe to When you're in control, you're always in demand Chorus You're a man, just do it Don't waste your time with gossip or flakes Walk like you've got a big d-ick Look to the sky and reach for it Be prepared to fight To protect what you create, what you own All eyes are on you And every moment is yours to lose Written by B.
