Man up
This song is what its like for men in todays society, stuggling to live up to the expectations of "being a man" and "manning up"

Life wasn't made for sane people
There's no way
I’m sorry girl but you and I will never be equal
I was told by my father that was right to say
You're beautiful in the fullest sense of the word
Two halves in sync to make a whole
Me i'm a hole
Pitch black and cold
A fucking vortex
Meant to eat you up and spit you out
Tell you that I love you then put you in a choke hold while I curse at you, i'm foaming from the mouth
Drowning from my saliva, am I alive or
Hey, I know this place
Corpses by the dozens, there goes my mothers and my cousin and my other cousin and my grandmuffin
But what's that feeding on them
"Hey stop that! Sto-" [cuts saying "stop" short]
I felt a hand on my shoulder
Turned around and it was me holding you closer
Teeth getting nearer and nearer
I opend my mouth to scream don't kill her
I woke up in our bed wondering which version of me was realer
So many demons inside of me I can't figure it out
For years i've been trying
For years i've been sick and tired
I'm sick and tired of dying
Day after day, live die repeat
I wish it was safe to be me
But i'm not sure who I really am
You see what i'm saying
I want the world in my palm
I want earthquakes to level cities
I want us to all get along
I want to live in unity
I want the demons to run the streets in broad daylight
I want something divine to keep us all safe at night
ALRIGHT!
I admit it
I have a yin and yang and they don’t always want the same thing
So they go into battle
Then i'm torn apart in a meaningless struggle to grapple
I'm afraid that one day you'd get caught in crossfire and left in the gravel
And I’d feel no XXXXXXX XXXXXXX XX XXXXX XXX XXXXX XXXXXX
