7 Seconds - Man Enough To Care Lyrics

Daddy always told you, do it like a man, never get too friendly,
ome won't understand, friends have got you in on all those "hard" things that they've planned,
All your life they told you, never shed a tear, cuz boys don't crave affection,
Boys ain't got no fear,
But did they ever show you how to shut those feelings on then off again

[Chorus]
And now you gotta hide yourself, hide yourself away,
Show you care and you might show the world that you're only gay,
Crying is for babies, for boys is it a sin,
To be a caring, sharing, loving, human one

Handshake show you're friendly, but don't get caught,
You gotta fight to prove you're not afraid, f*ck just to prove you're not,
And all your life you play this game and it goes on and on and on and on,
Now you've grown into a man, proud as hell to be,
It's now your turn to raise a son, don't let him be one,
And you can teach him all the things you were taught yourself
