verse 1

Hey listen....I got a gun//
but shhhhhh dont tell anyone//
I also got a sword and three knifes//
that left several young men death and some cries from lost wifes//
man fuck that! even although all of the above is true//
and that I am still affiliated with an ill crew//
is that something what a real man got to do?//
the definition of a man? I tell you what being a real man is meant to be//
it means you stick by yuor girl when she's pregnant, you see//
fucking a girl and leaving her is just one of the possibilities//
but it takes a real man to take care of his responsibilities//
I do! and even if I have drank alot of shit//
I make sure my wife will never marry an alcoholic//
I bring kingdoms, will make her life seem to be a dream//
it takes a real man to make his wife feel like a real queen//
and don't translate your dark days into violence//
just look into her eyes and make it flow in silence//
act mature, cause every action got its consequences//
cause Defense put you behind bars and leave you defenseless//
and if you got kids make them look at you as a hero and not as a zero prick//
how do you explaine to be a king in the druggame or being an alcoholic?//
its sad to see a man with kids acting like a lil kid//
life is suppose to be progressive, so take a ride with it//
this song is not meant to erase my mistakes//
I know I made them but I paved different ways//
I learned from them, I made a whole new plan//
I will make sure my future family will see me as a real man

verse 2

its easy to fuck but difficult to love//
a real man recognized that true love is an artcraft//
to create life is really easy//
but to put faith in life is hard, believe me//
but being a man and a good husband aren't a synonym//
its also about takeing care of your own shit aswell as your friends//
in my life, loyaly is what I breath//
my friends always should be able to live better than me//
a man rests when he sleeps, nothing in between//
but when I close my eyes it isn't what it seems//
I think about my next move, about my next verse//
I live my life, but make sure the future is worth for the better and not for the worse//
cause a real man got a vision with an ugly precision//
like a sniper, every man got a God given mission//
but nowadays I see just a few men and alot of boys//
who are thinking of life just as one of their toys//
they play with it, fuck it up and move on//
but when you throw life away it will prove you wrong//
they spend more on things with a price tage, its sad//
instead of the ones you shared your bed//
rich enough to buy Armani, D&G or cd's//
but too broke to provide for their own seeds//
thats not what a real man does//
a real man handle's his business thats led from a reasonable cause//

Verse 3

But what if reputation is everything?//
Will I ever be man enough for that merry marry thing?//
will my mistakes in my ealy days prevend me from being a man?//
I don't think it will, everyone deserves a new chance in God's plan//
I think I am the living proof that a human being can change//
I went from a boy with a limited range//
cause I thought I lost it all when I lost my mother//
just wanted to make money and death was just another thing Life had to offer//
now I work hard and get tired in the late evening//
but the taste of some legal bucks is very pleasing//
I was considered dangerous cause I was a criminal with a good set of brains//
now i use that last talent to really make moves in this game//
I work at an office and after that I deliver my promise//
to my man AK that I will bring him to that top spot//
some time soon you will see him on a poster as a rap God//
but I know life can't always be a dream, at times its a nightmare//
thats why I always show love to my friends and let them know I always will be there//
I support my friends and their families//
they smoke their trees, I drink my drink, we got the same enemies//
although I live well, I still live Caesars words and respect that//
"I love the name of honor more, than I fear death"//
all I ask is for you to respect me as a real man.
