Sometimes I forget I’m a Man



made to lead 

wanna breed 

do what I do 

don’t wanna think  


things get complicated 

you get frustrated 

calm you down 

with what I’m making 


a man 

help me understand 

was I built for 

more than slaving and war  


man 

without a plan 

is worth less 

than food digested


visions and fears 

advertise nightly 

sacrificing

to buy them outright


no guarantees 

many will leave 

made to build 

it’s about the timing  


a man 

I forget what I am 

weighed down by 

convention and skin  


man

nothing else  

when this spirit 

leaves where it’s been
