Be A Man - Scott Sellers

All these years we've held back our tears
Because crying is not the way to be a man
We show our anger clenching our teeth
But hide the quivering that's in our chins
Lets never give a compliment because that makes you a creep
And showing your emotion is for the weak
When'd it become so hard to be a man?
We're doing the best that we can
And it's said that we just wanna fuck
But we want love
Years of hiding to tend to my wounds
Made me realize just who I am
Weak and fragile...Say what you will
But I've never been more certain of myself
So I'll say the things I'm thinking
There are no apologies
Cause' I refuse to say the words that i don't mean
When'd it become so hard to be a man?
We're doing the best that we can
These expectations for us to carry on...
That's us pretending that we are so strong
We've grown tired, but we push through the rough
Cause we want love
And yes! There are a bad few
But we've got heart
Just like you
And most are trying their best
For another inch through the mud
When did it become so hard to be a man?
We're doing the best that we can
When every muscle was dragging me along
I found you...You carried me home
For these black hearts there's never enough
We just want love

Wow Scott, you really hit the nail on the head with this one! To all those who grew up listening to Rufio, I hope you're doing good... I know you're doing good.

The new album is great, good mix of fast gems like Beneath the Surface and Late Night Show and midtempo classics like Be a Man or Hello World.

[@hariss.6610]

Everyone go on Bandcamp now and buy “Beneath the Surface”. This song is on it and it is top to bottom great. I’ve listened to it at least twice a day since I bought it.

[@adamrees400]
