How to Walk Like a Man ft. Martin Kierszenbaum Lyrics

How to walk like a man

Walk like a man

Walk like a man

Walk like a man

Dear son,

I wrote you this letter because this world we live in

Ain't too forgiving for truth tellers and it was written

That if you go against the grain they wanna knock you down

That's why I figured it'd be best to tell my story now

I saw my father once since I was in the second grade

Had to learn these lessons on my own I was self made

I been broken down crushed lost trying to find a way

Thought my only power's give a life or take a life away

But wherever you focus your energy flows

So you can stress over the past or get obsessed and go

I was blessed to have a mother kept me fed and clothed

Made me read a thousand books about my worth in gold

So when the block got hot and the homies got shot

And the girls started ho'ing and they running from the cops

I knew I was a prince in an enemy's land

And that's the first lesson how to walk like a man

How to walk like a man

Walk like a man

Walk like a man

Walk like a man

The only person you gotta convince is yourself

Don't try to argue with these idiots it's bad for health

And most of 'em worship money, so increase your wealth

Don't ever tell 'em all your plans learn to move in stealth

And 'Pac right they gone hate you for whatever you do

So choose to pursue what's truest to you

And you ain't never been alone

Look down at the shoulders you standing on

Go and find like minded allies that's standing strong

I ain't grow up with religion but believe in something

Your body is the greatest temple, don't die for nothing

I know five black men college educated dead

You got something in your heart to say, you better say it

'Cause time is your greatest commodity when it's lost

You can never get it back, be conscious of what it cost

Find you a woman that know about more than just dropping draws

Build you a future and find you a cause

Gotta walk like a man

How to walk like a man

Walk like a man

Walk like a man

Walk like a man

How to walk like a man

Walk like a man

Walk like a man

Walk like a man

When you alone on the battlefield

I'll be riding with you that's for real

You gotta breathe deep and think through it

Move through it get used to it

And if it's money over everything

Then you'll be selling out for anything

You see the best thing that you can be

Is yourself, that's what the world needs

Gotta walk like a man

How to walk like a man

Walk like a man

Walk like a man

Walk like a man

How to walk like a man

Walk like a man

Walk like a man

Walk like a man
