Davon Lovett - boys don't cry. Lyrics

Why is it always try to keep your head high?
And try your best to best strong
But never it's okay to cry when situations go wrong
Why is it always here you go?
You like to play as the victim
But never I would love to know and understand how you feeling
Keeping mental health trending but never offer no healing
Y'all like to laugh at niggas that's why niggas keep from revealing
Biggest lie that I've been told is you can talk if you want
Acting like they really care though I can see they don't
I learned a long time ago nobody coming to help
So I guess that I got no choice I gotta fiend for myself
It's two options that you got
You either do or you die
I rather die instead that's why I contemplate suicide
'Cause all these years I've been holding back these tears
Frown on my face to cover that I'm in fear
Of feelings being shown
In front of all of my peers
Twenty-two years old but still I feel like a kid
Shit, I am a kid
Truth is, I've never healed from the day I scraped my knee
Scarred from the fall and the words spoken to me
D, hop on your feet you gotta prevail
Never show emotion that shit is only for females
Never throw the towel in, never throw your hands up
Take the punches on the chin you just gotta man up
Never let 'em see you smile they gon' think that you a clown
If they think you a clown best believe they gon' make it worth ya while
Been lying to myself I'm sick of keeping this frown on
Pain that's been growing inside hiding for so long
Sick of being strong my nigga
My f*cking mind's gone
Boys don't cry but I need a shoulder to whine on
Been lying to myself I'm sick of keeping this frown on
Pain that's been growing inside hiding for so long
Sick of being strong my nigga
My f*cking mind's gone
Boys don't cry but I need a shoulder to whine on
Why is it always fix your face?
You always acting this way
But never tell me 'bout the things that got you into this space
My anger is nothing more than shit I've never resolved
'Cause niggas tried to make me trip then blamed me for the fall
Then say the way I should react is not reacting at all
Niggas spit right in my face
Called me out my name
Then wanna act like they confused when I swing at they jaw
Always apologizing first 'cause it's never they fault
How come your people always find a way to paint you as the villain?
Everytime you pose a thought to give 'em yo opinion
Niggas like to hear but niggas never love to listen
So don't ask me why I'm mad I got valid reasons I'm tripping
I hate that I ain't talked to my dad but he's still living
I hate the only way to see Unc is a jail visit
I hate my sister died 'cause her spirit is still needed
I hate a piece of shit is the way that I feel treated
Wishing for a thousand hugs for when I'm not feeling loved
Wishing for some confidence when I feel I'm not enough
Wishing for a space I can express without me being judged
Wishing for the day when my niggas kill all the acting tough
They told me boys don't cry
Could give a f*ck what they said
Tired of holding back my tears imma drop 'em instead
They told me boys don't cry
Could give a f*ck what they said
Tired of holding back my tears imma drop 'em instead
Been lying to myself I'm sick of keeping this frown on
Pain that's been growing inside hiding for so long
Sick of being strong my nigga
My f*cking mind's gone
Boys don't cry but I need a shoulder to whine on
Been lying to myself I'm sick of keeping this frown on
Pain that's been growing inside hiding for so long
Sick of being strong my nigga
My f*cking mind's gone
Boys don't cry but I need a shoulder to whine on
