John Strepek - A Man Lyrics

I always wanted to be more than just a man
I always wanted to be more than just a man
I always wanted to be more than just a man
I always wanted to be more than just a man

Guy, I wanted to be more than just your average fiend
I'm trying to grow and be a better version of me
I'm trying to see. I'm trying to breathe. I'm trying to grieve
I'm trying to leave. I'm trying to grow. I'm trying to go

I'm trying to be more than just another soul
Oh, oh, oh
I wanted to be a man. I wanted to be here
I wanted to be a man. I was scared of my fears

I wanted to be a man. Let me just be
I'm trying to be me
But everyone else is just laughing. I want to be me
But everyone is laughing. I wanted to be me

But everybody is laughing. I wanted to be me
But everyone is laughing. Everybody sees me
And they are laughing. Everybody wants to joke
But they don't know how hard I had to work to get here

That's fine. Cause I understand my time
I'll get there in the long time. The long run. The time's done
I'm going home. I don't know where I'm gonna go
So I'll stay here on this microphone. Till I get back home and out the cold

I'm freezing cold. I'm trying to get rest my weary soul
No one lets me home. No one opens the door
So I'll keep wandering until I find a hearth that's warm and healthy
Let me go back to the place where I was when I wasn't so cold

Now I'm dead and frozen in my own zone in my brain
I'm trying to be more than just a guy who's focused on the game
But instead of trying to run the game, I'm trying to focus on my brain
And improving all these little things that these children see

I'm trying to be more than just me
And maybe, if I succeed, then I'll satisfy all y'all too, eventually
