Get up boy
Stop acting like a girl
Ew don't wear pink
Dress like a manThese words were supposed to make him strong
Stop him from being weak
Be a protected
Grow up to be a fighterBut they tore his heart
Made cover up his tears
But sometimes protectors needs protection
And fighters need to be fought forLet a man be a man
But the way he wants to be
To love who wishes
To cry and seek comfortLet a man be a man on his terms and policies
Have the right to open doors or not
To be
