Trying to Be a Man

Salam Alaykum, here's another rap that I've written. This one is slighlty different. It's about, say when you've had a fight with someone and there is a bit of animosity and each expects the other to make amends first. Well, that's what I'm dealing with today!

Let's just stop! It's not Doomsday

Not interested in making you pay

This is a battle that can't be won

It's gonna drag on for the the rest of eternity

But a breather is what can save my sanity

Rivalry's winning, ripping just like a hawk

Why don't we be strong and just learn to talk

You might look and think: "What's his game?"

I'll be honest and say this war is lame

So let's not go deeper and talk this over

I'm going to be a man

I'm sorry if I hurt you by what I might have done or what I might have said

If to me it jus seemed fun

But it made you feel so red

Let's not get caught up in this web of hate

I'm just hoping

If I've done something wrong, can we be open

I want to stop all this fuss

Move on and put this behind us

This is me just trying to be a man

Out of all my conflicts I've had worse

All this and you are worth my while

So I'm not going to sit there and have a curse

Why don;t we stop and liberate that smile

Warmth and compassion ain't some defect

In this day and age we need mutual respect

I'm not going to write you off and leave

Because moving forwards brings true relief

I'm going to be a man

I'm sorry if I hurt you by what I might have done or what I might have said

If to me it jus seemed fun

But it made you feel so red

Let's not get caught up in this web of hate

I'm just hoping

If I've done something wrong, can we be open

I want to stop all this fuss

Move on and put this behind us

This is me just trying to be a man

I'm sorry if I've hurt you by what I might have done

or what I might have said

Warmth and compassion bring mutual respect

I'm not going to write you off and leave

Because moving forwards brings true relief

This is me just trying to be a man
