lyrics

Can it be that there’s more to it than we can see?
It seems to me that our problems have a common theme.
You see this culture that we’ve built it tells us who we ought to be
So how we act and look and feel’s clouded by masculinity
Do not let your given label define your identity
As for me…

I don’t wanna be no macho man, had enough of this pride
There aint gunna be no winner; no one’s giving out no prize
Don’t be a macho man feeding toxicity
Instead let’s focus on the love and breeding positivity

A man is walking down the street, Oh no!
He has a mean look upon his face and he knows..
That he’s perpetuating fear although,
It’s only to compensate for the neglect that he can’t tolerate
Fear and hate mixing with some insecurity
So he forms ruse to hide behind so many cannot see
The pain he buries deep inside, it’s real subconsciously
Even he…

Don’t wanna be no macho man, had enough of this pride
There aint gunna be no winner,no ones giving out no prize
Don’t be a macho man feeding toxicity
Instead let’s focus on the love and breeding positivity
