Real Man Lyrics
Chorus:
If I was just
Half the man that you are
If I could be just
Half the man that you are
And if I was just
Half the man that you are
A real man I would be
If I was just
Half the man that you are
If I could be just
Half the man that you are
And if I was just
Half the man that you are
A real man I would be
V1:
My heart is a canvas for the world to see
Yea
And this picture I'm painting Daddy, is you there holding me
Just to think of your love, I'm overwhelmed with tears
Yea
And I'm realizing bout, the kind of man I want to be
Chorus:
If I was just
Half the man that you are
If I could be just
Half the man that you are
And if I was just
Half the man that you are
A real man I would be
If I was just
Half the man that you are
If I could be just
Half the man that you are
And if I was just
Half the man that you are
A real man I would be
V2:
Even now you always save the day
Yea
And when I'm faced with fear, I just remembered all you'd say
Your words they always bring strength
To pull through my darkest times, like when the dawn turns into day
Chorus:
If I was just
Half the man that you are
If I could be just
Half the man that you are
And if I was just
Half the man that you are
A real man I would be
If I was just
Half the man that you are
If I could be just
Half the man that you are
And if I was just
Half the man that you are
A real man I would be
Bridge: (Rap)
Everyday the new battle, Everyday the new climb
The hill that just gets steeper, a marathon of the mind
A crosswords of my future, a tango of past
A reverence for the presence, the champion has come at last
But you know this already, talking about me and you
Been down this road before, in fact a time or two
Things to reciprocate, ode to the change in sands
You told I could fly, you caught me right by the hand
Chorus:
If I was just
Half the man that you are
If I could be just
Half the man that you are
And if I was just
Half the man that you are
A real man I would be
If I was just
Half the man that you are
If I could be just
Half the man that you are
And if I was just
Half the man that you are
A real man I would be
