Just because I’m a man,
I need not to say I can’t even if the odds are not on my side, you see, I’m made to be phenomenal in everything I touch and do. Prosper, conquer and be the talk of the day.
Just because I’m a man,
I’m supposed not to give up. I have already given up on giving up. I’m required to give my best shot at all.
I’ll be called a coward if I quit. But do they ever have in mind what matters is how long it will take me to bounce back.
Just because I’m a man,
I’m not writing to ask for sympathy. Like a soldier, it is always a long road back home. I’m in a battlefield and I won’t surrender until I cast my first blow. My enemies are my best friend.
Just because I’m a man,
I’m supposed not to cry. What if I do my crying in the rain? Will you still condemn me? Tears never drown anyone. I’ll grind my teeth and smile for that’s what society dictates to me.
Just because I’m a man,
it is perceived loyalty ain’t in our DNA. I’m made of perfections and imperfections. Slightly vulnerable to the girl child. Only then do I ever make wishes out of aeroplanes to wake up with amnesia and forget the little things that do not matter.
Just because I’m a man,
I’m supposed to work seven days a week and pay all the bills. I’ll be called irresponsible when the hustle fucks up only for them to forget I fed them yesterday. I ain’t asking for leverage. I’m an iron man, so I’ll keep it real and when enough is enough, my absence will be felt and they’ll take off my coat when I arrive at home for I’m the guy and be given a glass of water to quench my thirst.
Just because I’m a man,
I’m expected to treat her better than my ex. Dear x, this is y, we were never on the same axis. You see, every finish line is the beginning of a new race. Relationships start with chemistry and end with accounting, let our memories be part of our history. And when the evaluation shall be done, be the first to point a finger at me for I’m just a mere boy trying to man up.
Just because I’m a man,
The boy child species is getting extinct at the empowerment of the girl child. See, I’m not trying to say we are discriminated. “Kaa ngumu” I’m forced to drink my pain away with hard substance for nobody knows what makes me who I am today.
Just because I’m a man,
I have to work in silence and when success comes on my door. “Mtoto wetu” made us proud. You see, I’m working my ass alone, sleeping in the cold amidst other complication. Now they only call to say congratulations.
Just because I’m a man,
I’ll keep walking the talk and keep my head high. I’m in dire need to make million dollar cribs and plot million dollar dreams. And the only way to do that is sum this up and get the fucking shit done. I don’t chase dreams, I design them.
Just because I’m a man,
The will to conquer is the first condition to victory.
