Making Of A Man

Man doesn't want to beg or rob To support himself he needs and wants a job And when he does, he'll do the best that he can And truly what he does, makes himself a man, He doesn't want to rely by the support of others Whether they be friends or strangers, or sisters or brothers He wants to build and support with his own two hands As that is truly, what makes himself a man, He wants to be proud of how he lives his life As he would rather give than take, from the needy in life The calluses on his hands shows where he has been As being a lazy man, he will never be accused of that sin, Everything he owns he has paid for and bought From the work he has done, the possessions he sought And the pride started when he could either begged or steal But then he knows that life is either a sweet or sour pill, He lives by his pride and his honor is his work Supporting himself and his family is his greatest perk He will continue this tradition until he cannot anymore When his body is tired, and his muscles are sore, Then the day will come when he is old and gray And out in the pasture they will put him to graze He will remember how he worked and proudly he did stand And how he sweated and worked; as he became a man.
