116 Clique - Man Up Anthem lyrics

MAN UP! [Verse 1 – Lecrae:] Momma want some Obama in me The hood want 'Pac hip-hop wanna see the Common in me And since it's a senseless contradiction I end up a misfit tryna fit in This ends when I stand up And see the hands that are standard, holy is the Lamb huh Now we holding you to man up 'Cause we were made in His image start looking at what you came from [Verse 2 – KB:] Right after Adam every atom in our anatomy's Had to make adamant after what Adonai is against Let me take you back to the tree in Eden Never eat it, you'll see that Eve was deceived But Adam is the one who let her eat it Instead of leading, no we ain't leading we bump that Basically little boys with muscles and a mustache The femininity, we need a remedy The God-Man a hundred percent masculinity [Verse 3 – Trip Lee:] Where the men at? Seems like they all lost None of them are on the scene, seems like they died off They extinct but my dream is to rise up We chasin' the prize of the King the divine boss But we fell away, now we ungodly We lose then we really got the blues like Navi I want to celebrate the dudes that's beside me Fellas let's elevate, we through with the lobby [Verse 4 – Tedashii:] They lied, go ahead say boy get your shine on And if a s**er try to block you get your nine homes That's what I heard you gotta do to be a man now Stand up for yourself so I took it in my hands now And that's the problem man we busy trying to solve it All the while we walking dead, man somebody bring the coffin Voice drop, peach fuzz, now you think that you a man 'cause you feelin' yourself? You need to man up [Verse 5 – Sho Baraka:] Yeah, there's many things men is chasin' after They got some questions? We got some answers Sex and models and tippin' bottles Pack a pile of excuses right next to your bottle caps A Rolodex filled with names that you aim to please Next to the stack of money buildin' up a heart of greed Ice on his neck, givin' jokers the cold shoulder You drunk off pride plus you loving the hangover You gotta whole lotta stuff that won't amount to gain Life will never make sense because you never made change [Verse 6 – PRo:] We got it twisted, sick like a fever Lil' man live to stack dough, Keebler Man up! Get up out of that treehouse Leave them cookies alone, it's time to eat meat now Tryna show you a new way to live now No charge, you can call it a freestyle Without Christ you won't know what a man is You a boy in a man's body like Tom Hanks in Big [Verse 7 – Andy Mineo:] Being a man got nothin' to do with age You can be a boy till the day you lay in your grave None of us behave like the image of who we're made 'Cause we fallen the ways it's better known as depraved Running from responsibility really we crave The easy way out of places that call us to pull our weight Man they blowing through every day decisions are made Responding to the call God's giving 'em from the gate Man Up! Let the process begin, separate the boys from the men Man Up! It don't matter how you started, partner, it's about how you end Man Up! Jesus is the model, follow us we gon' follow him Man Up! We the last of a dying breed, it's time that we... MAN UP!
