FKA Twigs - Measure of a Man lyrics

[Verse 1: FKA Twigs] Nobody Feels the pain behind the love you show Nobody Feels the burden that is yours alone [Pre-Chorus: FKA Twigs] If when the morning comes, you're not with me (Destiny) I know that you'll return with destiny [Chorus: FKA Twigs] Only you can truly understand The measure of a hero is the measure of a man (I wanna kiss it better, the measure of a man) The measure of a man (I wanna kiss it better, the measure of a man) [Verse 2: FKA Twigs] Your body Bears the scars of every man I know So softly I wanna kiss it better, the scarlet letter To me, it don't belong [Pre-Chorus: FKA Twigs] If when the morning comes, you're not with me (Destiny) I know that you'll return with destiny [Chorus: FKA Twigs] Only you can truly understand The measure of a hero is the measure of a man (I wanna kiss it better, the measure of a man) The measure of a man (I wanna kiss it better, the measure of a man) [Bridge: Central Cee] It's the manners that make a man But the hammers that break a man Damn, they wanted to see me broke But I flipped the script and I broke the pen Young and wealthy Don't let it overwhelm me, I still get fed Still can't tell me Not when the system fail me, I still bounce back I run this ting, got a lot of endurance What do you know about drastic measures? I married a hustle, me in the game like Harry and Meghan Some man in my hood too jealous Why do you think that we carry a weapon? Take time and trust the process, life's a game of chess, not checkers Stop ballin', you gotta stop stressin' You gotta stop thinkin' you won't get through it It's all in your mind I've go down a couple of times, I got up and go back to it [Chorus: FKA Twigs] Only (Only), you can (You can), truly (Truly), understand The measure (Measure), of a (Of a), hero is the measure of a man The measure of a man [Outro] Only you can truly understand The measure of a hero is the measure of a man The measure of a man Ooh-ooh-ooh
