Koritni - Take It Like a Man lyrics

You know my mother told me but I as a little boy It's about time that you grew up son, and threw away your toys I ried and cried and i could'nt beleive That life could be so cruel, and oh so mean It was a lesson that I could'nt forget, but it didn"r change a thing Well when I was an adolescent the teacher said to me That I was the worst child that he ever did see They tried to dominate me into submission But they cound'nt bring me down, now the wheel's going to turn Try to break me, they said "he'll never learn" I said "Don't forsake me cause you necer know when the tables will turn" Stand up and take it like a man Stand up take it if you can Stand up take it like a man Stand up and take it, just take it like a man Wgen i turned 17 I thought that everthing would change But i quickly realised that the difference was the same The teachers turnes into police, the pencils became guns Now educations called suppression, the playground's called a slum Try to make me conform when will you learn? I said "don't mistake me It's just a matter of time before your neighborhood burns" Daddy always said to me "boy just do the best you can In every situation stay on your feet and take it like a man" yeah Stand up, take it Stand up, take it like a man Stand up, take it Stand up, take it like a man if you can Stand up and take it like a man Stand up take it if you can Stand up take it like a man Now you're a man son, start acting like one Separate yourself from the crowd Stand up and take it like a man now
