Trip Lee - Man Up Anthem lyrics

[Intro] Man Up [Verse 1: Lecrae] Momma want some Obama in me, The hood want 'Pac Hip Hop want to see the Common in me And since it's a senseless contradiction I end up a misfit trying to fit in This ends when I stand up And see the hands of the standard, holy is the Lamb huh Now we holding you to Man Up Cus we were made in His image Start lookin' at what you came from [Verse 2: KB] (Hey listen) Right after Adam every atom in our anatomy is Adamic Adamant After what Adonai is against Let me take you back to the tree in Eden If you read it you'll see that Eve was deceived But Adam's the one who let her eat Instead of leading No we ain't leading We bump that Basically little boys with muscles and our mustache To femininity we need a remedy The God-Man 100% masculinity [Verse 3: Trip Lee] We the last Yeah Where the men at? It seems like they all lost None of them are on the scene it 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 and we really got the blues like Navi I want to celebrate the dudes that's beside me Fellas let's elevate, we do with the lively [Verse 4: Tedashii] They lie Go ahead dead boy get your shine on And if a s**a try to buck ya get your 9 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 tryin' to solve it All the while we walking dead, man somebody bring the coffin Voice dropped, peach fuzz Now you think that you a man 'cus you feelin' yourself You need to Man Up [Verse 5: Sho Baraka] There's many things men is chasing after They got some questions, we got some answers Sex and models and tippin' bottles back Pile up excuses right next to your bottle caps A Rolodex filled with names that you aim to please Next to the stack of money building up a heart of greed Ice on his neck givin' jokers the cold shoulder You drunk off pride plus you lovin' the hangover You gotta whole lot of stuff that won't amount to gain Life will never make sense because you never made change [Verse 6: Derek Minor] You got it twisted and sick like a fever Lil' man live to stack dough, Keebler Man up, get up outta the tree house Leave the 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 know how your man is A boy in a man's body like Tom Hanks in "Big" [Verse 7: Andy Mineo] Yeah Bein' a man ain't got nothin' to do with age You could be a boy 'til the day you lay in a grave None of us behave like the image of who we're made Cause we fall in the way, it's better known as depraved Runnin' from responsibility Really we crave the easy way out of places that call us to pull our weight Man they goin' through every day decisions are made Responding to the call God's given them from the gate [Outro: Andy Mineo] (Man up) Let the process begin, let's 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 will follow him (Man Up) We the last of a dying breed it's time that we...
