He's bold, He's courageous.
He defends the integrity of his homeland.
Sometimes, he falls by the way side as a soldier;
His gun by his side.
Other times, he bleeds
doing everything to keep his family together.
If he's not at the war front
he's at the home front.
All eyes look up to him,
he's afraid of failing.
Because society has high expectations of him
What's a man who cannot feed his family?
What's a man who cannot work?
A man who cannot prove his worth?
A man who cannot perform in bed?
It's normal to blame him for the problems in society.
Who else did God delegate to cater for the garden?
It was the man!
And the moment he was slack in his duty
He didn't only lose his home
He lost his paradise.
Till now he's trying hard to rebuild that paradise
You see him furnish his house to a delectable taste.
He says;"If it's not close to eden at least, it should be close to my woman's heart."
He works tirelessly so she can live in comfort
And their children can be happy
He doesn't complain about his responsibilities because he knows HOW TO BE A MAN.
