Nobody feels the pain behind the love you show Nobody feels the burden that is yours alone If when the morning comes you′re not with me (destiny)I know that you'll return with destiny 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) Your body bears the scars of every man I know So softly I wanna kiss it better, the scarlet letter To me, you don′t belong If when the morning comes, you're not with me (destiny) I know that you'll return with destiny 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) 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 give thanks Still can't tell me Nothin′, the system failed me I still bounced back I run this ting, got a lot of endurance What you know about drastic measures? I married the hustle Me and the game, like Harry and Meaghan Some man in my hood too jealous Why do you feel that we carry a weapon? Take time and trust the process Life's a game of chess, not checkers Told bro that, "You gotta stop stressin′" "Gotta stop thinkin' you won′t get through it" "It's all in your mind" "I failed a couple of times" "I got up and got back to it" 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 Only you can truly understand The measure of a hero, is the measure of a man The measure of a man
