What  does it take to be  a man?
What  does it take to see
 Its all heart  and soul
 A gentle  hand?
So  easy to want and so hard  to give
How  can you be a man
 till you see  beyond the life  you live?
Oh,  what does it take to be a man?
We  can be blind, but a man  tries to  see
It  takes tenderness
 For a man  to be what he  can be
And  what does it mean
 If you're weak  or strong?
A  gentle feelin
 Can make  it right or make  it wrong
What  does it take to be  a man?
The  will to give  and not receive
The  strength to say  what you believe
The  heart to feel  what others feel  inside
To  see what they can see
 A man is somethin thats real
 Its not what you are
  Its what you can feel
 It cant be too late
 To look through the hate and see
 I know thats what a man can be
