Strong men
They don't always get the spotlight
But they carry the weight quietly
Quiety, consistently with strength
That doesn't need to be seen to be real
They lead when it's lonely
They pray when they're tired
They love their families more
Than they love their pride
They don't flex for applause
They fight for their legacy
They're not perfect, but they're present
Not flawless, but faithful
It's VEDO, baby
Real men don't cry, yeah
That's what I was always taught
Work to provide
'Cause if we ain't got, it it's my fault
Never show a weakness
That's when it sneaks in
So I got to stand ten toes down
And even if it tears me up
Don't let them see your head held down
I went to war with myself
A few things I had to unveil, the true
Just to be a strong man
Just to be a stronger man for you
I went to war with myself, it's true
Some things I had to confess to you
Just to be a strong man
So I can be a stronger man for you
Some days I'm good
And simply at times I'm not
Some are long, good days are few (Long)
I still put on my smile for you (Oh, I'm just)
I'm just a man tryin' to stay true
And every day is better with you
By my side, yeah
You just don't know, you just don't know
I went to war with myself (Yeah)
A few things I had to unveil, the true (Yeah)
Just to be a strong man (A strong man)
Just to be a stronger man for you (Oh)
I went to war with myself, it's true
Some things I had to confess to you (I must confess, girl)
Just to be a strong man (A strong, strong man)
So I can be a stronger man for you
Strong men stand up
In a world that tells men to shrink back
They lift more than weights, they lift burdens
They break cycles, they build futures
They embody integrity when no one's looking
They're fathers, brothers, sons, mentors
Gentle with hearts but fierce with demons
Tough with truth, tender with love
Men of God, men of grit, men of grace
Strong man
