A Mans Pride

Men strive to be the Best providers for their families But it's a tough job when There's many mouths to feed Men are good role models And excellent father figures You younger ones will Know What I mean when you get bigger Yhey all carry their pride so high But you can see the pain in their eyes Working so hard only to Get laid off with less pay Struggling to keep their families Together day by day Men try to stay strong But no matter how hard they try You can still see the pain and the Worry in their eyes They give out so much They'll do anything for love They will give their hearts and souls Even try to give you the heavens above They will never show it Forever they will hide You can take a lot from a man But you can never take away his pride FOR OPPOSITE SEX CONTEST
