Strong Man

I am a strong man

I fight
I'm loyal
I love

I'll work until my hands bleed
For what my family needs
I'll defend until my death
As I take my last breath

My loves
My family
My friends

I'm a husband, brother, a son
I've become, a father, a grandfather
I'll tell you what I think
And not blink

I'm loving,
I'm kind
I cry

But don't cross me
For you will see
I will be 
Your worst enemy

I am a strong man
