Mm-mm, mm
I was raised on dust and steel
Told a man should never feel
Hold your pain and hide your eyes
Never let them see you cry
They call me weak, they call me wrong
Said a man should just stay strong
But I've carried years of rain, buried deep inside my pain
A man can cry, a man can break
A man can bend beneath the weight
It doesn't mean he's lost the fight
It means he's still alive tonight
A man can cry, let the tears roll free
Even kings can bow on their knees
There's strength in pain, no shame in why
It's not weak when a man can cry
Mm, mm
I've been laughed at by the crowd
For saying hurt out loud
They said: Stand tall, don't fall apart
But they never saw my heart
I loved, I lost, I paid the cost
I found myself in what I lost
Every scar and every line
Tells the story of my time
A man can cry, a man can break
A man can bend beneath the weight
It doesn't mean he's lost the fight
It means he's still alive tonight
A man can cry, let the tears roll free
Even kings can bow on their knees
There's strength in pain, no shame in why
It's not weak when a man can cry
Mm, mm
I have walked that lonely road
Carried more than I could hold
If your heart is tired and sore
Let it open, let it pour
A man can cry, a man can break
A man can bend beneath the weight
It doesn't mean he's lost the fight
It means he's still alive tonight
A man can cry, let the tears roll free
Even kings can bow on their knees
There's strength in pain, no shame in why
It's not weak when a man can cry
Mm-mm, mm, mm
