Lyrics

I was raised to be the man, not show the tears
Taught to fight the world, not show the fears
But behind the calm and all the pride
Is a boy who never learned to cry
Built a home, tried to lead with pride
But some days I'm just tryna survive
I ain't flawless, nah — I made my share
But I stayed, even when I wasn't prepared
I said things I regret, made peace in silence
Tried to heal in war, stood alone in defiance
But I ain't hiding, nah — I'm still standing here
Trying to lead with love, not led by fear
This is my testimony, not perfect but mine
Still learning how to grow and walk that line
A provider, protector — but yeah, I feel too
Trying to break the curse so my kids can push through
My tears don't make me weak — they remind me I'm real
My scars don't shame me — they show I still heal
This is my testimony, not the man I was before
But the one who's building legacy… and so much more
I've been the hero, I've been the blame
I've held it together while drowning in shame
But I rise, every morning, 'cause they watching me
My kids need more than just what they see
I respect my queen — I protect my name
Even when life don't play fair in this game
I ain't flawless, but I'm finally free
To speak my truth with dignity
This is my testimony, not perfect but mine
Still learning how to grow and walk that line
A provider, protector — but yeah, I feel too
Trying to break the curse so my kids can push through
My tears don't make me weak — they remind me I'm real
My scars don't shame me — they show I still heal
This is my testimony, not the man I was before
But the one who's building legacy… and so much more
To every man carryin' weight in silence —
You ain't broken.
You ain't soft.
You're growing.
Your story… is your strength.
Your truth… is your weapon.
Your legacy… is waiting.
Testify.
