lyrics

I’m asking you to cross that sea, will you climb for me?
Crawl through that hell clutching your life in your hand.
Go ahead and dodge that bus, dredging through all the lies and mud
Get on your box top man and take a stand.

Life is like a jury so you gotta take a stand, cause I need you to be the man, can’t hold on to this with one hand so you got to take a stand, cause I need you to be the man.

A gold balance weighs our fate, feel free cross-examinant.
The mistress swallows all the lost and the damned.
Tell me what I want to hear and in the end it will cost you dear
Lay down the law so you can take back your land.

Life is like a jury so you gotta take a stand, cause I need you to be the man, can’t hold on to this with one hand so you got to take a stand, cause I need you to be the man.

Grow a set get off the hook
Swear to me on the holy book
That you will always live for which it stands

Life is like a jury so you gotta take a stand, cause I need you to be the man, can’t hold on to this with one hand so you got to take a stand, cause I need you to be the man, be the man, Come on and be the man.
