Boys To Men
Boys will be boys.
What does that even mean?
Get drunk and high with your friends,
have sex with every girl that says “Hi” to you.
But its ok because their excuse for it is “Boys will be boys.”
Fight the men that question your authority and power over them,
fear the expression of brotherly love for another man
(until your drunk).
Skip classes because you want to spend time with people to use your voice
That your entertaining absolutely no one with.
But its ok because their excuse for it is “Boys will be boys”
What I don’t understand is why would it be ok
For a man to display boyish behavior.
I’m sorry but those who participate this are not men.
A man
Does what’s best for his family,
accepts all for who they are,
Respects women on all levels,
and puts his queen first.
Can say “I love you” to whom it applies to
without fear of how it looks or sounds.
Puts his priorities in order, correctly.
Can ask for help when its needed.
Can admit when he is wrong.
Will never say “boys will be boys.”
Boys are not men
and men do not act like boys.
My last thought is as follows;
If you are a man,
do not let a boy persuade you to his side.
