It's time for a change! This generation... this generation needs a hero!
What is a man, who lays a hand on his lover, and calls it tough love, tough love
What is a man, who can't take a stand for his daughter, and calls it tough love, tough love
Your roots grow in the cracks of the alleys, college park made you
Man enough to see, man enough to see, there ain't a goddamn man in me
Take me back to a date before I was hostile and learned to hate
You promised you would never become,
You promised you would never become,
A storm a blackout replicating the one
The thunder inside him became your life
And you called him your best friend 'til the day you were nine
What is a man, who lays a hand on his lover, and calls it tough love, tough love
What is a man, who can't take a stand for his daughter, and calls it tough love, tough love
