(Verse 1)
They say be strong, don’t let ‘em see you fall,
Carry the weight, you’ve got to bear it all.
Society’s script, a role carved in stone,
But when I’m drowning, I’m always alone.
(Pre-Chorus)
She wants a provider, the world wants a king,
But no one asks what the silence brings.
(Chorus)
I’m a man on demand, always on call,
Climbing mountains, breaking through walls.
Hold the line, hide the pain, never let it show,
Who I am inside? They’ll never know.
Sacrifice my soul, meet the world’s command,
This is the life of a man on demand.
(Verse 2)
They want ambition, but not too much pride,
Strength in the storm but tender inside.
Every smile hides the war in my chest,
Chasing their dreams while ignoring my rest.
(Pre-Chorus)
She wants me perfect, they want me tough,
But tell me, when’s enough just enough?
(Chorus)
I’m a man on demand, always on call,
Climbing mountains, breaking through walls.
Hold the line, hide the pain, never let it show,
Who I am inside? They’ll never know.
Sacrifice my soul, meet the world’s command,
This is the life of a man on demand.
(Bridge)
Hold her heart, protect the home,
Fight the fight, but die alone.
Am I human, or just their machine?
A ghost of a man chasing unseen dreams.
(Chorus)
I’m a man on demand, always on call,
Climbing mountains, breaking through walls.
Hold the line, hide the pain, never let it show,
Who I am inside? They’ll never know.
Sacrifice my soul, meet the world’s command,
This is the life of a man on demand.
(Outro)
So here I stand, with the weight in my hands,
Caught in the push, the pull, the demands.
But deep in my heart, I still understand,
I’m more than their vision—I’m still a man.
