Prompt / Lyrics
[Intro – Piano + soft strings] Nobody tells you this when you’re young… They tell you how to be a gentleman. They don’t tell you… What it costs. ⸻ [Verse 1] 🎶 They teach you how to dress, how to speak, How to make sure everybody eat. How to stand tall, how to stay calm, How to make people feel no harm. They teach you how to hide your pain, How to smile through the rain. How to never let them see you fall… How to carry it all. 🎶 ⸻ [Hook] 🎶 That’s the gentleman’s burden, Carrying the world like it’s light. Being strong for everybody else… Every single night. That’s the gentleman’s burden, Never let them see you break. Even when your heart so tired… You do it for their sake. 🎶 ⸻ [Verse 2] 🎶 They love the way you make them feel, They love the calm, they love the real. They love the man that never complains, The one that always take the blame. But nobody ever pulls you close, And says “I got you, you can let go.” Nobody ever says “be weak tonight, You don’t gotta be strong tonight.” 🎶 ⸻ [Hook] 🎶 That’s the gentleman’s burden, Carrying the world like it’s light. Being strong for everybody else… Every single night. 🎶 ⸻ [Bridge – Soft, emotional] 🎶 I don’t regret the man I am… I just get tired sometimes. 🎶 ⸻ [Final Verse] 🎶 So if you ever love a man like me, A calm, cool man with dignity… Just hold him close and let him rest, Cause even strong men need a chest. And if he don’t say it, understand… Sometimes it’s heavy being the man. 🎶 ⸻ [Outro – Piano + strings fade] Yeah… Being a gentleman is an honor. But it’s also… a burden.
