[Verse 1] Watching my baby Grow up, be a man Bullies try stopping I don’t understand [Verse 2] Innocent moments Slowly erase It’s hard to watch Pain in his face [Chorus] You can’t smile no more You can’t dream no more The things that you do Are not meant no more [Chorus] Can’t be soft no more Can’t be kind no more And if you’re a man You can’t cry no more [Verse 3] Little by little A day at a time Changes beginning Or be left behind [Verse 4] Don’t turn a cheek While standing your ground And when he gets up Then knock him back down [Chorus] You can’t smile no more You can’t dream no more The things that you do Are not meant no more [Chorus] Can’t be soft no more Can’t be kind no more And if you’re a man You can’t cry no more [Bridge] It’s all up to you from a boy to a man Toughen him up, it’s all in the plan No sign of kindness and not meant to be No room for crying it’s weakness you see [Solo] [Verse 5] You hit him back, son Don’t walk away He’s just a bully He’s weak so they say [Verse 6] He’s just your baby A boy to a man He cannot cry, mom Don’t you understand [Chorus] You can’t smile no more You can’t dream no more The things that you do Are not meant no more [Chorus] Can’t be soft no more Can’t be kind no more And if you’re a man You can’t cry no more
