"Measure Of A Man" lyrics
(feat. JOSEPH)
Who have I become
Am I a man or just sum of all the things I've done?
Will it ever be enough?
Do these shadows that I've tried to outrun
Deserve to be loved?
If life is counted by the years
And lived by the days and
Basked in the moments
Of joy and pain?
Will it be my great successes or my greatest defeats
Who I was in blessings or when I was on my knees
And I didn't know what to do, and I didn't understand
Oh, I've wondering where I'd line up
To a measure of a man
Who have I become?
Would the man I am make proud the boy
That I was?
Will I ever be enough?
Are these failures that I've tried to cover up
Worthy of love?
When I get to the end
Will it be my great successes or my greatest defeats
Who I was in blessings or when I was on my knees
And I didn't know what to do, and I didn't understand
Oh, I've been wondering where I'd line up
To a measure of a man
Was it when I gave without wanting anything in return
Or every broken promise or the bridges that I've burned
Was it when I sunk lower or the taller I try to stand
Oh, I've been wondering where I'd belong
To a measure of a man
Am I a man or just sum of all the things I've done?
Will it ever be enough?
Do these shadows that I've tried to outrun
Deserve to be loved?
If life is counted by the years
And lived by the days and
Basked in the moments
Of joy and pain?
Will it be my great successes or my greatest defeats
Who I was in blessings or when I was on my knees
And I didn't know what to do, and I didn't understand
Oh, I've wondering where I'd line up
To a measure of a man
Who have I become?
Would the man I am make proud the boy
That I was?
Will I ever be enough?
Are these failures that I've tried to cover up
Worthy of love?
When I get to the end
Will it be my great successes or my greatest defeats
Who I was in blessings or when I was on my knees
And I didn't know what to do, and I didn't understand
Oh, I've been wondering where I'd line up
To a measure of a man
Was it when I gave without wanting anything in return
Or every broken promise or the bridges that I've burned
Was it when I sunk lower or the taller I try to stand
Oh, I've been wondering where I'd belong
To a measure of a man
