- Boys To Men Lyrics

Growing up can be a pain
You're not a man until you've come of age
We've given up our teenage years
In the effort to pursue our career

Who assumes responsibility
Of having to support our families
Who's protecting us from harm
Is there anyone around that we can trust?

So we search for answers to our questions
Looking for the answers
No answers but we are taught a lesson every time
Through mistakes we've learned to gather wisdom
Life's responsibility falls in our hands

Keep on learning, keep on growing
Wisdom helps us understand
We're maturing without knowing
These are the things that change boys to men

Oh, the goals we set may exceed reality
'Cause failure always is a possibility
Who can tell us that we're wrong
It's up to us to figure out what life is all about

So we search for answers to our questions
Looking for the answers
No answers but we are taught a lesson every time
Through mistakes we've learned to gather wisdom
And wisdom helps us see our responsibility

Keep on learning, keep on growing
Wisdom helps us understand
We're maturing without knowing
These are the things that change boys to men

Keep on learning, keep on growing
Growing up can be a pain
We're maturing without knowing

Keep on learning, keep on growing
Keep on growing
We're maturing without knowing

Keep on learning, keep on growing
No answers but we are taught a lesson every time
We're maturing without knowing
