Measure of a Man Songtext
von Judah & the Lion

Who have I become?
Am I a man or just the sum of all
The things l′ve done?

Will it ever be enough?
Do these shadows that l'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, l've wondering where l′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, l've been wondering where l′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 l've burned?
Was it when I sunk lower or the taller I tried to stand?

Oh, l′ve been wondering where l'd belong
To a measure of a man
