One of my favorite songs ever is “What Makes a Man” by City and Color. I first heard it at summer camp when I was ten years old. It was played for us by a counselor on boys night, and he intended the song as a prompt to get us (a bunch of 10–16 year olds) to start thinking about what it meant to be a man in this world.
