The Man

I would be complex, I would be cool

They'd say I played the field before I found someone to commit to

That would be okay for me to do

Every conquest I had made would make me more of a boss to you

I’d be a fearless leader

I'd be an alpha type

When everyone believes you

What's that like?

I’m so sick of running as fast as I can

Wondering if I'd get there quicker if I was a man

And I'm so sick of them coming at me again

‘Cause if I was a man, then I'd be the man

I'd be the man

I'd be the man

They say I hustled, put in the work

They wouldn't shake their heads and question how much of this I deserve

What I was wearing, if I was rude

Could I be separated from my good ideas and power moves?

And they would toast to me, oh, let the players play

I'd be just like Leo in Saint Tropez

I’m so sick of running as fast as I can

Wondering if I’d get there quicker if I was a man

And I'm so sick of them coming at me again

‘Cause if I was a man, then I’d be the man

I'd be the man

I'd be the man

What's it like to brag about rainking in dollars?

And getting bitches and models?

And it’s so good if you're bad

And it's okay if you're mad

If I was out flashing my dollars I'd be a bitch not a baller

They'd paint me out to be bad

So, it's okay that I'm mad

I'm so sick of running as fast as I can

Wondering if I'd get there quicker if I was a man (You know that) And I'm so sick of them coming at me again (Coming at me again)

‘Cause if I was a man (If I was a man), then I'd be the man (Then I'd be the man)

And I'm so sick of running as fast as I can (As fast as I can)

Wondering if I'd get there quicker if I was a man (Hey!)

And I'm so sick of them coming at me again (Coming at me again)

‘Cause if I was a man, then I'd be the man (If I was a man)

I'd be the man

I'd be the man

(Oh)

I'd be the man (Yeah)

I'd be the man

(I'd be the man)

If I was a man, I'd be the man
