Aloe Blacc: The Man


Girl, you can tell everybody
Yeah, you can tell everybody
Go ahead and tell everybody
Reveal the man, I'm the man, I'm the man
Yes, I am, yes, I am, yes, I am
Reveal the man, I'm the man, I'm the man

I believe every lie that I ever told
Paid for every heart that I ever stole
I paid my cause and I didn't fold
Well, it ain't that hard when you got soul (This is my world)
Somewhere I heard that life is a test
I been though the worst but still I give my best yeah
God made my mold different from the rest
Then he broke that mold so I know I'm blessed in the name of God

Stand up now and face the sun
Won't hide my tail or turn and run
It's time to do what must be done
Be a king when kingdom comes

Girl, you can tell everybody
Yeah, you can tell everybody
Go ahead and tell everybody
I'm the man, I'm the man, I'm the man

Girl, you can tell everybody
Yeah, you can tell everybody
Go ahead and tell everybody
Reveal the man, I'm the man, I'm the man
Yes, I am, yes, I am, yes, I am
I'm the man, I'm the man, I'm the man

I got all the answers to your questions
I'll be the teacher, you could be the lesson
I'll be the pastor, you be the confession
I'll be the quick relief to all your stressing (This is my world)
It's a thin line between love and hate
Is you really real or is you really fake?
I'm a soldier standing on my feet
No surrender and I won't retreat (This is my world)

Stand up now and face the sun
Won't hide my tail or turn and run
It's time to do what must be done
Be a king when kingdom comes

Girl, you can tell everybody
Yeah, you can tell everybody
Go ahead and tell everybody
I'm the man, I'm the man, I'm the man

Girl, you can tell everybody
Yeah, you can tell everybody
Go ahead and tell everybody
I'm the man, I'm the man, I'm the man
Yes, I am, yes, I am, yes, I am
I'm the man, I'm the man, I'm the man

I'm the man
Go ahead and tell everybody what I'm saying y'all
I'm the man
Go ahead and tell everybody what I'm saying y'all

Girl, you can tell everybody

Go ahead and tell everybody
I'm the man, I'm the man, I'm the man
