Man In Me |
|
There's a man in me |
|
He's cold and he's hard |
|
He's got an eye for deception |
|
He's always on guard |
|
He's swimming in concrete |
|
Drowning in fear |
|
And he keeps it all locked in his heart |
|
This man is a tyrant, a fault finding hack |
|
You can't tell him nothing |
|
There's no turning back |
|
He leaves blood on the highway and scattered debris |
|
He crawls from the wreckage but he still doesn't see |
|
He's alive |
|
The man is jive |
|
There's a man in the mirror |
|
I don't like his looks |
|
His teeth they are crooked |
|
His hands are like hooks |
|
He speaks 4 letter language |
|
Because his mind is so small |
|
His voice is like venom |
|
I don't like him at all |
|
God, I gotta get away from the man in me |
|
She says What are you afraid of |
|
There's no need to judge |
|
You know I can help you |
|
But you won't even budge |
|
Pretty flowers surround you but all you can smell is a rat |
|
She says Why do you insist on your head in the sand |
|
Building walls all around you, you don't understand |
|
These ways are outmoded, but all you can change is your hat |
|
The man in me don't wanna know nothing about that |
|
There's a man in the closet |
|
He wants to come out |
|
He wants to be noticed |
|
But he's so filled with doubt |
|
He wants to be well known and famous |
|
But he's so filled with pride |
|
The keys to his fortune stay locked up inside |
|
Can it be the man in me? |
|
She says Now what are you afraid of? |
|
There's nothing to fear |
|
You want me to help |
|
But you won't let me near |
|
In your heart you can hear me |
|
But all you believe are your eyes |
|
Tell me why you're convinced |
|
That a fist in your face is all you deserve |
|
From love you've misplaced |
|
The truth is salvation |
|
But all you believe in are lies |
|
The man in me wants to believe, but he won't even try |
|
There's man in me, and he's so full of hate |
|
He's so misdirected |
|
He thinks it's too late |
|
Pours salt on the wounds |
|
Only Time wants to heal |
|
He's dying inside |
|
And he don't wanna feel |
|
Anything The man is strange |
