The Man (Live From Paris)

I would be complex I would be cool They'd say I played the field before I found someone to commit to And 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 ya 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'd 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 Or if I was rude Could all 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, yeah What's it like to brag about raking in dollars And getting bitches and models? And it's all 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 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 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, yeah Yeah, I'd be the man, yeah Well, I'd be the man I'd be the man If I was a man Then I'd be the man
