The Man (Live From Paris)

[Verse 1] 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 [Pre-Chorus] I'd be a fearless leader I'd be an alpha type When everyone believes ya What's that like? [Chorus] 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 [Verse 2] 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, if I was rude Could all be separated from my good ideas and power moves [Pre-Chorus] And they would toast to me, oh, let the players play I'd be just like Leo in Saint-Tropez [Chorus] 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 [Bridge] 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'd paint me out to be bad So, it's okay that I'm mad- [Chorus] 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 '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 Oh, I'd be the man I'd be the man [Outro] If I was a man, then I'd be the man
