[Verse 1]
~#**************#~
I would be complex, I would be cool
~#**************#~
Theyd 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, Id be an alpha type
~#**************#~
When everyone believes ya, whats that like?
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
I’m so sick of running as fast as I can
~#**************#~
Wonderin if Id get there quicker if I was a man
~#**************#~
And Im so sick of them comin at me again
~#**************#~
‘Cause if I was a man, then Id be the man
~#**************#~
Id be the man (Man)
~#**************#~
I’d be the man (Man)
~#**************#~
[Verse 2]
~#**************#~
They’d say I hustled, put in the work
~#**************#~
They wouldnt 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 (Ayy), let the players play
~#**************#~
I’d be just like Leo in Saint-Tropez
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
Im so sick of running as fast as I can
~#**************#~
Wonderin if Id get there quicker if I was a man
~#**************#~
And I’m so sick of them comin at me again
~#**************#~
‘Cause if I was a man, then Id be the man
~#**************#~
Id be the man (Man)
~#**************#~
Id be the man (Man)
~#**************#~
[Bridge]
~#**************#~
Whats it like to brag about raking in dollars
~#**************#~
And getting bitches and models?
~#**************#~
And its all good if youre bad
~#**************#~
And its okay if youre mad
~#**************#~
If I was out flashin my dollars
~#**************#~
Id be a bitch, not a baller
~#**************#~
Theyd paint me out to be bad
~#**************#~
So its okay that Im mad
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
Im so sick of running as fast as I can
~#**************#~
Wonderin if Id get there quicker if I was a man (You know that)
~#**************#~
And Im so sick of them comin at me again (Comin at me again)
~#**************#~
‘Cause if I was a man (If I was a man), then Id be the man (Then Id be the man)
~#**************#~
Im so sick of running as fast as I can (As fast as I can)
~#**************#~
Wonderin if Id get there quicker if I was a man (Hey)
~#**************#~
And Im so sick of them comin at me again (Comin at me again)
~#**************#~
‘Cause if I was a man (If I was a man), then Id be the man
~#**************#~
Id be the man (Man)
~#**************#~
Id be the man (Man, oh)
~#**************#~
Id be the man (Man, yeah)
~#**************#~
Id be the man (Man, Id be the man)
~#**************#~
[Outro]
~#**************#~
If I was a man
~#**************#~
Then Id be the man
