[Verse 1: A.D. Scott]
I never thought it would end like this
Spending time reminiscing on
All the "just friends" i kissed
Thinking "why we couldn't get along?"
I just wanted my time, my time, just to grind for the
Lime light, trying to get signed right?
No life, cause you know I got to get this sh** to sound right
Cause if it sound right then I'm Riding
If it sound right then you'll like it
When the lights was off you stood by me
Now the boy is 23 with no wifey
Trading food stamps for my Nike's
Flipped them and bought some Adidas
And I'm not ashamed of my ways
Put that on my momma name, its Anita
This sh** is my boggling, your self esteem became my problem
So i kept the dreams in my mind bobbin back in forth
Back in forth, your, adamant to kiss and make up
Then its back to war, n***a hang in, praying
That i be careful what i'm asking for, Amen
A man, awe dang-it Adrian's changing
"yea b**h you guessed it!"
Well remember to count your scars with your blessing
Stay read and bow your head if you don't do nothing else
And give em hell, and always be yourself
[Hook: A.D. Scott]
Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah
Just let me be myself
Cause I'm the Man, Dammit I'm the man
Shout out to Gambino
Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah
Now It's cool to be myself
Cause I'm the Man
And chance showed me how to do it
Shout out to Gambino
[Verse 2: A.D. Scott]
Ever since a little kid, i always dreamed I'd Be significant
To somebody, If not everybody then somebody but
This illmatic, and I'm still at it, lane changed but I'm still rappin'
Mike jack the boy still bad and I'm still braggin'
I'm the king of the Absolute Dopamine
Kid's say "what the f** is that supposed to mean?"
At this rate, it can mean what you want it to mean
I just said it on a record, what you want from me?!
Cause I'm 5 foot 8, and my sh** sound great
But they judge and they hate, cause I talk this way
But, I was inspired from a little child, n***a, do you mind?
You on your grind, so am I, Do yours and I'll do mine
Now you feel the fear of god, he's on my side
So one more time, Let get it jumping like
[Hook: A.D. Scott]
Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah
Just let me be myself
Cause I'm the Man, Dammit I'm the man
Shout out to Gambino
Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah
Now It's cool to be myself
Cause I'm the Man
And chance showed me how to do it
Shout out to Gambino
[Outro: A.D. Scott]
I'm going to always do it cause I'm the Man
I'm the man I'm the Man I'm The Man
This the last song that I'll ever sing
I wish I could do it again, and again
But This the last song that I'll ever sing
I just want to do it, again
Let do it, again
I swear I would do it all again
I just want to thank god again and again
Come on, lets do it, again
Like this the last song, that'll ever sing
(one more time), I just want to do it
Oh man, can't we do it, again
This the last song that I'll,...
This the last song
