Man I Used To Be

*Starts on Chorus Chorus I tried it, I couldn't find it Now I just wanna get back to me Play this twice Awe baby, hoo hoo | Back into the man I used to be VERSE Things that I said I wouldn't do, I did 'em Secrets below the service of truth I hid 'em This mankind is past, but can he erase The tears of a million years is human race Of animals, that taught to walk upright Then slave all day and fall in a trance at night Flowing the planet, trying to find missing links Like the men we used to be and always suppose to think Mysteries, maybe not It's getting hot, we better configure the plot, but I hold a pen with the grip so tight That's squeeze the ink out'ta the page, and write a song for the people Came up from the underground, now I write above on a hovercraft sound This microphone, like an an amphetamine Keeping me clean, speaking in dreams So nature can intervene, just for a scene I tried it, I couldn't find it Now I just wanna get back to me Awe baby, hoo hoo Back into the man I used to be Instrumental BREAK () verse 2 I walk the long path alone, my feet hurt Lost some friends along the way, I did dirt I went to church, I tried everything From leaving my body, to watching the birds sing For hours, so I could feel heavenly powers Had been across the universe and inside of flowers But what is it worth, I'm still just a man on the earth Rappers are acting like man tan Can I be candid, I can't stand it Rap bandit, got Kheaven acting frantic I wanna swing my sword decapitate But what is a man if he acts like an ape So I sit back, planning my great escape Load up my EPS and peruse my record crate The man I used to be, I can only see by looking beyond me So what is reality, I don't know Chorus* I tried it, I couldn't find it Now I just wanna get back to me Awe baby, hoo hoo Back into the man I used to be ( Back into the man I use to be ( Back into the man I use to be ( x3) I tried it, I couldn't find it * Let the last few Eb's fade out
