VERSE
Gm
Things that I said I wouldn't do, I did 'em
Gm
Secrets below the service of truth I hid 'em
Gm
This mankind is past, but can he erase
Gm F
The tears of a million years is human race
Eb
Of animals, that taught to walk upright
Eb
Then slave all day and fall in a trance at night
Eb
Flowing the planet, trying to find missing links
Eb F
Like the men we used to be and always suppose to think
Gm
Mysteries, maybe not
Gm
It's getting hot, we better configure the plot, but
Gm
I hold a pen with the grip so tight
Gm F Eb
That's squeeze the ink out'ta the page, and write a song for the people
Eb Eb
Came up from the underground, now I write above on a hovercraft sound
Eb
This microphone, like an an amphetamine
Eb
Keeping me clean, speaking in dreams
F Gm
So nature can intervene, just for a scene
CHORUS
Gm
I tried it, I couldn't find it
Gm F Eb
Now I just wanna get back to me
Eb Eb
Awe baby, hoo hoo
Eb F Gm
Back into the man I used to be

VERSE 2
Gm
I walk the long path alone, my feet hurt
Gm
Lost some friends along the way, I did dirt
Gm
I went to church, I tried everything
Gm F
From leaving my body, to watching the birds sing
Eb
For hours, so I could feel heavenly powers
Eb
Had been across the universe and inside of flowers
Eb Eb
But what is it worth, I'm still just a man on the earth
F
Rappers are acting like man tan
Gm
Can I be candid, I can't stand it
Gm
Rap bandit, got Kheaven acting frantic
Gm
I wanna swing my sword decapitate
Gm F
But what is a man if he acts like an ape
Eb
So I sit back, planning my great escape
Eb
Load up my EPS and peruse my record crate
Eb Eb
The man I used to be, I can only see by looking beyond me
F Gm
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 |
| Do not play hear, just clean vocals and piano.
Awe baby, hoo hoo |
|
Back into the man I used to be |
