Life's tough in a dying age; Hundred years of war and plagues
This church and crown; Been holding us down
Even God's been split in parts; Priests and princes gone lost their hearts
Their all deranged, it's time for change
We need a Renaissance man; Something better than
Sometimes you must resist; fashion yourself a humanist
It's your time; go be divine
Call out the classics, challenge the stars; Don't be afraid of who you are
Rebirth's here; No need to fear
I'll be a Renaissance Man; I'll be as much as I can
I'll be a Renaissance Man (I've got dignity man)
Be a scholar, be a baller, fight that squalor
You need some help all you do is holler
I'm the Renaissance Man
This life ain't about the wealth
When you're around me just be your natural self
I'm the Renaissance Man
Be the Renaissance Man
And now I see the light; it's gonna be a fight
Come me with me; I'll set us free
