Nigga I'm the man think it's time that you noticed
I'm the man with the plan I just gotta stay focused
Even when times get hard I never second that emotion
And I know who I am but it was nice for you to notice
I been the man since a big head a little one
Mama had four of us I'm the middle one
Coming up the only boy that shit was really tough
But what don't tare you down is meant to build you up
Every time I think of turning back I picture me again
Back when I was small just to believe again
Gotta keep going gotta boss up
I remember how I used to feel washed up (Now look at me)
Nigga I'm the man think it's time that you noticed
I'm the man with the plan I just gotta stay focused
Even when times get hard I never second that emotion
And I know who I am but it was nice for you to notice
I can't stand by and watch my life pass me by
Cause if I try I know that I can touch the sky
I put all my love and all my heart in it every time
If you think I would throw in the towel
You gon' be waiting a long time
Cause nigga I'm the man think it's time that you noticed
I'm the man with the plan I just gotta stay focused
Even when times get hard I never second that emotion
And I know who I am but it was nice for you to notice
If you don't know which way to go like that fork in the road
Just keep working on your craft and it's gon' lead you back home
Get off your ass ain't you a dad you got a bad to bring home
I gotta leave but I'll be back I know you sad when I'm gone
I just wanna pave a way create a lane you could be proud of
Something that's just nothing like my childhood
My parents did they best yes that's something I could attest
They tried to give me the world and I'ma give you the rest
Nigga I'm the man think it's time that you noticed
I'm the man with the plan I just gotta stay focused
Even when times get hard I never second that emotion
And I know who I am but it was nice for you to notice
