I tried it, I couldn't find it
Now I just wanna get back to me
Aw baby, hoo, hoo
Back into the man I used to be
I tried it, I couldn't find it
Now I just wanna get back to me
Aw baby, hoo, hoo
Back into the man I used to be
Things that I said I wouldn't do, I did 'em
Secrets below the surface 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, tryna find missing links
Like the men we used to be and are we supposed 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'll squeeze the ink out of 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
Aw baby, hoo, hoo
Back into the man I used to be
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
When rappers are acting like man tan
Can I be candid? I can't stand it
Rap bandit, got Kevin 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
I tried it, I couldn't find it
Now I just wanna get back to me
Aw baby, hoo, hoo
Back into the man I used to be
Back into the man I used to be
Back into the man I used to be
I tried it, I couldn't find it
Aw baby, hoo, hoo, hoo
Oops, wrong song, stop it, stop it
You know what?
I woke up in the mornin'
I took a trip to the corner store
That's when I heard my calling
But I'd never heard the voice of truth before
So I kept on walking
Pretended I didn't see
Walked by a window and my reflection said to me
You could try all the same
But you'll never know this mystery
There's no pilot on your plane
So you're not the man you used to be
Try all the game, but you'll never know this mystery
When your pilot has no plane
Said you're the man you used to be seen
Holler and you holla, you follow, you fall
You holler and you holla, follow, you fall
You holler and you holla, you follow, you fall
You holler and you holla, follow, you fall
You holler and you holla, you follow, you fall
You holler and you holla, follow, you fall
Yo, microphones get ripped holdin' us back
K dash rockin' it out, rockin' the coldest style
Making it up, go along singing my song
Woke up, in the early morn' didn't know what was going on
Whatever, I don't really know
Flows like an immaculate goat what up, whatever
Now I just wanna get back to me
Aw baby, hoo, hoo
Back into the man I used to be
I tried it, I couldn't find it
Now I just wanna get back to me
Aw baby, hoo, hoo
Back into the man I used to be
Things that I said I wouldn't do, I did 'em
Secrets below the surface 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
