Logic - Just A Man lyrics

rate me

Some of the realest shit I ever wrote

Yeah, this is my vision

Written without second thought or revision

The type of shit that affect you like an oncoming collision

That just make you freeze, drop to your knees and beg ‘em please

Lord forgive me for gripping the semi now

When searching for God all I ever do is stare up

While Satan sending me women wearing nothing but they hair up

Got the condom on the dresser, I can’t wait to undress her

Would you think lesser of me if I did it?

‘Cause I get lonely, I’m human and boy, it’s been a minute

Fresh out the stage surrounded by women that wanna hit it

Or should I take the pussy just ‘cause I could get it?

Or do I want something that’s more committed?

Goddamn, it’s hard to admit it

As you focus on the little things the bigger ones will get you

So I minimize the negatives to see the bigger picture

I get richer while you fuckers hate

So keep it up and watch a young brother elevate

I’m black and white but racism I still cannot evade

I never understood the concept even to this day

You know we’re all the same in the eyes of a blade

‘Cause when men share blood it’s still the same shade

And I swear I’m just a man, homie

Flesh and blood, I’m just a man

But I don’t think they understand, homie

I ain’t perfect, I’m just a man

Yeah, y’all think I’m more than just a man

I contemplate on the daily if I survive and strive

To be the greatest lyricist, dead or alive

I gotta prevail, that’s my word like excel

Went from a small town in West deer park to double X L

Now we shopping at Louis V, back in the day it was Ross

They calling me the savior, hope they don’t give me the cross

Yeah, now that’s the realest shit you ever heard

Never in the streets but I was closer than the curb

Do you feel me? Whole world wanna kill me

Signed a deal but I’m still me

In 5 years will I still be?

Ever since I was a youngling this is all I ever wanted

Always kept it real while they perpetrated and fronted

I was in the studio when they was getting blunted

Always had my doubts but deep down I knew I run it

Sporting Armani like ménage a trois

That’s double breasted

A lot of time I’ve invested and never once arrested

Further nervous like when you getting tested

The game is over, saturated, completely infested

The greatest story ever told, realest song ever written

To hell with a plan B, motherfucker I ain’t kidding

I’m just tryina get this money, I’m just tryina get paid

That’s the type of mentality put careers in the grave

Fuck how much you made, what’s it worth if your memory fade?

Now I ain’t perfect, on occasion I’ve strayed

It’s been forever since I prayed

And I guess today is the day

So I step in the booth and treat that shit like a confessional

Thinking back as I reminisce, wondering does God even exist?

A man of faith but mentally I feel at risk

What you want from me? Where I’m supposed to go?

Seem like you never talk, tell me how I’m supposed to know

I’m just a man, I ain’t perfect, is this life even worth it?

It’s time to dig up the past, so fuck it

Less I loved it like my childhood

Leaving free like a child should

Remember the time I opened the bedroom door crack

And saw my daddy smoking more crack?

No food in my house, we just couldn’t afford that

Mama drinking, sleeping until 5

But she always seemed to get up whenever men arrive

Feeling alone at like 11

Segregated from the other kids like it was 1957

I’ve loved, I’ve hated, I’ve cried, I’ve died inside

I’m resurrected but don’t neglect that I’m modified

I’m stronger, faster, better than ever before

And everything I’ve been through can honestly assure

Yeah, I’m no less, no more

I’m just a man, homie

Flesh and blood, I’m just a man

But I don’t think they understand, homie

I ain’t perfect, I’m just a man

Y’all think I’m more than just a man
