I Am Man

I am Man I am man Look at me I spew out words, and do great deeds I am royal I am king Respect me Kiss my ring I am man I am the anotomy of war I seek no less I ask for more See my big ole' gun? I feel so alive when on the run I'm talking to you Do you hear me Son? I admire women I respect none I stand tall I am above I make it known I am man I am king Respect me Kiss my ring I am man Since day one I've taken land Put laws into place I wrote the scriptures I am religion I have sailed sea to shining sea In a man-made vessel I've had many slaves To do the work I've thought unfit I am royal Purple robe, and wand in hand I am science Man-made magic I seek a higher knowledge To the existence of my being I know all I own all The moon, stars, and my planet The pyramids I built My eyes are all seeing I am man I am royal I am king Kiss my ring
