[Hook]
I'm a man, not a monster
Man, not a monster
Man, not a monster
[Verse 1]
Well I've been running 'round town with a West End man and a bag under my hand
Three weeks into the best-laid plan, aren't going too well and
She said, "Son, well I think you've changed"
I'm a man, not a monster, baby, don't you know who I am?
Well, this city built me and then I built this city
So, I'll be around 'til the men come down and batter in the door and
He's gon' beat these streets and bully the police and everybody know who I am
Well, I don't think that you've changed
I'm a man, not a monster, baby, don't you know who I am?
I'll be around town, 'til the city knocks me down
[Verse 2]
An alley man, a sound of a band and told in the mill and
She said, "See it in the street," I was at the Tees to make time for the firebrand
He said I don't know where I am
But I'm a man, not a monster, baby, don't you know who I am?
I'll be back in town, but the city knocked me down
[Verse 3]
As a sleeping soul holds suburban nights, I fight for the live and lie
So drinks in town, I move that around, run, stop, steady up
I've been running 'round town with a West End man and a bag under my hand
I say, three weeks into my best-laid plan, aren't going too well and
Ah, she said, "My son, you've changed"
Well, I'm a man, not a monster, baby, don't you know who I am?
I'll be around town, until the city knocks me down
[Hook]
'Cause I'm a man, not a monster
I'm a man, not a monster
I'm a man, not a monster
I'm a man, not a monster
I'm a man, not a monster
I'm a man, not a monster
I'm a man, not a monster
I'm a man, not a monster
(Man, not a monster)
(Man, not a monster)
