(Verse)
Some say we built pyramids with hieroglyphs
Said the man to the moon on a rocket
We harness the atom, alter molecules
See, scientifically, discovered all the roots

(Verse)
And even the king of the jungle is inferior
Standing in on their front feet but superior
We made up for this felt deep beneath the city
But even their name, no offense, God loves you

(Chorus)
A man (man)
That’s what I am (That’s what I am)
That’s what I am (That’s what I am)
A man (man)
I’m different (I’m different)
I’m different (I’m different)
A man (man)
That’s what I am (That’s what I am)
That’s what I am (That’s what I am)
I’m a man (man)
Our way will be nothing

(Verse)
There was some who fought for equality
There was really one who defied gravity
But there was so many who stood out from the rest
Like there’s one minority who became a president

(Verse)
We make fire feel stronger
And the greatest wall, walk the walk too
We brought you the king of pop and the king of rock n roll
What do we all have in common with the king of soul?

(Chorus)
A man (man)
That’s what I am (That’s what I am)
That’s what I am (That’s what I am)
A man (man)
I’m different (I’m different)
I’m different (I’m different)
A man (man)
That’s what I am (That’s what I am)
That’s what I am (That’s what I am)
I’m a man (man)
Our way will be nothing

(Bridge)
Because I’m different
That’s what I said to myself
They call me man
I said to myself
But I’m only a man
I said where do you?
A man
Where do you?
Man
Everywhere we go
People don’t stop and stare
And this put us off
And we ain’t going nowhere
Long as we keep on living
And breathing
We will, we will
We will all wait for something
An assignment

(Chorus)
A man (man)
That’s what I am (That’s what I am)
That’s what I am (That’s what I am)
A man (man)
I’m different (I’m different)
I’m different (I’m different)
A man (man)
That’s what I am (That’s what I am)
That’s what I am (That’s what I am)
I’m a man (man)
Our way will be nothing
Nothing
Without Him
