Simone White - I Am The Man lyrics

I used to be angry at the Man The one with the big frying pan Who takes all the meat and leaves nothing to eat For the poor with their outstretched hands But I am the Man I am the Man I am Yes I am the Man I am the Man I understand I used to be scared of the government Silencing voices of dissent But the voices of scared folk will never be heard Open your throat and sing like a bird Cos in my own government I am the president Yes it's my own government I represent Stop pointing the finger (at yourself) Look in the mirror and see how your enemy fell I used to think I was alone A motherless child far from home But the family I found is in everyone Open your heart it's time that you've come Home Is the house you build with your bones Yes home is the house you build with your bones
