De'Wayne Jackson – Top Man lyrics

Verse #1

In cologne getting smashed I can't feel my face
I never been outside the states who’s fucking with my brain
They said don’t get no big ideas it only causes pain
Saw a racist in the bar tried to snatch my chain
No matter how worse it get ya eyes won’t look away
No matter how worse it get ya eyes won’t look away
Don’t put ya hands in my hair I don’t know ya name
It’s sad cause some things in this world a never change

Hook #1

To be the man on the hill
To be the man on top of the hill
The place I go when I don't wanna feel
To be the man on top of the “hill”
To be the man on top of the hill

Verse #2

I was raised up in Spring ain’t been there in a minute
They asking where I been I got a newer vision
Been in la for three years the devil tried to kill me
Sometimes when I’m laying in bed I just get this feeling
Like somebody watching me in disguise
Feel like Somebody watching me in disguise
I’m addicted to my screen head full of lies
Forgot karma never forgets then it blew my mind ah

Hook #2

To be the man on the hill
To be the man on top of the hill
The place I go when I don't wanna feel
To be the man on top of the hill
To be the man on top of the hill

[Bridge]

But No pressure cause you got it all you hearing
The kid that never had a chance to ball
So if I slip that's our chance but I never fall
Pigeon-toed and all I really do it all my nigga
Against the odds or whatever in this space all alone
With blind faith and these notes that I write up in my phone
Don't ya miss when you had dreams of flying
Fuck these rules man dawg I'm done trying done crying

[Outro]

To be the man on the hill
To be the man on top of the hill
The place I go when I don't wanna feel
To be the man on top of the hill
To be the man on top of the hill
