I'm up and I'm allright
Push on with all my might
Got to find a way to get away today
Because I am the man
What?
I am the man
What?
Who's the man
Try to front like you want to try and understand
But you don't know man
Through the times that we shared
I know that you care
And I know you
And I'll go where you want to go cause I feel this way
And I care what you got to say cause I feel this way
So I stepped up and I said I just don't understand
He said just come and check it out man
I'm up and I feel fine
I won't drop till I get mine
I got to find a way to get away today
Because I am the man
What?
I am the man
What?
Who's the man?
Try to front like you want to try to understand
But you don't know man
Through the times that we shared
You know that I care
Cause I know you
Here we go
Hip hop nation, vibe affiliation
All that I need is mind emancipation
Got to find a way to get away
Got to find something to make me want to stay
Cause all that I see is jaded
Now I can't even see straight cause I'm faded
Stressed cause of strain and you know that I'm leaving today
And I care what you say, but I feel this wayDon't worry, I won't hurt U
I only want U 2 have some fun
I was dreamin' when I wrote this
Forgive me if it goes astray
But when I woke up this mornin'
Coulda sworn it was judgment day
The sky was all purple,
there were people runnin' everywhere
Tryin' 2 run from the destruction,
U know I didn't even care
'Cuz they say two thousand zero zero party over,
oops out of time
So tonight I'm gonna party like it's 1999
I was dreamin' when I wrote this
So sue me if I go 2 fast
But life is just a party, and parties weren't meant 2 last
War is all around us, my mind says prepare 2 fight
So if I gotta die I'm gonna listen 2 my body tonight
Yeah, they say two thousand zero zero party over,
oops out of time
So tonight I'm gonna party like it's 1999
Yeah
Lemme tell ya somethin'
If U didn't come 2 party,
don't bother knockin' on my door
I got a lion in my pocket,
and baby he's ready 2 roar
Yeah, everybody's got a bomb,
we could all die any day
But before I'll let that happen,
I'll dance my life away
Oh, they say two thousand zero zero party over,
oops out of time
We're runnin' outta time (Tonight I'm gonna)
So tonight we gonna (party like it's 1999)
