You're The Man
*In spite of some of writings, I am NOT an arrogant or conceited man. On the contrary, I am very Blessed and have so much going for me, but still need to battle low self esteem and avoid a natural pessimistic and self deprecating attitude. Writing empowering poem/ songs is a therapy to boost me up when I get down. These songs are written for me, but I would be thrilled and honored if they had a similar effect on someone else's life!
*Entheos (N-tha-ose) is my Spiritual name which I've adopted (more accurately- ....which has adopted me). Entheos means "having God within" in ancient Greek.It's a big responsibility but for Heaven's Sake, I'll own that!!!
"The Man"- Aloe Blacc
I’m The Man- I’m The Man-I’m The Man!
I’m The Man- I’m The Man-I’m The Man!
---------------------------------------
*Radiating like an Angel, dangerous just like a Demon
Soul that's white as snow, gotta potty mouth just like a seaman
Hades couldn't handle me, I'm back again to take a stand
I'll deal with the Devil, y'all go join the Promised Land
Isn't it ironic, that I rock a Lamborghini Diablo
God given name Entheos, hermano por eso hablo
Deposit box like Fort Knox, owning 14 Swiss Banks
Palace up in Paradise, givin' back and givin' thanks
Creation is an oyster, I got the m*ther f*ckin' pearl
Honey, I'm the Blessed One, this is my m*ther f*ckin' world
I guess I am the Greatest, indisputable just like Jordan
Reminiscin’ havin’ nothin’, nothin’ now I ain’t affordin’
I’m Gettin’ too important, but chill out- I ain’t gonna die
I got immortality- the Good Lord must want me alive
I'm an ambitious go-getter
A winner pace setter
Philanthropic with the cheddar
Ain't no devil badder
Ain't no Angel better
-------------------------------------------
My Soul is tellin' me
My Soul keeps tellin' me
Somethin' in my Soul is tellin' me
"You're the Man, You're the Man, You're the Man
You're my Man, You're my Man, You're my Man"
YES- I- AM!!!
I'm the man, I'm the man, I'm the man
-------------------------------------
I've become all things- I am everything to all my brothers
I've gotten their respect- now can we please make my reach bigger?
Blessed beyond all measure, Dear God, so little still remains
I give more than I get these days, because it’s right- not for acclaim
Help children in the schoolyard, broken families- so hard
Help survivors left by cancer- widows left- lives scarred
And....
***(God) "Welcome son to the inferno, fire not only for the sinners
Fire that also purifies, fire that also forges Winners
White flames, blue flames, Faith led you through flames
The thin skinned all incinerated- they can't believe you face the same
7 billion stories, half of them are naked
Really, irony is, the other half won't make it
Entheos you got beef, Praise my name you proved them wrong,
They thought you became disabled- I used that to make you strong”***
My whole world crumbled yesterday- then I asked for everything
The Lord Blessed me in every way, a King that can do Anything
Haters doubt I'm truly King- though no doubt I've become the Man
I am truly NOT The Lord- tho no doubt I've become His Hands
----------------------------------
My Soul is tellin' me
My Soul keeps tellin' me
Somethin' in my Soul is tellin' me
"You're the Man, You're the Man, You're the Man
You're my Man, You're my Man, You're my Man"
YES- I- AM!!!
I'm the man, I'm the man, I'm the man
===================
** "I don’t know Angelica. What is it about this guy?
If he’s real I’m tellin’ ya. Gonna see me make him mine" **
** "Hello Joy, I'm Daniel. What is it that makes you smile?
Are you what I'm missing? Won't you roll with me a while?
I am "God Within". I've got everything except for you
You bring me your namesake. Just by doing how you do" **
Lovin' Joy in our Gondola, while some other cats are rowing
She gives me an Aura, gives birth to Hope that I'm bestowing
We will show the whole world, that Love is how to Live
We will make the world feel, they're Getting when they Give
Sin is still prevalent, but makes no sense like living right
Like putting on blinders, when you got 20/20 sight
Like blowing out the candles, then b*tchin' that it isn’t light
Or contradicting Radiance to stumble back into the night
Truly I'm a servant, but Jehovah is the King of Kings
And when I conquered Hades, I became the King of Things
Accosted by Satan, facing Hell, I woulda' took my life
But my Savior said "Entheos, We gon' spread my light”
Jesus lives Within, got me knowin' I'm the champion
Now this sh*t's in focus- I don't need that Ritalin
Entheos
I can bring you what dreams are made of
The Light shining through me
“God Within”- Entheos
I think it’s time that you ALL see
The GLORY inside me
“God Within”- Entheos
Entheos
Entheos…..
