Proclamation

There's something happening
Can you feel it?
Something happening
Can you feel it?
Look into my eyes you'll see it
Look into my eyes you'll see it

I was born on a Sunday morning
Nary a notice or sign of warning
Unleashed like a beast astride the land
Doing the deeds that my father planned
It's cold in his shadow and there I shiver
Living his promise I won't deliver
I feel myself changing
Taking shape
A metamorphosis and a great escape

I'm gonna be my own man, own man
I'm gonna beeeee
I'm gonna be my own man, own man
Setting myself free

My own liberator
My emancipator
I'm becoming greater
Now's the time not later

There's something happening,
Can you you feel it?
Something happening
Can you feel it?
Follow me and I'll reveal it
It's time at last I can't conceal it

I was raised to disrespect
To never bow or genuflect
I was taught to stir the pot
To make others see things that were not

I was told I'd be defined
By pressing the buttons on weaker minds
And shown a way that we'd succeed
By sowing fear and anarchy

I'm gonna be my own man, own man
I gonna beeeee
I'm gonna be my own man, own man
Setting myself free

My own liberator
My emancipator
I'm becoming greater
Now's the time not later

Life is a game, I've played the villain
Safe in the shade I made a killing
Now I've decided to be the hero
Here at square one I start from zero

I'm gonna be my own man, own man
I'm gonna beeeee
I'm gonna be my own man, own man
Setting myself free
