[Intro (Ric Flair)]: "You people out there...the greatest fans in the world, deserve an opportunity - to see the best. Let's put two and two together. I gotta be the best of 'em all! Not just cut and dried - I'm the best! Whether you like it or not - you're looking at: the best looking man, the best dressed man...long limousines...jet airplanes...custom made clothes! Because I'm the World Heavyweight Champion. Y'all playing catch up ball...to the Nature Boy. i don't care where you are in life! Or where you rank! Let's face it: you're second best, no matter what you tell yourself. So, get used to it! You're looking at the man...Woo!"

[Verse One]: I wanna be the best, that no one ever was, the man who makes waves and cause a bunch of buzz.
Who you think this was? Who you think I am? The man with no power and the man with no jam?
I got a master plan that you bout to hear, when I say it, it’s gone, quick to disappear.
Better luck next year, call the S.O.S, grab a brand New Life and a vest for your chest.
Save yourself from the thunder and lightning, I’m not freighting, but the smile is whitening.
My style’s enlightening, good for the ears, raising up souls for you and your peers.
Only what I know, this is not for show, vivid with the words, so call me Van Gogh.
I’m ready to go, so don’t stop me, prepared for more, so I’m back like Rocky.

[Hook]: Standing in your mirror, closer than I appear, [you] see my shadow, then you know I’m near.
At your blind side like I’m ready to strike, it’s a new Dark Knight.
So, here’s the man (Here’s the man!), here’s the man (Here’s the man!), here’s the man (Here’s the man!), here’s the man (Here’s the man!)
Here’s the man (Here’s the man!), here’s the man (With the plan!), here’s the man (With the power!), here’s the man (With the jam!)

[Verse Two]: It’s been 3 years since the last drop, now I came back and y’all thought I stopped?
How could I ever? I would never ever, stop rhyming bout my life and being so clever.
Matured in my ways and the way I go about it, why you trying to listen if you ain’t really bout it.
Bout it, bout it, make you say “ungh”, the world in my hands, just second to none.
I drop bombs like we going to war, I drop rhymes just to settle the score.
Playing catch up ball just to see me fall, reaching for the top, but y’all gotta crawl.
Y’all ain’t touching my level, like Neville, better try and Use Me, but you better be careful.
I’m so special, low key a rebel, what’s that attack? Young, gifted and black.

[Hook]: Standing in your mirror, closer than I appear, [you] see my shadow, then you know I’m near.
At your blind side like I’m ready to strike, it’s a new Dark Knight.
So, here’s the man (Here’s the man!), here’s the man (Here’s the man!), here’s the man (Here’s the man!), here’s the man (Here’s the man!)
Here’s the man (Here’s the man!), here’s the man (With the plan!), here’s the man (With the power!), here’s the man (With the jam!)


[Verse Three]: Y’all just actors, lookin at yourself in the mirror backwards, can’t face the laughter.
I’m laughin’, I’m rollin’, y’all was busy trollin’, I was too busy just swagging and souling.
That’s too above you? I moved on up, hit my George and Weezy, just grooved on up.
My Family does matter, so I am Carl Winslow, I embrace it, y’all take the window.
Take the wheel, you better praise the lord, don’t mind me, I’m just carrying the load.
It sounds so foolish, it sounds so confusing, all I do is cruise it to the sound of music.
The music made me, the people did too, the haters just fueled me, and so did you.
Thank you for the song, making me understand, thank you for making the man.

[Hook]: Standing in your mirror, closer than I appear, [you] see my shadow, then you know I’m near.
At your blind side like I’m ready to strike, it’s a new Dark Knight.
So, here’s the man (Here’s the man!), here’s the man (Here’s the man!), here’s the man (Here’s the man!), here’s the man (Here’s the man!)
Here’s the man (Here’s the man!), here’s the man (With the plan!), here’s the man (With the power!), here’s the man (With the jam!)
