I believe in the evolution, the evolution of man
And I got no reason to think that it's all some divine plan
So we'll keep rising, rising to the top
And there ain't another species that can make us stop
Another tweak or two and we should have our plan
Do the research
My life, there's a purpose
It's to win cause I know that I deserve it
My life, there's a reason
It's to win or go home
Better find you a reason to win or go home
Just in time to see it fail
Living life, it's oh so frail
Dominate is what we'll do
You won't believe the lengths that we'll go to
To keep us rising, rising to the top
Cause there aren't another species who can make us stop
So we'll keep rising, rising through the air
I got one life to live and got no time to spare

Goddamn
I ain't the kind of man you seem to think I am
Goddamn
That isn't who I am
But all I hear you say as I won't listen to you anyway
All I hear you say is I won't reason with a pig
If it's paranoia I think I can relate
The profile can go for miles but I don't figure that's something to appreciate
And I wish that you could see yourself, demure and self-assured
How bout a moment of honesty? Or keep getting ignored
Hanging round in the gutter and oh so down
You can get out any time that you want, yet you choose to slum it until you get found
What you see isn't worth even a half of what you'll believe
Watch the show now you know that you missed the only chance you had t to leave
And stay away

I used to be such a fearless romantic taking what I want
But now I sit at home and just wait till you say come
But I know myself, yes I know myself, and I know I ain't nobody else
Yes I know myself, can control myself, cause it's better for my health
I'll take what I can get and I'll be waiting at your gate
And I don't need victory to celebrate
I used to be such a fearless romantic, but things are better now
I don't need no one to show me cause you've already shown me how
And I know myself, yes I know myself, and I know there ain't nobody else
Yes I know myself, can control myself, cause It's better for my health
I'll take what I can get and I'll be waiting at your gate
And I don't need victory to celebrate
There was a time when I would have sunk my teeth into you
But now I know that it's better not to treat you like food

I wanna see it, I wanna see it soon
I wanna see it and the burden of proof is on you
I wanna feel it, I wanna feel it, too
I want the spirit to move me like it's moving you
If it turns out that you're right
I'll give up my fight
Open my eyes and see the light
It's me who should be down on his knees
When it turns out you're wrong
Which we all knew all along
I won't gloat, I won't dance, I won't sing, I'll just do what comes naturally
I will be saved
