Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Don't have the vision of Spike Lee
Don't have the hand of Da Vinci
Don't have no wings, no man can fly like Michael Jordan
I'm just not that kind of guy
[Verse 2]
Don't have the wisdom of Gandhi
No muscles like Mohammed Ali
Don't have a gangster's heart or a platinum Rolls to park
I don't have no fancy things
[Verse 3]
I'm just a soulman, listen here, baby
I'm not a Superman, no not at all
It's just me and my dreams and despite what it seems
It ain't much but yet it's just enough
[Verse 4]
Don't have the charm of Denzel's smile
Don't have the cool of Cary Grant's style
Don't have the special mind or the genius of Einstein
I'm just not that kind of guy
[Verse 5]
Don't have the walk of Neil Armstrong
Don't have the power of King Kong
No, don't have Obama's smarts or the will of Rosa Parks
Nor the courage of Mandela
[Verse 6]
I'm just a soulman, listen here, baby
I'm not a Superman, not at all
It's just me and my dreams and despite what it seems
It ain't much but yet it's just enough
[Verse 7]
I'm just a soulman, listen here, baby
I'm not a Superman, no not at all
It's just me and my dreams and despite what it seems
It ain't much but yet that's just, yeah that's just enough
[Verse 8]
Well, I'd love to be just like one of them
Have something special
I know that I'll try the best I can
But what should I do in the end?
[Verse 9]
I'm just a soulman, listen here, baby
I'm not a Superman, no not at all (No, no)
It's just me and my dreams and despite what it seems
It ain't much but yet it's just enough (It is just enough)
[Verse 10]
I'm just a soulman, listen here, baby (No, no, no, no)
I'm not a Superman, no not at all
It's just me and my dreams, yeah, yeah
It ain't much but yet it's just enough, oh, oh
No, no, no, no, no, no, no
It's just me and my dreams
It ain't much but yet it's just enough, oh, oh
