[Intro 1]
[D][F#m][G][D][F#m]
[G][A]

[Verse 1]
So you're [Bm]the man,
and you've been told what that [F#]means. Now you need to [F#m]con tr[G]ol,[A]
To fit the social [Bm]role that's been issued
to [F#]you b[F#m]y our culture.[G][A]
So spread out[Bm], tradition bou[F#m]nd,
and find in [G]time you'll grow no [A]more.
Reverse that [Bm]way and you will [F#m]see the
true point [G]of thought before [D]speech.
[A]You are no

[Verse 2]
[G]better,
and she is no [Bm]less.[A][G][D]
[A]You're no born [G]leader,
and she is not your [Bm]bitch.
[A]We've

[Verse 3]
[G]got [D]to [G]wor[D]k t[Bm]o mak[G]e[A]
[Bm]a co[F#]mmunity of individu [F#m]als,
[G]But we can[A]'t build on what they made. We'[Bm]ve
got to make your [F#]own place [F#m]with a base of [G]truth.[A]
Base that por[Bm]trays equal [F#m]says,
with due re[G]spect and strength to break,
[A]Or cut down the [Bm]lines that falsely [F#m]divide one body from [G]another
and fuck the [D]pride.[A][G][Bm][A][G][D][A][G][Bm][A]
[G][D]

[Outro 1]
Respect.
