Don't have the vision of Spike Lee
Don't have the hand of Da Vinci
Don't have no wings so man

can fly like Michael Jordan
I'm just not that kind of guy


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.


I'm just a soul man (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


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


Don't have the walk of Neil Armstrong
Don't have the power of King Kong
Don't have Obama's smarts or

The will of Rosa Parks
Nor the courage of Mandela


I'm just a soul man (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
[x2]


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?


I'm just a soul man (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
