Can you read the determination on my face
I'm as solid as the gravel now
And I kept gettin' on my feet after all
The times you knocked me down
Went back to see the place where I came from
And I began to understand my pride
From the brick streets, a northern factory town
Where Grandma's work improved my chances
Common man this is me
I'm not ashamed anymore to be
Here I am this is me
I'm glad you're uncomfortable near me
Never had nothin' never no one to care
Never had nothin'
Nothin' but the wind in my hair
Still I'm a millionaire
You see me standin' out on Fifth and Union
Right across from the abandoned Drive-In
The sun's gone down on the future here
The past won't leave my mind
Well, the rich boys gave up on ya
But the soul out here is much too strong
And I'll carry it with me for my whole life
The face of human dignity
Common man this is me
I'm not ashamed anymore to be
Here I am this is me
I'm glad you're uncomfortable near me
Yeahme
Common man this is me
I'm not ashamed anymore to be
Here I am this is me
I'm glad you're uncomfortable near me
Uncomfortable near me
I don't have to be the boy with the most cake
I don't have to be the boy with the most cake
I don't have to be the boy with the most cake
I don't have to be the boy with the most cake
Still I'm a millionaire
