Opened up this book of ones and zeroes in 3000 where the heroes took me to this lonely place
Peering through a telescope of time designed by brighter minds I try to tell my copy to my face
Twenty million lighted years between us Mars to Venus as I try to get this message out through space

Try to be kinder with peace undivided while living a life that will hopefully matter
Live for my brother and lift one another
This note to self I scream to myself

To be that man
Just be that man
Go be that man
So be that man

Sending through this portal lines of code straight to myself though not immortal hope to save me from disgrace
Nearing end of life on this strange planet hope my plan is firmly planted and our souls will be embraced
Wishing us a better life of loving hard and playing nice I pray this message gets to You someday

Try to be wiser and rise so much higher we’ll fight the good fight while avoiding disaster
Be good to mother don’t hide undercover
Don’t die on the shelf I plead to myself

To be that man
Just be that man
Go be that man
So be that man

Try to be kinder with peace undivided while living a life that will hopefully matter
Live for my brother and lift one another
Send this note to self I scream to myself

Try to be wiser and rise so much higher we’ll fight the good fight while avoiding disaster
Be good to mother don’t hide undercover
Don’t die on the shelf I plead to myself

To be that man
Just be that man
Go be that man
So be that man

And be that man
Must be that man
You be that man
So be that man
