Alpha Male Lyrics
(Verse #1) Honey, I'm home! Where's my dinner? And this place is a mess/ And less than adequate, marked with laziness and soap-opera watching Clean it top to bottom now or face the consequences Stop that sentence, I don't really want to hear your feedback Smack the taste out of your loud mouth now Sweetheart, the game is on and you just fouled out How about a little affection thrown in my direction honey? Yeah, I'm sorry for the way I yelled about the money that I lost Gambling last night, but you must be on the crack pipe If you think I'ma let a woman take that tone with me And I know they cut the phone, see? But I wasn't trying to hear it I didn't mean to break your face, I just wanted to break your spirit And your arm the night before, I thought we agreed that was an accident Now the neighbors called the cops on some old assault and battering And I'm a man of my word and all my words got 4-Letters The door is that way, but you'll never do any better than me This is my house, I'm the man, I rule with the hand of fear You don't like it? Get out! Now go get me another beer Did I make myself clear? Don't make me say it twice I worked a double shift last night and don't got time to play it nice As for the lipstick on my collar, well that's my business You're my wife and all that, but let's face it. You got your limits You're dependent on this bread winner 'cause you're barefoot and pregnant I'm a part of your life til I decide to make my exit...
(Hook#1) He's the alpha, the top of the pile, the leader of the pack You'll listen when he talks because he's got it like that Matter fact he rules with iron fist, gripping misfortune He learned to be a man from his father before him Yeah, he's the alpha, the first person in every universe Version 5.0 pack animal with blood thirst and stamina The root of family trees where so many have fallen He'll provide for your needs, but please proceed with caution The Alpha...
(Verse #2) Now I was called long ago to grow to be a man And show the ones before and after me so maybe they could understand And know the facts that with power, responsibility's attached And the appropriate response isn't always to react And attack the weakness of beautiful creatures 'cause we can't It's our duty to implant wisdom and patience in our stance And it's true that woman was made from man's rib, so oddly When you sin against your wife, you sin against your own body And an open fisted beatdown is never an option for mine For she was made in God's image, so I'm inclined to put her desires And needs before me daily and see my lady as a queen Her submission is a calling that isn't enforced by me Cause I'm free from a GQ/Maxim/Playboy establishment Christ is the man I strive to be like and that's no accident My dad implanted the fuel and the means that I found vital If your father was a deadbeat or absent, you can break the cycle Take the Bible and tradition and follow the map accordingly Spread the answers I've found around the world I'll firmly lead my household and display emotions openly And show my people what a real man's supposed to be...
(Hook #2) Cause I'm the Alpha, called and destined, the leader of the pack I'll listen when you talk because I've got it like that Matter fact, I'll protect you with my life because I love you And carry you on my back through everything we have to trudge through The Alpha, first person in every universe Version 6.0, sacrifice my body to the dirt I challenge Alpha Males to change so you can see A man standing there where a boy used to be The Alpha...
