The Weeknd - A Lesser Man Lyrics

 "The Weeknd - A Lesser Man" is a song that portrays a sense of self-awareness and introspection. The lyrics suggest that the protagonist feels inadequate or lesser than what others perceive him to be. He acknowledges his flaws and portrays himself as a "deadbeat man" who doesn't know when to quit. Despite this, he emphasizes his desire to take control and reclaim what is rightfully his.

The song also explores themes of manipulation and power dynamics in relationships. The protagonist acknowledges the manipulative actions of his partner, who uses her charm and seduction to extract what she desires from others. He recognizes her as a top performer, but he urges her not to leave until she ensures that she is properly compensated for her efforts.

Overall, the song seems to convey a complex mix of self-reflection, vulnerability, and a desire to assert oneself in challenging situations. It reflects on the notions of perception, identity, and the often blurry lines between reality and façade.

The Weeknd - A Lesser Man Lyrics

What yOu don't even know

I'm a deadbeat man, never know when to fold

Spent a lot for your soul

You gon' make that back l'm gonna take what

I own

Far away from my home

In this hot **** town but my blood still cold

Better let them know

When you see them that you make sure they

pay you

Pay you in cash

I don't do favors

I don't do that

You don't want to see me

See me get mad

No matter how bad you, you think I am

I'm a lesser man, a lesser man, a lesser man

Than you think l am

You think you know but you have no idea

I'm a lesser man, you're the best of them

the rest of them

* ***

l'm a lesser man

Than you know

Show the world what I know

How you work that tongue to collect their

Souls

Seen you do it before

Make them fall in love, make them beg for

more and

You can put ona show, you're my one top star

You're my bottom girl and before you kiss

them and go

Don't leave until you make sure they pay you

Pay you in cash

I don't do favors

I don't do that

You don't want to see me

See me get mad

No matter how bad you, you think I am

'm a lesser man, a lesser man, a lesser man

Than you think l am

You think you know but you have no idea

I'm a lesser man, you're the best of them

**** the rest of them

I'm a lesser man, yeah and you know

'm a lesser man than you think l

A lesser man than you think I am

Yeah, and you know, oh, oh
