Feeling inside out
World is upside down
But I know my way around 

(Come on)
Chew me up
Spit me out
Cos I know how this ends

Death creeps in
Slowly then
All at once
Then your done

I'm only 25, I've got the rest of my life
I'm only 35, I've got the rest of my life
I'm only 45, I've got the rest of my life
I'm only 65, I've got the...

What's the fuss
What the F
Get me out of here

Holding on, but what for
Fear of hell or hope of reward
Just wanna do something
I'll be remembered for
Love real hard
and die a martyr

I'm only 25, I've got the rest of my life
I'm only 35, I've got the rest of my life
I'm only 45, I've got the rest of my life
I'm only 65, I've got the... 

WORLD IN MY HANDS

Mere Mortal

“why are you all about the business?”

Lyrics: 
Did you really think that 
you could keep this from me? 
I am highly doubting 
your sense of loyalty 

you played me like a fool 
and you have the audacity 
to blame me for it too. 
You made me feel so small
you made me shrink so weak 
thinking I should see a shrink 
once a week. 
Maybe she could tell me how to deal
with this situation. 
Fuck you in this predicament 
you abused my trust
I’m out of forgiveness
I was gullible, vulnerable
I have no witness 
only you 

Chorus 

why are you all about the business? 
why are you always in a rush to finish? Didn’t you say that you’re in it to win it? admit it, you didn’t 
the cash and the decimals got you scheming percentages dividends what’s the meaning? 

Did you really think that you could get away with this? I can’t lie I’m offended. 
I get no respect when you’re pulling this shit.

HUH?

"Illuminations"
Far away
Across the land
Rays of light
Taking my hand
From above
Shine down on our face
Luminate
And light up the day

Illuminations
Ga Ra Ah Na Da Ma Ah Sa
Ta Eh Ra Ga Ra Ah Na Da

Gather round
Our voices will ring
Hear the sound
As we start to sing
From the sky
A radiant glow
Sacred sight
Of glorious might

Illuminations
Ga Ra Ah Na Da Ma Ah Sa
Ta Eh Ra Ga Ra Ah Na Da
