Illusions

Powers (powers), spirits (sprits) and principalities
Govern, control and hold authorities
We think that, we have this, pow'r over our life
Convinced by, our idols, that we aren't even blind

Our life is not the way it seems
Our life is full of illusions
We lack the rights we think we own
Our power is full of illusions...

Deception, delusion and vain philosophies
Lift us, exalt us, into god-like vanities
The fallen, are falling headlong to the sky
The system, the structure, veiling man-made Babylonic pride

Our life is not the way it seems
Our life is full of illusions
We lack the rights we think we own
Our power is full of illusions...

Money, money, money makes the world go round! (World go round!)
Power, power, power keeps the world on world on top! (World world on top!)
Beauty, beauty, beauty makes this lie feel good! (Lie feel good!)
The hyp-o-crit-ic world as they killed God on tortured beams of wood!

His life was not the way it seemed
His life brings down our illusions
He gave up rights we know he owned
His power exposed our illusions...

His death was not the way it seemed
His death destroyed our illusions
He gave up rights we know he owned
His death exposed our illusions...

Our life is not the way it seems
Our life is full of illusions
We lack the rights we think we own
Our power is full of illusions...
