The Illusion of Power Lyrics

[Verse 1: Tony Martin]
What is it that turns you on to the illusion of power?
This thing that grabs you by the heart and makes you want to tear things down
There is no reason why I should need all this power
But if you cross me now, I'm gonna tear your whole world down

[Chorus: Tony Martin, Martin & Ice-T]
Illusion of power
Things that I feel seem so real
Illusion of power

[Verse 2: Tony Martin]
I can't get the emotional thing straight in my head
Everything I love dies too soon or is already dead
Don't stand too close, I spit and breathe fire
Anything I've got now you cannot desire
You wanna be my friend, I promise you nothing
Nothing I can give you, nothing I can do for you
I'm being chased by the sins of my past and it's killing me now
Killing me now

[Chorus: Tony Martin, Martin & Ice-T]
Illusion of power
Things that I feel seem so real
Illusion of power
Illusion of power
It's already set, signed and sealed
Illusion of power

[Bridge 1: Ice-T]
Powerful, who are you fooling?
You're caught in a complex catacomb of your own inadequacies and pitiful weaknesses
Your souls secretes insecurity
So you live on the reflection side of the mirror
You're terrified of true power, you fear me

[Bridge 2: Tony Martin]
I can tell you stories of my shaded past
And I can drag you down into the depths of my soul

[Chorus: Tony Martin, Martin & Ice-T]
Illusion of power
Things that I feel seem so real
Illusion of power
Illusion of power
It's already set, signed and sealed
Illusion of power

[Outro: Tony Martin]
Why don't you come closer?
Promise a story I will tell, yeah
I'll save you from your dreams, yeah
Save you from your dreams

It's illusion
Just an illusion
Illusion
Just an illusion
