Verse 1:
I got my reasons
Explain away my actions
Does everything revolve?
To my selfish satisfaction
High above the crowd
Talking up a storm
No idea what’s ahead
But a crash is taking form

Chorus:
Power, pleasure
Lifted up in my mind
I know not only will it hurt me
But it could hurt a lot of mankind

[Repeat] ------

--- 2X

Verse 2:
When I think I stand
Is when I’m sure to fall
I’m living by the sword
And walking oh so tall
She said if I keep on
I’ll get chopped down to size
I got to take this good advice
To prevent my demise

Repeat Chorus

--- 2X

Verse 3:
To gratify the flesh
Is not what it’s all about
One can find happiness
In helping someone out
But this virtue is lacking
Got to kick it into gear
Stop doing everything I want
Help the neighbor that is near

Repeat Chorus 2X
