Curtains slowly curl upwards into the hollow darkness
Bright spotlights shine down upon the deserted stage
Everyone's staring from their seats below
Watching the shadow of a legend ascend the stage above
The world is just the backdrop of your stage
Every move you make makes its record on history's page
No one is a born Hollywood star
The road to heaven is still far
Continue rapping those lyrics
Screams pierce through the crowd
What's up coming next?
The crowd goes wild!
When you thought that, that special something would last
It suddenly disappears
It comes and goes
Leaving you behind so fast
So fast....
The present crosses over into the past
Slowly unveiling god's list of tasks
Tagged along on a rusty iron chain
Its all about the pain, nothing to do with gain
All your lifelong pride dissolves to pitiful shame
Sink it all in, nothings here to blame
And we keep singing the lyrics
When the sky comes down
And the candle goes out
Where do we go to breathe?
When the rain pours down
And the flood gates can't hold the tide
Where is the way home
Where is the way home
home....
