Control is a 2007 black-and-white biographical film about Joy Division singer Ian Curtis. Matt Greenhalgh wrote the screenplay based on the book Touching from a Distance, written by Curtis' widow Deborah who co-produced the film. Directed by Anton Corbijn, Control stars Sam Riley as Ian, Samantha Morton as Deborah, and Alexandra Maria Lara as Annik Honoré. It also stars James Anthony Pearson, Joe Anderson, and Harry Treadaway as Joy Division members Bernard Sumner, Peter Hook, and Stephen Morris, respectively, as well as Toby Kebbell as band manager Rob Gretton and Craig Parkinson as Factory Records head Tony Wilson.
The film follows Ian Curtis' life from 1973 to 1980, focusing on his marriage to Deborah, the formation and rise of Joy Division, his struggle with epilepsy, and his extramarital affair with Annik, culminating in his May 1980 suicide. The film's title comes from the Joy Division song "She's Lost Control".
Control premiered at the Cannes Film Festival on 17 May 2007 where it won several awards including the Director's Fortnight, the CICAE Art & Essai prize for best film, the Regards Jeunes Prize for best first/second directed feature film, and the Europa Cinemas Label prize for best European film in the sidebar. It went on to win five British Independent Film Awards including Best Film, Best Director for Corbijn, Most Promising Newcomer for Riley, and Best Supporting Actor for Kebbell. It was named Best Film at the 2007 Evening Standard British Film Awards, and Greenhalgh was given the Carl Foreman award for outstanding achievement in his first feature film at the 61st British Academy Film Awards.

BACK
Verse 1:
I should’ve known, that I’m nothing on my own
Still I’m prone, to learn things, the hard way
But if I’ve shown, a recent change in tone
It’s cause I’m starting to see, there’s no way I can do this alone
Chorus:
The whole world’s getting heavy to hold
So I’m letting go
Such a rough universe getting old
So I’m giving up control
It’s clear to me who You want me to be
And now I know, I’m ready to see myself go
So You can take control
Verse 2:
Take control, come captivate my soul
I wanna know, what life is lived like Your way
I’m letting go, You’re who I want to follow
Cause I’m starting to see, You’re the only hope I have for tomorrow
Chorus:
The whole world’s getting heavy to hold
So I’m letting go
Such a rough universe getting old
So I’m giving up control
It’s clear to me who You want me to be
And now I know, I’m ready to see myself go
So You can take control
Bridge 1:
All along I’ve been, looking at this wall
You’re showing me now I can see that I am weak but You are strong
Yeah when I’m weak You are strong
And I need Your strength so I can carry on
Chorus:
This world’s getting heavy to hold
So I’m letting go
Such a rough universe getting old
So I’m giving up control
And now I know, I’m ready to see myself go
Because I know...
Bridge 2:
I can’t hold on, I’m not that strong
I’ve tried it now, for much too long
I think it’s time, to give up so...
V1) I step up in the club, lookin kinda mysterious.
Me and my girls hit the bar; time to get delirious.
Vb) I ain't easy or sleazy; aint freaky; but don't tease me cuz you know no other girls

In the mood for causing damage.{whoa}

Until I should die, until I should break
Not a god, not a devil my soul shall take
If I should lie to betray myself
Then I would damn myself, and my soul forsake
I don't want fifteen minutes want a whole lot more
Don't want to suffer the fools and the spoils of war
I don't want fifteen minutes, or a reason why
I want a stainless steel road stretching off to the sky
I don't need sentiment, want, or hate on my mind
No crimes of passion or obsessions in kind
No walls, restraints, or momentary thrill
No blood on my hands, no time to kill
I want more body, I want more soul
Make the switch to automatic, I want control
I want control
If I should give in, if I should turn away
Not a god, not a devil my soul could save
I want more body, I want more soul
Make the switch to automatic, I want control
I could fly to space, i would get away
Even sell my soul woudn't be afraid
I could cut my arm just to see it bleed
Maybe shoot my mother just to hear her scream
Who will help me find away
Who will take control...
Well I could jump of buildings you would see me fly
I could start a war just to see them die
I could bash my head against wall
While I walk the edge just to try and fall
I could scream out loud bet you wouldn't mind
And even run away wouldn't trun back time
Help me if you can, why don't you just try
help me make up my mind
On your knees before the mighty them, receive communion once again,
Obey and follow strict laws to the letter,
Do as you're told and life will be better,
Go with the flow, avoid the strife, let unknown powers rule your life,
A box of glass dictates your death stolen minds innocence last breath.
On your knees pray to the one you appease.
Whatever happened to the good old days no mental smokescreen
subliminal haze,
Corporate society prints out your thoughts spirituality sold and
bought.
Now your life is all dictated, all you stood for, all you hated,
Establishment prevails again on your knees before the mighty them.
Look in my eyes and you will find,
Another way to get through your life,
Stare at my face, make up your mind,
And you will find love at first sight,
Connect your soul now get online,
Mind control taking your life.
Try not to look Ôcause you might turn to stone,
How much time do you really think on your own?
Just trying to be yourself don't wanna be like no one else,
It was something that was once pure and the truth was meant to endure,
I love the way you look at me
I feel the pain you place inside
You lock me up inside ya dirty cage
While I'm alone inside my mind
I like to teach you all the rules
I get to see them set in stone
I like it when you chain me to the bed
Then you see what's never shown
I need to feel you
You need to feel me
I can't control you
You're not the one for me, no
I can't control you
You can't control me
I need to feel you
So why's it even?
I love the way you break my skin
I feel the hate you place inside
I need to get your voice out of my head
'Cause I'm the guy you'll never find
I think you know all of the rules
There's no expressions on your face
I hope that some day you will let me go
Release me from my dirty cage
I need to feel you
You need to feel me
I can't control you
You're not the one for me, no
I can't control you
You can't control me
An' I need to feel you
So why's it even, you and me
I love the way you look at me
I love the way you smack my ass
I love the dirty things you do
I have control of you
I love the way you look at me
I love the way you smack my ass
I love the dirty things you do
I have control of you
I love the way you look at me
I love the way you smack my ass
I love the dirty things you do
An' I have control of you
I love the way you look at me
I love the way you smack my ass
I love the dirty things you do
I have control of you
I need to feel you
You need to feel me
I can't control you
You're not the one for me, no
I can't control you
You can't control me
I need to feel you
So why's it even you and me
You're not the one for me, no
You're not the one for me, no
You're not the one for me, no
In the morning light
You're gone far away
Never knew that leaving was so easy to do
And time goes by
So slow, hours are like days
Out of time, out of place
I lose control
I lose it all
All to you
Take control
Take it all
Close to you
In the dead of night
I can't see, can't find you anywhere
What am I supposed to do
When you got no one to love
And you're cold, so cold
Will you know your way back
I lose control
I lose it all
All to you
Take control
Take it all
Close to you
I lose control
I lose it all
All to you
Take control
Take it all
I gotta give up to quiet
The storm that rages inside
The way that I hid my damage pride
You gave me away
And I've had enough
I imagine the words I say to you
I'm finding strength to follow it through
I'm ready to change
[Chorus]
I'm letting go, I'm letting go
We're only friends, We're only friends
Tonight we'll let the music free our soul
So let it show, So let it show
We can't pretend, we can't pretend
We only find ourselves by loosing all
Control (x8)
I'm opening up
Show me a sign I can't relieve
These crazy emotions flow through me
I'm gonna explode
You take me away
And what is my ordinary life
I wont be afraid of what we might find a love I can hold
[Chorus]
I'm letting go, I'm letting go
We're only friends, We're only friends
Tonight we'll let the music free our soul
So let it show, So let it show
We can't pretend, we can't pretend
We only find ourselves by loosing all
Control
Nothing ventured nothing gained
New horizon ready to paint
With every breath you take me away
[Chorus]
I'm letting go, I'm letting go
We're only friends, We're only friends
Tonight we'll let the music free our soul
So let it show, So let it show
We can't pretend, we can't pretend
We only find ourselves by loosing all
Same old trouble's got me one more time
And I swore I'd never
I know I swore I'd never
But I couldn't do it
Couldn't stay away
The little boy inside me
Always wants to go on t and play
A vein of fortune
I'm still alive
1 know someone watches over me
As 1 throw the dice
I've tried to change
Do me some good
Probably help myself
If I r moved from this neighborhood
But that's what I know about control
And it shows
OK I guess, it's time for the leaving
I know just hurry quick before I change my mind
Oh well I tried, But it's not a problem
just run out of road here
And run out of time
Set off by a lover
Drinking or a friend
Still it’s about living
And knowing when to say when
A simple choice
Knowing right from wrong
‘Specially if you want to have and to hold
More than words to a song
And that's what I've learned about control
And I know
OK I guess, it's time for the leaving
I know, just hurry quick before I change my mind
Oh well I tried, but it's not a problem
just run out of road here
And run out of time
Run out of road here
[Intro]
I'mma take my time
All I need is 30 seconds, man
30 seconds to you, but it could change my life
I'll tell you anything, man
I'm a Brooklyn nigga
Hey, yo Kendrick
Good looking on that Summer Jam move
But you ain't king of shit
[Verse 1]
Tell Kendrick and TDE they need to lay off the PCP
Far from the king, this is the city of BDP
You'll never be a real west coast artist like Eazy E
You a fucking joke, we laugh at you like he he he
Y'all probably stick dildoes in each other like Stevie G
I mean Stevie J on that sex tape with Eve
Little Sean, Big Sean, let me see ID
Before you rap why you always say B.I.G.?
You ain't Biggie, you can D-I-E
Every time I hear you you're getting cornier like your E-Y-E
Back when we was slaves they used to cut off our balls
Then stuffed 'em in our mouths, kept us away from the girls
Modern day slavery, now they put us in jail
A bunch of men in cells away from the females
This wasn't done just because the color of skin
This was done cause they never wanted us to be men
Kendrick, Kanye, Drake, they all act feminine
Wear a lot of clothes you usually see women in
So the mainstream America finds it interesting
Push 'em up to the forefront, they positioning
You never made it cause you bringing lyrics in
Singing like a lady, you get away with murder, you George Zimmerman
What I'm stating is facts, grams
You only blew up cause you contributed to the feminization of the black man
Woves on you, time to get rid of these crap rappers
Wolfpack on your back, you really a backpacker
Kendrick Lamar – where's your last name rap bastard?
You got two first names, your mama was ass backwards
Always make gun sounds in your songs like ”dew dew dew”
Sounds like a gun out of Star Wars: R2D2
You gassed up, you thought you could just creep upon
The MTV interview that TI was freaking on
You tried to hug her, she pushed off like ”keep your arm”
I've seen that footage when you got curved by Nia Long
Good kid, mad city – you know nothing about the trap
On your album cover you sat on another man's lap
They looked like the Supreme's, you was Diana Ross
Only person in the flip with no shirt – damn it boss
But when they molest you did you have your pamper off?
Baby bottle right there on the table, that right there was yours
A Muslim who eat pork, that's not peace
Bust your chopper's head off and put it to the east
King of New York, why you ain't say you the king of LA?
You from Compton, scared to death from them ese's
Real Bloods, real Crips – MS-13′s
Mexican Mafia, what about them boys from Queens?
They gon' bust and pull it hard right on Southern Boulevard
Staten Island catch a homo, get thrown off the Verrazano
Bronx lay your pussy down, do more than just Boogie Down
Harlem they just flossin', dawg, get their Bumpy Johnsonn off
You know about Brooklyn, they gon' bang my G
And they only let you live cause you came with me
Jay Z co-signed you, you was given the torch
Now you think you Big Meech, you must listen to Ross
Catch you slipping in the city, no permission to floss
Kiss your jewelry goodbye, put your lips on your cross
I represent the lowlives, do the shit for New York
That's why the little man on my shirt sit on the horse
This rap shit gon' be the death of me, I'm driven with force
I'd rather die with a victory than live with a loss
That little bitch you fucking told me, why she missing your calls
She said your dick is so little that you piss on your balls
Man, your shit sound bougy, I'm loading shots in the Uzi
No fingerprints, I'll wipe 'em down like Lil' Boosie
He think it's all good cause Biggie made Juicy
But he should listen to ”Who Shot Ya?”, we bang toolies
Even back then we had hammers under them Coogis
Goonies in front of the corner stores smoking them loosies
Strip you to your socks, I bet you we got a pussy
My bullets hit em' dead in his cooty come out his booty
'Bout to make a movie on roolie, we keep it Gucci
This line is metaphysical
And on the one side, on the one side
The bad have lived in wickedness
And on the other side, on the other side
The good have lived in arrongance
And there's a steep slope
With a short rope
This line is metaphysical
And there's a steady flow
Moving to and fro
Oh, look you earned your wings
Are you an angel, now
Or a vulure
Constantly hovering over
Waiting for the big mistake
Oh, my God, what have I done?
Oh, my God, what have I done?
Wouldn't you love to be
On the cover of a magazine?
Healthy skin, perfect teeth
Designed to hide what lies beneath
I feel the darkness growing stronger
As you cram light down my throat
How does that work out for you
In your holy quest to be above reproach?
Hoy se casa mi amor no recuerda mi nombre ni lo que nosamarmos se ha olvidado quien soy las promesas de amor y lo que nos juramos solo en suenos quedaron el fracaso trunfo hoy se casa mi amor y tengo el alma herida de blanco va vestida que dios me la bendiga y le de lo mejor

BACK
It takes heart to forgive
Takes a soul to forget
Takes up all of your time
You're going nowhere fast
Gotta get over yourself
And bury the dead
Now if you make a guess
You know you're luck won't last
You find that lies don't lie
And the past won't rest
Makes you get down on your knees
And say: Off with the head
You gotta throw it away
You gotta throw it away
It's getting out of control
It's getting out of control
It's getting out of control
It's getting out of control
It's getting out of control
It's getting out of

Takes a soul to forget

You're going nowhere fast
Gotta get over yourself
And bury the dead

Before you sink and drown
It's only in your mind but

Dime como esta ella
te pregunta por mí?
dime que es lo que ase
si se acuerda de mí
francamente mi amigo
ella ya t olvido
pues la e visto con otro
y ese si la lleno
pero que estas diciendo
dime que no es verdad
dime que esto es un sueño
que no es realidad
dime como paso
ella se enamoro
el día que te fuiste
con otro te engaño
por que me fallo
ella me aseguro
que no eras su hombre
que contigo jugo
dime como paso
ella se enamoro
el día que te fuiste
con otro te engaño
por que me fallo
ella me aseguro
que no eras su hombre
que contigo jugo
francamente mi amigo
te diré la verdad
ella siempre te quiso
te lo puedo jurar
perdona mi amigo
ella no te engaño
pero por que la amo
el que te engaño
fui yo
It's not the way I go
It's not the way I go
Noone here hears me
I'm sick of people knowing me
Life's confusing me
There's so much I don't see
something's controlling me
It's no way to live
I haven't got a thing to give
And those signs trade off
I'm a line from loud to soft
For what I have to say
I wanted to build a stage
I wanted to feel this way
All this things are real
I don't know my own field
You will prove me wrong
I don't know one
I see now what I've got
It reveals just what is is not
Someday I'll take it away
There's nothing for me anyway
Love don't choose me
wide don't see a thing
What I'm saying is now
I don't know what it's about
I wander through the dawn
so much goes on
Who will make me run
I admit I might be wrong
These letters shelter me now
I have seen my future,
Not much there to see.
Anger and betrayal,
Like it used to be.
I have lived my past,
Joyful ain't not the word.
Agony and wounds,
Like it always is.
Have you seen my death?
A pleasant thing to watch.
Watch me as I cum.
Pure black disease
I have crossed an ocean,
Of misery and blood.
Soulless fucking creatures,
Drowning there with me.
Oh I loath you, humanity.
You're nothing worth to me,
Cause I have seen your future
And I will not shed a tear.
You bled for your faith,
Now bleed for your lies.
Cause I have seen your future.
Millions of your people,
Stuck inside
A world inside my head
A place where I think too much
A place where no one can touch
My God forsaken fear
And though I don't pray enough I want to
I want to thank you for the tears I've cried
And hope you gave to me
I want to show you what I've kept inside
That takes control of me
Thought somtimes
I was left behind
Alone here all by myself
Forced to look at myself
I never will believe
Things they say to me
Line up the bottles to complete the grief I've held on to for so long
Set you heart at a pace no one could follow
Until it's right in the face no one would swallow
We the subtle damned, refuse to follow
And we are determined to control
So many hours in the day in which you'll suffer
The saviour you delegate just basks in power
We the subtle damned, refuse to follow
And we are determined to control
We've lost it all
We breed contempt
With years to go a wealth of debt
A simple retreat
[Intro: Big Sean]
I look up
Yeah and I take my time
I’mma take my time, woah
Power moves only
[Verse 1: Big Sean]
Boy I’m ’bout my business on business
I drink liquor on liquor
I had women on women
Yeah that’s bunk bed bitches
I’ve done lived more than an eighty year old man still kickin’
Cause they live for some moments, and I live for a livin’
But this for the girls that barely let me get to first base
On some ground ball shit
Cause now I run my city on some town hall shit
They prayin’ on my motherfuckin’ downfall bitch like a drought but
You gon’ get this rain like it’s May weather
G.O.O.D. Music, Ye weather
Champagne just tastes better
They told me I never boy, never say never
Swear flow special like an infant’s first steps
I got paid to reverse debts
Then I finally found a girl that reverse stress
So now I’m talkin’ to the reaper to reverse death
So I can kick it with my granddad, take him for a ride
Show him I made somethin’ out myself and not just tried
Show him the house I bought the fam, let him tour inside
No matter how far ahead I get, I always feel behind
In my mind, but fuck tryin’ and not doin’
Cause not doin’ is somethin’ a nigga not doin’
I said fuck tryin’ and not doin’
Cause not doin’ is somethin’ a nigga not doin’
I grew up to Em, B.I.G., and Pac bitch, and got ruined
So until I got the same crib B.I.G. had in that Juicy vid
I can’t motherfuckin’ stop movin’
Go against me, you won’t stop losin’
From the city where every month is May-
Day at home, spray your dome
Niggas get sprayed up like AK was cologne for a paycheck or loan
Yeah I know that shit ain’t fair
They say that Detroit ain’t got a chance, we ain’t even got a mayor
You write your name with a Sharpie, I write mine in stone
I knew that the world was for the taking and it wouldn’t take long
We on, tryna be better than everybody that’s better than everybody
Rep Detroit, everybody, Detroit versus everybody
I’m so fuckin’ first class I could spit up on every pilot
The city’s my Metropolis, feel it, it’s metabolic
And I’m over niggas sayin’ they’re the hottest niggas
Then run to the hottest niggas just to stay hot
I’m one of the hottest because I flame drop
Drop fire, and not because I’m name droppin’
Hall of Fame droppin’
And I ain’t takin’ shit from nobody unless they’re OG’s
Cause that ain’t the way of an OG
So I GO collect more G’s, every dollar
Never changed though, I’m just the new version of old me
Forever hot headed but never got cold feet
Got up in the game won’t look back at my old seats
Clique so deep we take up the whole street
I need a bitch so bad that she take up my whole week, Sean Don
[Bridge: Kendrick Lamar]
Miscellaneous minds are never explainin’ their minds
Devilish grin for my alias aliens to respond
Peddlin’ sin, thinkin’ maybe when you get old you realize
I’m not gonna fold or demise
(I don’t smoke crack, motherfucker I sell it!)
Bitch, everything I rap is a quarter piece to your melon
So if you have a relapse, just relax and pop in my disc
Don’t pop me no fucking pill, I’mma a pop you and give you this
[Verse 2: Kendrick Lamar]
Tell Flex to drop a bomb on this shit
So many bombs, ring the alarm like Vietnam in this shit
So many bombs, make Farrakhan think Saddam in this bitch
One at a time, I line ‘em up and bomb on they mom
While she watchin’ the kids
I’m in a destruction mode if the gold exists
I’m important like the pope, I’m a muslim on pork
I’m Makaveli’s offspring, I’m the king of New York
King of the Coast, one hand, I juggle them both
The juggernaut’s all in your jugular, you take me for jokes
Live in the basement, church pews and funeral faces
Cartier bracelets for my women friends I’m in Vegas
Who the fuck y’all thought it’s supposed to be?
If Phil Jackson came back, still no coachin’ me
I’m uncoachable, I’m unsociable
Fuck y’all clubs, fuck y’all pictures
Your Instagram can gobble these nuts
Gobble dick up ’til you hiccup, my big homie Kurupt
This the same flow that put the rap game on a crutch
I’ve seen niggas transform like villain Decepticons
Mollies’ll prolly turn these niggas to fuckin’ Lindsay Lohan
A bunch of rich ass white girls lookin’ for parties
Playin with Barbies, wreck the Porsche before you give ‘em the car key
Judgement to the monarchy, blessings to Paul McCartney
You called me a black Beatle, I’m either that or a Marley
(I don’t smoke crack motherfucker I sell it)
I’m dressed in all black, this is not for the fan of Elvis
I’m aimin’ straight for your pelvis, you can’t stomach me
You plan on stumpin’ me?
Bitch I’ve been jumped before you put a gun on me
Bitch I put one on yours, I’m Sean Connery
James Bonding with none of you niggas
Climbing 100 mil in front of me
And I’m gonna get it even if you’re in the way
And if you’re in it, better run for Pete’s sake
I heard the barbershops be in great debates all the time
Bout who’s the best MC? Kendrick, Jigga and Nas
Eminem, Andre 3000, the rest of y’all
New niggas just new niggas, don’t get involved
And I ain’t rockin no more designer shit
White T’s and Nike Cortez, this is red Corvettes anonymous
I’m usually homeboys with the same niggas I’m rhymin’ wit
But this is hip hop and them niggas should know what time it is
And that goes for Jermaine Cole, Big KRIT, Wale
Pusha T, Meek Millz, A$AP Rocky, Drake
Big Sean, Jay Electron’, Tyler, Mac Miller
I got love for you all but I’m tryna murder you niggas
Tryna make sure your core fans never heard of you niggas
They dont wanna hear not one more noun or verb from you niggas
What is competition? I’m tryna raise the bar high
Who tryna jump and get it? You better off tryna skydive
Out the exit window of 5 G5’s with 5 grand
With your granddad as the pilot he drunk as fuck tryna land
With the hand full of arthritis and popping prosthetic leg
Bumpin Pac in the cockpit so the shit that pops in his head
Is an option of violence, someone heard the stewardess said
That your parachute is a latex condom hooked to a dread
[Verse 3: Jay Electronica]
You could check my name on the books
I Earth, Wind, and Fire’d the verse, then rained on the hook
The legend of Dorothy Flowers proclaimed from the roof
The tale of magnificent king who came from the nooks
Of the wild magnolia, mother of many soldiers
We live by every single word she ever told us
Watch over your shoulders
And keep a tin of beans for when the weather turns the coldest
The Lord is our shepherd, so our cup runneth over
Put your trust in the Lord but tether your Chevy Nova
I’m spittin’ this shit for closure
And God is my witness, so you could get it from Hova
For all you magicians that’s fidgeting with the cobra
I’m silent as a rock, ‘cause I came from a rock
That’s why I came with a rock, then signed my name on the Roc
Draw a line around some Earth, then put my name on the plot
Cause I endured a lot of pain for everything that I got
The eyelashes like umbrellas when it rains from the heart
And the tissue is like an angel kissin you in the dark
You go from blind sight to hindsight, passion of the Christ
Right, to baskin’ in the limelight, it take time to get your mind right
Jay Electricity, PBS mysteries
In a lofty place, tangling with Satan over history
You can’t say shit to me – Alhamdulillah

There is a feeling, in us all
This won't control us forever more
Break from this purpose, rise inside
Trust what you see in these eyes
I can't control this by myself
There's no erasing lies
There is a one that slowly
Bare to believe, that's all I have of me
Fight for your freedom, always strive
Ask me the question
You might not get the answer you wanna hear
You can predict my fortune
I will go where I want to, but not for you, my dear
Chorus:
I'm not tryin' to keep you happy
I'm not tryin' at all
If you think that I'm changin' for you
Then you're wrong
Don't you know that I'm in control
I'm in control
In conversation
You know I gotta big reputation
You wanna see
You know I'm like a bottle of wine
A case of beer
Everybody's breathing in each other's air
And in my style
I call the shots
And that's what I'm talking about
Chorus
Please listen to me
I'm my own worst enemy
And I'm sick and tired of breaking down
In the end you'll see
That I'm not gonna change
I'm not gonna change no
No matter what you do
No matter what you say
I'm not gonna change no
No matter what you think
I'm gonna get my way
I'm not gonna change no
No matter what you do
No matter what you say
I'm not gonna change no
No matter what you think
I'm gonna get my way
Featuring: Gary Go
I've been trying to breakout of the breakdown
Hoping to find a miracle in the meltdown
All the loving chaos that I'm surround
I dance dance to take me off the ground ground.
I've been closing my eyes so I can see you
trying to make every other lover be you
Hoping that my fantasies will come true
I dance dance and pray that some of them do.
(Chorus)
Hey-yeah, lift my emotion
Tonight, my heart is open
Let go, there's no confusion
Control is an illusion.
Control is an illusion.
Woo-ooo-oo-oo.
Control is an illusion.
I can't own ya love,
I can't own your love,
I gotta let it go in the night sky
When I look above
When I look above
I see it shining; I'll feel so aliiiiive.
Ready to let love back into my soul.
In the beauty, in the music, it's time to lose control of control.
(Chorus 2x)
Control, control.
And in our ignorance we let them take control
And in their wisdom they decreed that we should bow
Their grips extending to encompass all the world
The cages open to accomodate the crowd
[Chorus:]
When we put our lives into their hands
We put our hands into their chains
Refuse to aid them, refuse to hold their gun
if I could find a reason
I would hold onto you
but I release, I revoke
I don't' need you
if you could open up your eyes to see
every night you're out cutting yourself,
your daughter bleeds
and I'll go, alone
and I'll go, alone
all my life I
I wanted to tell you
wanted to tell you more
all these nights I've
told myself that
you were the only one
who could change this wrong into right
who could make this black into white
if you don't like the way I'm living today
I'll keep it in mind
as I casually dismiss all you say
you don't listen,
you just preach away
shut my eyes, grit my teeth
while you piss in my face
and I'll go, alone
and I'll go, alone
all my life I
I wanted to tell you
wanted to tell you more
all these nights I've
told myself that
you were the only one
I don't care about it
I don't mind
I've seen you through
a million times
I, I lose
control
all my life I
wanted to tell you
wanted to tell you more
all my life I
wanted to tell you
Break me, Lord.
I've taken control.
I don't know how to get up from this fall.
Fill my head with comfort instead and resolute mistakes past made.
Help me take this day by day.
Take what is yours.
Make it your own.
Show my way home.
Your will not mine.
I know if I surrender control.
Help me, Lord.
I failed you before.
I haven't quite accepted that I'm wrong.
What you see.
Mold it to be the life that you have planned.
A whispered wind, a broken life
I'm everything you took in stride
Find a way to sidestep the bullet
Your time is up and the clock's still ticking
I am not waiting for anyone
I am not waiting for you
You think you're in control
But you're just rolling with the punches
And I see right through you
(I see right through you)
You think you're in control
But you're just rolling with the punches
And I see right through you
(Right through you)
So watch your back and understand me 'cause I believe
('cause I believe)
I'll try to make you see
This is bigger than you and me
Make you understand
This was not part of the plan
I'll try to make you see
This is bigger than you and me
Make you understand
This was not part of the plan
You think you're in control
But you're just rolling with the punches
And I see right through
(Right through you)
So watch your back and understand me 'cause I believe
('cause I believe)
So watch your back and understand me
'Cause I couldn't let it be
('cause I couldn't let it be)
Fight for a chance to have it all
(to have it all)
The world is waiting for you
We will cheat you out of everything, that you would
We will sell you who you are
there are the choices that we already made
That we feel
Will suite you well
This is us selling you out, no
No one dares buy it
Don't stop, this is your life
There's no heart in your soul?
Stop telling to yourself that you want control.
Were fine enough, and depend on life, yea
Look our best sleep in
Close your eyes don't breathe to deep
Can you feel it (can you feel it?)
were watching your every move.
Don't stop, this is your life
There's no heart in your soul?
Stop selling to yourself that you want control.
There is an order in which you'll grow on, (grow on)
And learn whose bossin' who
There is an order in which you'll move, (move)
In which you'll learn to soon
Close your eyes
Can you feel it, can you feel it?
Close your eyes
Can you feel it, can you feel it?
oh, this is us selling you out
no, no one dares buy it
Don't stop, this is your life
There's no heart in your soul?
Stop selling to yourself that you want control.
Control
We lie you buy, We lie.
Die muthafucker,
You lie muthafucker
just try muthafucker, but it’s all in vain
I watched you die inside,
my mind you die.
Lies, your lies burn my eyes.
Fetid and abetted by the corporate lies
Wallow and swallow their filthy lies.
Die muthafucker,
You lie muthafucker
just try muthafucker, but it’s all in vain
Lies, your lies burn my eyes.
Lies, die inside my mind.
Wallow and swallow their filthy lies.
Fetid and abetted by the corporate lies
Wallow and swallow their filthy lies.
I watched you die inside,
my mind you die.
Wallow and swallow their filthy lies.
Soul of a 70′s number man, I can throw a curve underhandAnnotate
This for the streets, not Summer Jam
This ain't for the fans that wanna hear pop and snap
Drunk off Ciroc and the Yak, all y'all can watch from the back
This ain't for self proclaimed legends that nobody wanna hear from
Scared? get a gun, come to peers, I got none
This ain't for bandwagon fans sit y'all asses in the same spot
Y'all the same niggas made Trinidad Jame$ hot
This ain't to Kendrick Lamar, the nigga Kendrick got bars
I heard his shit and wasn't offended at all
And as it played I heard him say I wasn't mentioned with y'all
Joell started it, only right I finish the job
So all that shit is revocable, from an overview
Only thing noticeable is how he barely gave me any quotables
I state facts, not to say it's wack but check the playback
Outrhyming A$AP ain't showing me where your weight at
I'm on my shit today, you the king of New York
You might as well had spit on Biggie's grave, couldn't let that slip away
I'm in the court of public opinion, ready to click and spray
Light Jay Elec ass up, that's my Exhibit A
Bitch kill my vibe is what you wanna get into
Drown em all in a swimming pool, full of phlem and drool
You renting jewels what's with all the fascination?
So when I ask you 'bout it that's my cross examination
This a scrimmage to me, all these blemished MC's
Infamously it's about image I see
But if it's bars, not about bread, to hell with the wealth
Put you inside of the bullet, just to see a shell of yourself
I mean uh, since rap has been accessible, they action been regrettable
This is what the net'll do
Chick sending message to tricks ain't get to see 'em
They ain't even artists and they get paid per diem
We talking bars, then this whole conversation changed
Fuck all the subliminals now nigga saying names
Some of these OG's I laugh at, y'all don't know me to half ass
To me it's just one Joey that's bad ass
King of New York, my nigga stop it 5
Keep it funky Drake washed you twice
Tell me Tyler that fire with saliva? I reply don't bring a lie around
Run up on Meek with the silencer, nigga quiet down
Then ride off with his intro playing
Cause I get hype to that shit dog I ride to that shit
With nightmares, I wanna be at the root of em with the mag off
Know he love Philly so I'm leavin' him with Black Thoughts
You talking bars niggas better get help
They put they guts all on the track, still they never get felt
Lot of lower tier rappers tryna rep for they belt
Nigga it's levels to this, dog you said it yourself
But check it, when it comes to control, I might of lost a bit
Law abiding citizen style I'm coming for all of it
Running in your studio engineer that recorded it
Yes men that supported it, any blog that reported it
Any artist he tour with, snuff whoever bought the shit
Whoever thought of it, his mentor whoever taught him it
Interrupt with a sneeze, hiccup, fart, even cough or lick
If I got it twisted you coming to contort the shit
But the irony, y'all all inspire me
Y'all in a spot a lot of us aspire to be
We just striving my G, tip my hat so y'all know it's real
Fuck whoever mad, you said how we all suppose to feel
I know the game, some'll try to get amped
You push the envelope, some of us provided the stamp
Predecessors wrote the letter, others sealed it shut
Some was nice without the percs, before Amil got touched
It's Hip Hop, should blame on the mic these niggas hands on
Shades that they wear in the club, couches they stand on
You mixed credibility with dead ability
Raise the bar like you on par with this level of agility
Old UNLV Runnin' Rebel artillery, with Augmon at the 2
What sparring y'all wanna do?
Get to arguing with a Spartan, play it cool
I heard them alien voices, I'll knock the martian up outta dude
Separate the beast from the timid, it's hip hop
Fuck if your car is lease or rented, at least you in it
Foaming at the lips, looking like the yeast in women
Don't be facetious most of y'all been a feast from the beginning
This is for B.I.G., Suicidal Thoughts, Coogi printed
This for Nas, army jacket with the uzi in it
Not no Shiny Suit shit, this that 92 Knicks
This for Hov's missing 92 bricks
For State Prop and Beans, to when the L.O.X. first burst on the scene
For Queens, Pac and even Idi Amin
This for the Mobb and the purple tape, word to Inspectah Deck
This ain't for the labels nah, Wu said protect ya' neck
This ain't a diss, I don't want it to get spun wrong
And this for Big L, the block that Joe found Pun on
This shit is for Stack, I ain't talking a G
Nigga I'm talking a G!! My nigga talking on me
This is for every living rapper ever walked in these streets
And any outsider that happen to think that a portion is sweet
Niggas been killed for less and got a coffin for free
If you ever been in the hood, I think we all should agree
This for every nigga that took what you said in stride
I couldn't abide, some of us still take pride, check it
Limbs'll get crushed, hip hop's adrenaline rush
Men'll get touched, so if you feminine hush
Project benches I trust, came from syringes and dust
So who you named shouldn't be mentioned with us
But wait, at least half of em', other half rapped around
Dual clips that wrap around, gather every rapper 'round
See what happen when niggas try to go toe to toe
This what happen when you let a blood bath overflow
Used to do lines, how could they wanna go blow for blow
I could overdose and still drag you niggas comatose
This is lightweight, put the bucks up
Cause if we talking bars lot of y'all should shut the fuck up
This is lightweight, put the bucks up
Don't try and make yourself hate him
He tried that one with you
He ended up just hating himself
And more in love with you
You'll have to learn from all his mistakes
The brain can lie but your heart will never fake
He's been rushing around
Grabbing all he can find as quickly as he could
'Cause he knew you would
When he saw that distant look, he had to say goodbye
'Cause he knew you could
People say that he's a bastard, that's an unfair use of words
When I don't know what was going on, no, I never really heard
Why don't you wake up to what he's got
Do you have the time to find out if he's lost control?
There's no point in hanging around
If happiness can't be found, you'd better go
He never stopped to ask you why
He never had to try, well he was wrong
Why don't you wake up to what you want and listen to his lines
'Cause what you two have been going through has happened many times
I've never seen you taking any prisoners, but I've seen you weep
Yeah, I've seen you apologising, but thats not gonna work with me.
I've heard you're telling everybody what you've done to him
But that doesn't add up to a sorry and it's not gonna work with me
He's been rushing around
Grabbing all he can find as quickly as he could
'Cause he knew you would
When he saw that distant look, he had to say goodbye
'Cause he knew you could
Why don't you wake up to what he's got and stop filling him with lies
'Cause what you two have been going through has happened many times
I can’t control my mind
And the anger inside
Help me to understand
It’s feeling and its cause
My anger and my pain
Breaks me down and I feel ashamed
The anger inside, I can’t control it,
The anger inside, help me out
My hate makes me go on
I have almost lost my beloved
And the feelings I have inside
Will always remain within my heart
Te anger inside, I will fight it back
The anger inside, brought me back
How I know the confession of love
Don't try and make yourself hate him
He tried that one with you
He ended up just hating himself
And more in love with you
You'll have to learn from all his mistakes
The brain can lie but your heart will never fake
He's been rushing around
Grabbing all he can find as quickly as he could
'Cause he knew you would
When he saw that distant look, he had to say goodbye
'Cause he knew you could
People say that he's a bastard, that's an unfair use of words
When I don't know what was going on, no, I never really heard
Why don't you wake up to what he's got
Do you have the time to find out if he's lost control?
There's no point in hanging around
If happiness can't be found, you'd better go
He never stopped to ask you why
He never had to try, well he was wrong
Why don't you wake up to what you want and listen to his lines
'Cause what you two have been going through has happened many times
I've never seen you taking any prisoners, but I've seen you weep
Yeah, I've seen you apologising, but thats not gonna work with me.
I've heard you're telling everybody what you've done to him
But that doesn't add up to a sorry and it's not gonna work with me
He's been rushing around
Grabbing all he can find as quickly as he could
'Cause he knew you would
When he saw that distant look, he had to say goodbye
'Cause he knew you could
Why don't you wake up to what he's got and stop filling him with lies
'Cause what you two have been going through has happened many times
So much of me is you I don't know just who I am
Now I just can't believe in myself or in anything
And this is what you take from me
And this is what you take from me
And this is what you take from me
And this is what you take from me
I gave you my soul I gave you control of me
Now I just can't believe in myself or anything
And this is what you take from me
And this is what you take from me
And this is what you take from me
And this is what you take from me
Can't you just believe "you are my everything"
And this is what you take from me
you pull me by the arm
tell me what to believe
you tell me there is only one way
one way to see
whatever faith you chooce
may not be for me
how can i be saved

Everyone is turning on
Now everyone is high
It's early days for everyone
There's still a hill to climb
And nothing can stop us anymore
The shot that you took in the outside world
Everyone is signed away
Traveller out to sea
Trying not to hide away
Let you down gently
And nothing can stop us anymore
The shot that you took in the outside world
The road that is safe
The road that will sign you away
When I try to explain
Completely out of existence
Totally out of control
Our spirits are floating with no boundaries
Healing monumental catastrophes after all
A world significantly affected
By a high degree of uncertainty
A vivid hopeful illusion
Shall bring a positive solution
Artificial experience, plastic fights
What's the purpose of your journey tonight
Totally out of control, completely out of sight
Now don't worry
Everything's all right
Out of existence
Every hurt and shame you carry
All the tears and pain you've buried
Every broken dream and every doubt
All the wounds that left you shattered
Worried that you just don't matter
Every fear that you will be found out
Do not be afraid
Oh, let yourself, let yourself be known
You don't need, you don't need to hide
Step into the light and be known
Let yourself be known
There's a love that makes you stronger
There's a hope that that makes you bolder
There's a God whose arms are open wide
It's the way that He designed us
To show us power in our weakness
Open up and you will find His life
Do not be afraid
Oh, let yourself, let yourself be known
You don't need, you don't need to hide
Step into the light and be known
Let yourself be known
There is now no condemnation, oh
There is now no condemnation, oh
There is now no condemnation, oh
There is now no condemnation, oh
Oh, let yourself be known
Oh, let yourself, let yourself be known
You don't need, you don't to hide
Step into the light and be known
It's time to be known
It's time to be known
It's time for you to be known

i'm in control (and i love it, that's right)
control, now i've got a lot
control, now i'm all grown up
My heart is losing control over You
My heart is losing control over You
Lost in everlasting
Love's amorous glow
Set aflame despite the rain
And seven seasons of snow
I got accustomed to white knuckles
From all the time I spent alone
When I gave away my heart
I was neglected and disowned
And then You came to me
And took the time to speak in poems
And whispered that You'd like for me
To make with You a home
And now from the ashes like a phoenix
This new love has flown
Despite the greatest hearts
I'm afraid to lose control
My heart is losing control over You
My heart is losing control over You
My heart is losing control over You
My heart is losing control over You
I sing selah, my love and hallelujah, let go
Of the plans and demands that will maintain control
Of Your heart and Your head and Your spirit and soul
I'm a lovesick man and my love makes me bold
And I'll crawl through the wire
Through the fire and the cold
And I'll whisper Your name
Down every desolate road
Until I find You again
And I make sure You know
That my love will never die
My heart is losing control over You
My heart is losing control over You
My heart is losing control over You
My heart is losing control over You
Every time You get close to me
I feel my heart skip a beat
Every time You get close to me
I feel my heart skip a beat
Every time I get close to You
I feel my heart skip a beat
Every time I get close to You
I feel my heart skip a beat
Every time, every time
I'm waiting for you to be honest
I'm waiting for your explanation
Seems like i'm waiting forever
Cause all you have fed me are lies
I don't understand people like you
I don't understand your objective
Seems like you live to destroy me
Sadistic hypocrisy
You put me through hell and i let you
Before i learned how to speak
Drove me mad with desire
Took advantage cause i was too weak
Now the confusion has left me
You're insane if you think i'll give in
Solitude always kept me safe
With the walls i build within
All the years, been searching for something
To open my eyes
All the tears, been raining down
Another cigarette, and I'm so bored
Your words aren't making sense
And I was taken but you were waiting
One more drink and I'm convinced
Not one more sound
Let your hair down
Take the low road
No one will know
Whoa, I feel just like we're taking control
Of the night, of the night, yeah-yeah
Whoa, I feel just like we're losing control
But if you let go, I'll let go tonight
Another minute lived
If you take me I'll take what you will give
I was late and she kept waiting
But I hope she knows where I've been
Not one more sound
Let your hair down
Take the low road
No one will know
Whoa, I feel just like we're taking control
Of the night, of the night, yeah-yeah
Whoa, I feel just like we're losing control
But if you let go, I'll let go tonight
I'm coming down, bring me up
Take it off, let's just touch
I'm coming down, bring me up
Take it off, let's just touch
I'm coming down, bring me up
Take it off, let's just touch
I'm coming down, bring me up
Take it off, let's just touch
Whoa, I feel just like we're taking control
Of the night, of the night, yeah-yeah
Whoa, I feel just like we're losing control
But if you let go, I'll let go tonight
If I could find a way to believe
And you could rescue me then I?d leave
I?d pick myself up off the floor
And maybe we could run through it all
But you?re pulling me till I give
The way that you touch me, the way that I feel
The way that you own me, the soul that I need
There?s gotta be someway to be there tomorrow
There?s gotta be someway 'cause you're a dick to me
I?m outta control
And everybody said that they knew
That my collapse was way overdue
But I could show the world one day
That you could blow my world away
But you're pulling me till I give
The way that you touch me , the way that I feel
The way that you own me the soul that I need
There?s gotta be someway to be there tomorrow
There?s gotta be someway 'cause you're a dick to me
I?m outta control, I?m outta control
The way that you touch me, the way that I feel
The way that you own me the soul that I need
There?s gotta be someway to be there tomorrow
There?s gotta be someway, someway
The way that you touch me, the way that you own me
There?s gotta be someway to be there tomorrow
There?s gotta be someway 'cause you're a dick to me
I?m outta control, I?m outta control
I?m outta control, I?m outta control
I?m outta control, I?m outta control
This time the glove is latex
This time the suit is white
New life has found a place
It's laid eggs in someone's eye
Would I still want control?
Even when you don't?
Your skin's a lot like plastic
Some kind of bad disguise
Transfusing blood for paper
So sweet, you're drawing flies
I want control
Even when you don't
Would I still want control?
Even when you don't?
Control, control, control
this time the glove is latex
this time the suit is white
new life has found a place
it's laid eggs in someone's eyes

even when you don't
would i still want control
even when you don't

even when you don't
your skin's a lot like plastic
some kind of bad disguise
transfusing blood for paper
so sweet, you're drawing flys

[Chorus]
Don't, don't be so cold

The way that your body moves
It feels so right
The shake of your hips the
The taste of your lips drive me wild
Sweat begins to beat
Dancing in the sheets
Start to take over, find yourself in the lead
Take control, take control
Just lose yourself for a minute, you’ll find you won't regret it
Just take control take control
Throw away your inhibitions and find yourself in me.
The way that your body grooves feels so right
You got me dancing up all night
Fast then slow, away you go, start to lose your mind!
Take control, take control
Just lose yourself for a minute, you’ll find you won't regret it
Just take control take control
Throw away your inhibitions and find yourself in me.
Take control, take control
Just lose yourself for a minute, you’ll find you won't regret it
Just take control take control
Something strange is happening
I don't want you to lose control
Of my life
This feeling is growing stronger
And as I sit and I meditate
My mind can't help but think
Of you
I don't want to lose your love
No
Lose ooh ooh
I know I don't deserve your love
But on the other hand
We were created here to make mistakes
Because we're only human
But when you answer all my prayers
You let me know you're always there
In my soul
I don't wanna lose control
Lose ooh ooh
No I don't wanna lose you
You know sometimes
Life ist too damn hard
So hard we just lose ourselves
Just remember life is everyday
Live your heart and you will find your way
So please give love a chance to grow
Wake up one morning
And there ain't no more
So please don't let me lose control
I know I don't deserve your love
But on the other hand
We were created here to make mistakes
Because we're only human
But when you answer all my prayers
You let me know you're always there
In my soul
I don't want to lose control no
Lose ooh ooh
No I don't wanna lose you ooh ooh
I know I don't derserve your love
But on the other hand
We were created here to make mistakes
Because we're only human
And when you answer all my prayers
Feel your strength, just let it flow
The more you suppress, the weaker you grow
Build yourself a fortress of pride
Take control of your life, body and soul
Take control, body and soul
Take control, body and soul
Don't be scared, just let yourself go
Blow your minds, beyond all you know
Take a trip
Enjoy what you find
Take control of your life, body and soul
Take control, body and soul
Use your voice to command some respect
Show them all the power you possess
Your darkest thoughts, just cast them aside
Take control of your life, body and soul
Take control, body and soul
Take control, body and soul
Take control, take control, body and soul
Ain't nothin new in the game, old flames die but you still remain
Remain, inside my brain till the day they certifiably consider me insane
Control everything I do like a game
Checkmate my heart my heart won't be the same
You can see me with the strings still attached
If I move you can move me back it's like that
So many things I wanna say but you already know
You see right through the heart of me
So I'll just give you what I know that you're asking for
You got every part of me
You could never ask for too much, got me hypnotized by the way you love
And the truth is I, really want you for the rest of my life
And it's true what they say about love
A lil bit goes on long way and trust
I ain't ever gonna give you up
As long as I'm still alive I'm goin love
[Chorus:]
Oh, I want you to know, you're all that I been waiting for, I'm letting go, I think it's time for you to take control
[Post Chorus:]
Take it away [x4]
Cause who you are makes me wanna give it away
I don' t pay attention to, the crazy things that they say
I can't get enough of you
They try to tell me that without you I would still be ok
But they don't know you like I know I do
I'm so moved by the way you (are) shine like the brightest star and by (far) only one who knows who I are (you know I'm so into you) and I can't believe that you're (more) more than I ever could've dream (for) it's so amazing how I (would do anything for you)
It's crazy how you got me lately can't think straight cause I'm think bout you daily been through a lot and you saved me your love has never failed me I stay focused cause it's hard to coupe with what this world offers when your closest to the top but I can't flop cause I need your love to keep me on lock
[Bridge:]
Don't need to look around
I got you to hold me down now
You got me you got me you're all I need
I'll give you all control
So I'll never be alone now
There is no freedom -- there is no free choice.
Manipulated masses -- fall prey to government.
Bound inside your servitude -- your life is spent.
Your life controlled -- you have no voice.
Manipulated masses -- fall prey to government
Take control of the atmosphere
Take me far away from here
There is no better loss than to lose myself in you
In a parachute to glide, I am captive in your sky
Surrender has somehow become so beautiful
Take control of the atmosphere
Take control of the atmosphere
You can take my world, you can fill the air
Take control, take control
Such a beautiful surrender
Such a beautiful surrender
It's such a beautiful surrender
It's such a beautiful surrender
Move me up through the darkest clouds
'Til I've lost in the sun, every shadow of doubt
There is no better find than to find myself with you
In a fog, you are all I see
I'm inviting you closer with each time I breathe
Surrender has somehow become so beautiful
Take control of the atmosphere
Take control of the atmosphere
You can take my world, you can fill the air
Take control, take control
Take control, take control
Such a beautiful surrender
Such a beautiful surrender
It's such a beautiful surrender
It's such a beautiful surrender
Take control of the atmosphere
Take control of the atmosphere
There is no reason I should breathe
Unless you're in the air
Take control
Such a beautiful surrender
Such a beautiful surrender, surrender
And I'm calling out, would you take control?
This is a story about control
My control
Control of what I say
Control of what I do
And this time I'm gonna do it my way (my way)
I hope you enjoy this as much as I do
Are we ready?
I am
'Cause it's all about control (control)
And I've got lots of it)
When I was 17 I did what people told me, uhh!

What is this feeling controlling my brain
Hallucination, am I going insane
Who is this fool inside of me, I don't know
Seems like I'm stuck here, there is nowhere to go
I let myself go crazy
While staring at the sun
Never thought of retribution, no
Inside this never ending spinning wheel
I control myself
Is there a reason for going insane
My own creator is who I will blame
I twist and turn yeah Lord knows I need a break
Invite the healer yeah before it's too late
I let myself go crazy
While staring at the sun
Never thought of retribution, no
Inside this never ending spinning wheel
I control myself
I try To do my best,
To make you, Proud.
You tell me What you want me to know,
So you can mould me Into a fucking robot.
Liar, You want to control my life.
Liar, now feel as I twist the knife,
'cause you don't own me,
you don't own me,
you don't own me.
You want me To fill your life,
'Cause you feel empty Inside.
But I know the pain you caused me,
So I will rise up, and Stand tall.
Fuck you!
You don't control my life,
Fuck you,
So now feel as I twist the knife,

I've got fear when it's light and I'm walking around,
I've got fear when it's dark and I slip on the ground,
I've got fear
I've got fear
I've got fear
I've got fear when I don't even know it's around,
I've got fear every moment and I don't hear a sound,
I've got fear
I've got fear
I've got fear
I've got fear when it's light and I'm walking around,
I've got fear when it's dark and I slip on the ground,
I've got fear
I've got fear
I've got fear
I've got fear
I've got fear
There’s busy streets in busy towns
Full of busy people hurrying around
I don’t wanna join them, that much I know
I wanna remain in some control
Control
I feel this rage at everyone around
Instead of picking me up they drag me down
To the point where I cant move
And I can’t breathe cos I got no control
Control
But there’s no way to avoid
Becoming hectic and paranoid
Junk and crap we’re always sold
We’re losing grip cause we got no control
Well nobody knows, where love belongs
I've seen it in eyes, I've heard it in songs
It comes down to you
Lover what do I do?
I've listened to me, now I listen to you
Because I can't give, but I can take
Love for you, is all I've at stake on
I'm gonna lose my control
Lose my hold, and I'll be aksing you to follow me there
I'm gonna lose lose my control, lose my hold, so follow
me there
But when it comes down to hate
I have experience some ways
You see it's easy to be such a difficulty
I don't want you to be part of that story
Because I can't give, but I can take
Love for you, is all I've at stake on
I'm gonna lose my control
Lose my hold, and I'll be aksing you to follow me there
I'm gonna lose lose my control, lose my hold, so follow
me there
Lover what do I do?
Well nobody knows, where love belongs
I've seen it in eyes, I've heard it in songs
It comes down to you
Lover what do I do?

Because I can't give, but I can take
Love for you, is all I've at stake on

I'm gonna lose my control, lose my hold, so follow me
there
I'm gonna lose my control, lose my hold, so follow me
Oh, they're talking about ways things should be
And saying, how they were
Can't see forest for trees around me
I need a view from where air is clear
Relative is changing for things around me
When culture is the only thing that turns me on
I swim around in sympathy
Wet my finger in the air, feel it blow
It's Everlastin', Supernatural
Not a feelin'
He's the word, He's the Word
Oh the phase is harmless if I'm warm and happy
Black is white and grey seems fine I feel sublime
But gravity won't change because I want it to
And some things are true
I've heard a promise and read the words of life
Believing ain't a feeling inside
Can I trust the One who made this art and lose myself
Hurts at first, but that's just pride
It's Everlastin', Supernatural
Not a feelin'
He's the word, He's the Word
It's confusing
And troubling, bothersome
It's a problem
When my feelings
Take control
It's Everlastin', Supernatural
Not a feelin'
He's the word, He's the Word
It's a problem, I can't solve it, It's a problem
I can't solve it, I can't solve it
I'm on the run
Away from you
Cause I need some time
To unleash this anger of mine
I'm in the dark
To hide from you
Where time can heal
Almost all of my wounds
I care a lot
But not for you
When you fell apart
You broke down and took me along
I'm on the run
Away from you
Where time can heal
Almost all my wounds
Now I can't get out
You locked me in
And I realize
That I never will
And you're still outside and well
While I roam around in hell
And I am afraid of the dark
I've lost control
Of me
Nowhere to go
And nothing to see
I've lost control
Of me
You said you're lonely, you said you're blue
You lost your lover, let me console you
If you surrender, you'll feel no pain
'Cause I'm the master at this game
Let me kiss it and make it better

Ahora quisiera escapar
Estar afuera de mi
En donde nadie te encuentra
En donde pueda seguir
Voy a caer en cualquier momento
No se hasta donde, no puedo ver
Quiero tener control
Salir del cuerpo hoy
Y estar tan alto que no puedan ver
Ahora quiero sacar
Todo este peso de mi
La herida sigue creciendo
Ya no soporto sentir
Yo a salir en cualquier momento
Solo un esfuerzo para vencer
Quiero tener control
Salir del cuerpo hoy
Y estar tan alto que no puedan ver
Ahora quiero estar
Devuelta sobre mis pies
Mirando y agradeciendo

Why should you have control?
Why should you have it all?
Why should you have control of everything?
All you scandal merchants heavy breathers phoney virgins midnight creepers finger-waggers man-blamers knuckle-draggers woman-tamers throw another stone with the namers & shamers
Why should you have control?
Why should you have it all?
Why should you have control of everything?
Rehab-haunters teenage has-beens habit-flaunters slicon pop-queens star-shaggers gland-handers back-stabbers crash-landers bring on the paparazzi D-list grandstanders
Why should you have control?
Why should you have it all?
Why should you have control of everything?
Take those daddy's inbred little pharoahs silver-spoon fed pisteroles born winners born takers born spinners born fakers all you wannabe movers and shakers
Why should you have control?
Why should you have it all?
The world might end,
the night might fall.
Rain on down and cover us all,
and drown us with the burdens of our sins.
Maybe I'll look you in the eye,
tell you, you don't wanna die.
Maybe I'll hold my breath and jump right in.
Maybe I'll hold my breath and jump right in.
I never saw you coming from inside my little prison,
your autograph would really buy me time.
If you think you are the reason,
give me something to believe in.
It's always darkest right before the dawn.
It's always darkest right before the dawn.
I confess I've lost control,
I let my guard down,
I let the truth out.
Oh I confess I've lost control,
I let my guard down,
I let the truth out.
The final celebration,
a bad hallucination.
Flip a coin and see which way I fall,
The shark tail is singing.
We love to watch him killing,
and suffer through a never ending day.
Suffer through a never ending day.
I can feel I've lost control,
I let my guard down,
I let the truth out.
oh I can feel I've lost control,
You let your guard down,
You let the truth out.
I was trapped like a prisoner in my skin.
I was punished like an enemy for my sins.
I was blind,
I was caged,
and I was tricked,
and I was suffocating.
I was suffocating.
I can feel I've lost control,
Oh I can feel we've lost control.
I was suffocating.
I confess I've lost control,
and I was suffocating.
Ih I was suffocating,
I can feel we've lost control.
Feel my hunger.
Feel my hunger.
Ooooh... ooooh... ooooh... ooooh...
I was suffocating
I try to control what's in my mind
Run out of solutions
This is my only way to leave it behind
The lights go out
The chairs kicked out
Reach out with both hands
Never able to break free
Locked away in a dark room
Choking the life from me
I feel it burn
Scars into my neck
Digging deeper
Rope against my flesh
The light goes out
The chairs kicked out
It keeps getting shorter
All hope is fading fast
I've given up
Err on the side of caution
They're taking in the new girls
(Two faced, too poised to shed a tear)
No memory to speak of
(Passed in the night, we didn't hear)
The fading breath of your love
We lose control of the moment
Another trend goes out of season
A new love forever
Look the other way
You see through me
A new trend, indifference
You are a child of privilege
Your reputation leads you
(All traits of life will disappear)
You're falling into season
(Their every word is insincere)
There is no time for reason
We lose control of the moment
Another trend goes out of season
A new love forever
Look the other way
You see through me
A new trend, indifference
Remember our childhood
It's not quite the same
A pale hue of new blood
They all know your name
We lose control of the moment
Another trend goes out of season
A new love forever
Look the other way
You see through me
Digital eyes
Scanning your lives
Through the walls
Into the minds
Watching your moves
No place to hide
Analized
Scrutinized
Tyranny
Of technology
You're connected
You're detected
Hidden powers
A cruel device
Merciless
Progress
[Chorus:]
Control
Big brother watching you
Control
What if they controlled you
What if they erased your mind
I bet you one thing
You wouldn't know, you wouldn't know at all
Sometimes I feel
There's something on my mind wasting time
I really don't know
But I've gotta find the way
If it's a chance you want
Would you stop and think about somebody else
I really don't think so
I really don't think
I really don't think you would think about
What if they could see you
You're just a face amongst the crowd
Hiding around so you can't be found
You wouldn't know
What if they could love you
What if they had a chance
About a lonesome thing
You wouldn't know
What if they could love you
What if they had a chance
I bet you one thing
You wouldn't know, you wouldn't know
What if they could buy you
How much more to change your mind
And still ...............
It's just rock'n'roll to me
It's just one of those things, one of those things
Babylon release the chain
The cut is deep, but never deep enough for me
It doesn't hurt enough to make me forget
One moment of relief is never long enough
To keep the voices in my head
From stealing my peace
Oh, control
It's time, time to let you go
Perfection has a price
But I cannot afford to live that life
It always ends the same; a fight I never win
Oh, control
It's time, time to let you go
I'm letting go of the illusion
I'm letting go of the confusion
I can't carry it another step
I close my eyes and take a breath
I'm letting go, letting go
There were scars before my scars
Love written on the hands that hung the stars
Hope living in the blood that was spilled for me
Oh, control
It's time, time to let you go...
Control
This burden's not a heavy one
But I assure you, it's present
This burden's not a heavy one
But I assure you, it is present
You say that you're in control
You say that you are
I can't think of a time
When you looked less alive
You said, "Wait until light, my dear"
Just wait until light
One more day will go by
Maybe today you should try
Look past the mirror and find
Look past the mirror
That there's something inside
Something more to your life
My words won't heal you now
My words won't heal
It is you who decides
It is you who decides
This burden's not a heavy one
But I assure you, it's present
This burden's not a heavy one
I assure you
Believe that you are just fine
Believe that you are
You'll feel so alive
You'll feel so alive
Be what you are now
(Be what you are)
Be what you are
Do not keep it inside
That hate will not subside
Be what you are now
(Be what you are)
Be what you are
Do not keep it inside
That hate will not subside
It's you, decide
It's you, decide
So alive
You'll feel so alive
This burden's not a heavy one
But I assure, I assure you
This burden's not a heavy one
Not a heavy one
Did we ever have the thought to wonder why,
that happenstance, the bliss,
the blinding eyes, are under their control.
We feel the fright, inside, we walk away,
the pockets passions price we have to pay.
Is under their contorol.
Don't become a victim, waste away, los your soul.
Now sing it back to me.
We are the slaves, the mass the undermined,
the rotting future and the darkended mind.
We're under their control.
We are the broke, the lost, provincial tame,
the status quo that leaves us all ashamed.
We're under their control.
Don't become a victim, waste asway, lose your soul.
Nothing matters.
Our love and our lives hang in balance,
and we don't understand where our choices lay.
And we want, but its just as fun to hate yourself, when nothing matters.
We feel inside, awake we have to try,
to steal our fate back from the dollar signs.
Not under their control.
We make a wave, a light, exploding time,
we climb together to make hearts aligned.
Not under their control.
Don't become a victim, waste away, lose your soul.
Nothing matters.
Our love and our lives hang in balance,
and we don't understand where our choices lay.
And we want, but it's just as fun to hate yourself, when nothing matters.
Didn't we go, did we go, did we go insane.
Didn't we go, didn't we move faster to sleep than to change.
I dont' wait for change. I rectify.
Don't we need a change, tear free from their control.
Don't, you mess,
With a little girl's dream.
'Cause she's liable to grow up,
Mean.
Surprise you to find that I'm laughing?
You thought that you'd find me in tears.
You thought I'd be crawling,
The walls like a tiny mosquito,
And trembling in fear.
Well, you may be king for the moment,
But I am a queen understand,
And I've got your pawns and your bishops and,
Castles,
All inside the palm of my hand.
While you were looking the other way,
While you had your eyes closed.
While you were licking your lips,
'Cause I was miserable.
While you were selling your soul.
While you were tearing a hole,
In me.
I was taking control.
Now I have taken control. (I have... control...)
Now I have taken control. (I have... control...)
Now I have taken control.
Control...
This is beginning to feel good,
Watching you squirm in your shoes,
A small bead of sweat on your brow,
And a growl in your belly,
You're scared to let through.
You thought you could keep me from loving,
You thought you could feed on my soul.
But while you were busy destroying my life,
What was half in me has become whole.
While you were looking the other way.
While you had your eyes closed.
While you were licking your lips,
'Cause I was miserable.
While you were selling your soul.
While you were tearing a hole,
In me.
I was taking control
Now I have taken control. (I have... control...)
Now I have taken control. (I have... control...)
Now I have taken control.
Control...
So this is how it feels,
To breathe in the summer air.
To feel the sand between my toes,
And love inside my ear.
All those things, you taught me to fear,
I've got them in my garden now and,
You're not welcome here.
Come here.
Come a little bit closer...
Let me look at you.
I gave you the benefit of the doubt it's true,
But keep in mind my darling,
Not every saint is a fool!
(Don't)
While you were looking the other way, (you mess)
While you had your eyes closed. (with me)
While you were licking your lips,
'Cause I was miserable.
(Don't)
While you were selling your soul (you mess)
While you were tearing a hole,
In me.
(I was taking control)
Now I have taken control. (I was taking control)
Now I have taken control. (control)
Control...
(Control)
Control...
Don't you mess with me.
(Spoken)
This cannot be all that there is to life,
Because, in our confrontation, with,
An enormous and cold, universe.
There is something comical, to the idea
That we can really enforce our will, on humanity.
Power, corrupts.
It's your world, do with it what you want!
No, that's not the way to do it.
Power... That's not the way to do it.
Paradox
It's your world
It's your world
It's your world
Control it! Control it!
(This is scaring me...
I live at the end of a 5 and 1/2 minute hallway
I live at the end of a 5 and 1/2 minute hallway)
At the end of it all lies of course the final phenomenon of deterioration
Entropy
There is a lot of debating about whos controlling who but i have something to tell you there is someone controlling you be a boss or a teacher a god or a parent your answering to someone and your suffering from it from birth to death were told what to do answering to people who are no better than you its easy to point fingers verbally rebel actions will speak louder than the words we fucking yell. CHORUS:dont give in and do whats wrong dont give in learn to be strong others can be affected by what you do do unto others as they do to you society figures try to hold us down its hard to get things going while lying on the ground always be ready to make a sneak attack and when you get the chance take your power back REPEAT CHORUS
she's mass destruction
forces induction
no repercussions
she's got to have one
through repetition
brings joy by friction
she never wanted
she never wanted
she rules desire
by force of fire
this violent mind
this violent mind
no conversation
just pure deception
pure lust defined
pure lust defined
sharp execution
extreme exertion
never exhaustion
just pure addition
no confrontation
no blank permission
she can't control
she can't control
her exhibition
raw as it could be
her deprivation
I never could believe
this malediction
no where to run
the painful truth is that
it exists in everyone
can't find the escape
search for the outbreak
no way to terminate
no way to terminate
too overwhelming
too overpowering
desecrate, violate
Something is boiling, boiling in me
Someone is toying, toying with me
It won't get out, it won't stop
It don't move out, it won't leave
It won't get out, it won't stop
It don't move out
I need it now, eeey, um
I need it now, eeey, um
Someone's ignoring, ignoring defeat
But the taste of your poison,
Your poison is sweet, so sweet
He won't give up, but I won't up and go
I don't know how
He won't give up, but I won't up and go
He's had enough, I won't leave
He won't give up, but I won't up and go
I don't know how
He won't give up, but I won't up and go
He's had enough, I need it now
I need it now
Took my heart and kept it
Now my wounds are septic
There's no choice but to lose
I've become so reckless
All my love's infected
With the remnants of you
She's not the girl you know, she's not the girl you know.
She's living in her room, she's living in her room.
But I never thought you were this way,
you've never seen her photographs.
She was sick, but she made you feel so good.
Make me feel like that, make me feel the way she does.
Make me feel like that, make me feel the way she does.
She wants to change her life, she wants to change her life.
You've got a big success, you've got a big success.
But I never thought you were this way,
you've never seen her photographs.
She was sick, but she made you feel so good.
Make me feel like that, make me feel the way she does.
Make me feel like that, make me feel the way she does.
She never loose control, she never loose control.
She's living in her room, she's living in her room.
But I never thought you were this way,
you've never seen her photographs.
She was sick, but she made you feel so good.
Make me feel like that, make me feel the way she does.
I feel feelings from long ago
Branded on my soul, welcome to my show
I?ve been searching through the past through the things that didn?t last
And I?ve been coming up short and I wanna be where you are
I don?t want to wait anymore 'cause I?ve tried
And I don?t wanna lose this time
I don?t want to wait anymore
'Cause, it hurts me so that I feel I?ve lost control
I deal dealings in my mind from memories left behind
That keep running through my head
I try so hard but always trip, you?re at my fingertips
Telling me this love?s not and I wanna be where you are
I don?t want to wait anymore 'cause I?ve tried
And I don?t wanna lose this time
I don?t want to wait anymore
'Cause it hurts me so that I feel I'm losing control
Just give me half a chance
And I won?t let you down
I feel feelings from long ago
Branded on my soul, welcome to my show
I don?t wanna wait anymore, 'cause I?ve tried
And I don?t wanna lose this time
I don?t want to wait anymore
'Cause It hurts me so that I feel I'm losing control
I don?t wanna wait anymore, 'cause I?ve tried
And I don?t wanna lose this time
I don?t want to wait anymore

There is a fascist
Inside of you
Controlling your life
And what you do
Fascist control
There is a fascist
Inside your head
Controlling your thoughts
Until your death
You try to run me, but it's not happening
Is this on purpose? Are you an accident?
You try to tell me, tell me, you try to push me round
You're just like gravity, you keep me on the ground
You can't tell me what to do
Last time I checked, I don't belong to you
If you try, just know you will always lose
We just met, I'm already over you
You don't know me, I'm not who you think I am
You don't own me, your wish is not my command
Oh oh oh oh
You think you're in control
You think you're in control
Control, control, control
You think you're in control
You want my cherry kisses, I'm like a purple rain
Caus' I'm your fantasy, the one that you can't contain
Watch how you talk to me, when you speak my name
Who do you think you are, not falling for your game
You can't tell me what to do
Last time I checked, I don't belong to you
If you try, just know you will always lose
We just met, I'm already over you
You don't know me, I'm not who you think I am
You don't own me, your wish is not my command
Oh oh oh oh
You think you're in control
You think you're in control
Control, control, control
You think you're in control
I have no clue who crowned you
King of this world, you don't rule me
Think you're in control
Control, control, control
Think you're in control
Control, control, control, control
You don't know me, I'm not who you think I am
You don't own me, your wish is not my command
Oh oh oh oh
You think you're in control

Pretty baby, don't you know, times they are a changin'
Every little moment we grow up we lose control
Life's a loaded gun with no directions
And it keeps you on the run, it has no mercy
Mum and daddy went to war, never coming back no more
Did you ever think they'd make you whole again
Maybe someone dropped a bomb
Just right into the middle of your soul-they're in control
You got to get out of control again - no more control again
You're getting whole again - ain't no control again
You got to get out of control
20th century honey bee, what you're doing is what you'll be
Life's no dress rehearsal when you bring the honey in
Everything seems wrong to thee
Nurtured from the poison of reality that has no mercy
All your friends went for the thrill, now it's yours to grab the kill
Did you ever think you're getting whole again
Maybe someone send a priest with some religion cooking in a bowl
They're in control
You got to get out of control again...
What's the fucking thing about control, did you think you'd ever getting
whole
We are close to war
Everything we know is
Open after all the change
We all see the door
Hoping it'll open
Something in a major way
And you are, you are, you are
Looking at a brand new day
We are in the war
Even though we know it
Everyone remains in play
We all wish for more
Only way to go is
Try to give it all away
And you are, you are, you are
Looking at a brand new day
The sun won't let up
We've all upset our show
The wait gets better, though
And we hope you are
And you are, you are, you are, you are, you are
O-Oh, say we're all together
Pray that things get better soon
Stay, we all suffer the cold
Still, I know we are
And you are, you are, you are, you are, you are
O-Oh, say we're all together
Pray that things get better soon
Stay, we all suffer the cold
Still, I know we are
And you are, you are, you are, you are, you are
Oh, oh, oh, ohhh oh ohhh oh ohhh oh
Oh it's true
You and I are gonna find a world that moves
To the beat of our heart and I hope it's soon
'Cause the time is ticking with the harvest moon
Simple true confession, I don't understand
Why you never did call me when I said you could
Oh you never did call me and I know I'm good
And I know, I know, I know, I know, I know ya said you would
And I wanted you to know that I am gonna lose control
Oh it's true, you and I are gonna find a world that moves
If we sit in silence will we change our mood
Understand the breath I breathe inside of you
Simple true confession, I don't understand
Why you never did call me when I said you could
Oh you never did call me and I know I'm good
And I know, I know, I know, I know, I know ya said you would
And I wanted you to know how that I am going to lose control
Ooooh, ooohhh...
It's building up inside my brain
All I want to give to you
All I ever knew inside
All I ever knew inside me
Happiness is warm inside
Happiness is warm inside
Happiness is warm inside
Happiness is warm inside...
Oh it's true, you and I are gonna find a world that moves
On a one way highway
Only lights lead the way
My life left behind me
The music begins to play
With the stars to see me
Liberation lifts the shell
That's on me
In a newborn image
I'm the only one who sees
Let the music take control
Only driven by the light that
It shows
Dont take away my light
It's the only thing keeping me alive
As I'm walking forward
My shadown's got my back
I'm free from all that binds me
Still holding things intact
Now the stars can free me
As I drift into this melody
In my newborn image
I'm the only one who sees
I found a new life
Inside this world
I found my light
I'm not letting go
Now I see all I've
Been searching for
It's all in sight
I Found my life
On a one way highway
Have you ever, ever have to stand and just watch while your life was like a game on your Xbox welcome to the club I'm the president
We're almost like a nation of fools We're public spending's cut down to not We're clutching at invisible straws And no one's here to tell where they lead to Who's to tell us who's in control
Captivating volunteered economic slavery weary fingers
worked to the bone as another cog continues to turn
within this bleeding machine opening eyes to another's
century-old dying dreams the stark realzation of the
unforseen torching the mass produced hives emancipates
the enslaved but will the scrambled convalescing worker
drones to be too content to fly away exchanging the
precious grains within the hour glass for crimson fist-
fulls of pastel verdine masonic greed hypnotized by the
capitalistic brainwashed desires, prosthetic needs,
rheumatic deformities breeding an apathetic world who's
occipants conspire betrayals gravitating towards
meaningless successsion along the corprate chairs force-
fed images of suburbia's fairy tales complete with the
flawlessly narcissistic supermodel inhabitants the
preprogammed suicidal inclinations join the looming
feelings of soical inadequacny accompanying the bulimic
casualties insatible members of an improbable utopain
culture bent on torturing themselves merely for false
promises of perfection alleviate the symptoms, never the
cause perpetuate the systems of suppression absinthely
forget the prescribed pain with the dispensed nerve
deadening medication willing participants of the misery
will smilingly share their suffering subjects of
constraining submission to the exhausting drudgery
corporate apathy reaches acceptability this empty
security for the ease of conformity meanwhile the
vampiric gears grind to autonmy as each drop of life is
Ladies in the front row, touch them toes
Fellas in the back, get the bank roll
Twirk, roll, stop, control
Twirk, roll, stop, control
Ladies in the front row, touch them toes
Fellas in the back, get the bank roll
Twirk, roll, stop, control
Twirk, roll, stop, control
On the band up, put your drinks to the sky
Bartender refill the wine
Then, then break and repeat the rhyme
Wanna, wanna freak and pick the alpine
If you get Shamay for Alazae
Or Lisa, Angie, Canbraney
Or nobody if you ain't tryna stay poor
Everybody that's what I came for
I'm a rider, that's why I play more juke
More bounce, more club, more wave, core
A southsider, that's why I stay more
Thump more, club more, bass more, flavor
You know, all the shit that we be on
What my baby hit me on, what my baby see me on
I stay dipped in Baby Phat and Benetton
Every day, all the time, Chi-town every time
Ladies in the front row, touch them toes
Fellas in the back, get the bank roll
Twirk, roll, stop, control
Twirk, roll, stop, control
Ladies in the front row, touch them toes
Fellas in the back, get the bank roll
Twirk, roll, stop, control
Twirk, roll, stop, control
From the beach to the lot, to the club, to the grocery
Kid sis run shit, don't hold me
Back man, nah man, I'm posted
Up in the VIP room, I got mimosas
Wanna let me flow, get down, go ahead
We finnin' to rock away just like Doug did
Bad ass kids birthdays at Show Biz
I bring the cake out, call me the hostess
If you make paper and your mug say mean
I might let you fucks with my team
'Cause I'm a mama jamma, my jams been clean
I stays paid on the first and the fifteenth
It's like the sound of neighbors over your head
I got the erky erk over the beat
It's like the kid so major making the ends
I got the jerky jerk at the end of my sentence
Ladies in the front row, touch them toes
Fellas in the back, get the bank roll
Twirk, roll, stop, control
Twirk, roll, stop, control
Ladies in the front row, touch them toes
Fellas in the back, get the bank roll
Twirk, roll, stop, control
Twirk, roll, stop, control
In the bank, in the bank
In the bank, in the bank
In the bank, in the bank
In the bank, in the bank
In the bank, in the bank
In the bank, in the bank
In the bank, in the bank
Roll, twirk, twirk, twirk, control
Ladies in the front row, touch them toes
Fellas in the back, get the bank roll
Twirk, roll, stop, control
Twirk, roll, stop, control
Ladies in the front row, touch them toes
Fellas in the back, get the bank roll
Twirk, roll, stop, control
Twirk, roll, stop, control
Ladies in the front row, touch them toes
Fellas in the back, get the bank roll
Twirk, roll, stop, control
This is about control, it's about vision, my vision, my mission
Don't tell me about what you think, 'cause I don't care, no I don't care
Chorus:
We all want control of our destiny, we all want control of our lives
We all want control of our eachother, we all see the fear in our eyes
An old man was sitting on a corner, he couldn't remember where he lived
I felt so sad until he told me
He knew where he was and that was enough for him
(chorus)
Open my eyes to it, I can see that way too
Open your eyes to it, you can see that way too
(chorus)
We all want control, we all want control, we all want control
I woke up in our bed, but you weren't there
Some dreams start out as dreams and turn into nightmares
I, been screaming your name, but it's always the same
And I can't shut my mouth and hope you'll love me
I, I've been at this too long, when I know that it's wrong to be here
Tonight, I'm just letting you know,
I'm taking back control
Watch as I leave, ache to your soul
Baby, I'm taking back control
Control
You had every chance to make it right
You know I've loved you more than anyone else in life
I'm, not yours anymore, I'll pick up my tears off the floor
Cause baby, you had my heart and I'm taking it back
I, I've been at this too long, when I know that it's wrong to be here
Tonight, I'm just letting you know,
I'm taking back control
Watch as I leave, ache to your soul
Baby, I'm taking back control
(Do you remember the sound of your freedoom)
Control
(Marching on in here to my life's beating drum
Do you remember the sound of me leavin')
May I reming you... Who I was before you...
I, I've been at this too long, when I know that it's wrong to be here
Tonight, I'm just letting you know,
I'm taking back, I'm taking it back, taking it back, I'm taking it back
Taking it back, taking it back, I'm taking it back
Tonight, I'm just letting you know
I'm taking back control
Watch as I leave, ache to your soul
Baby, I'm taking back control
Control
Baby, I'm taking back control
Control
So we begin to fall apart
And I guess that's all right
When there's not much left to lose
But I took it straight to heart
When I asked her for the truth
And she couldn't say the words
I should've known
It's better just to end it
Than to let it go
At least it lessens any stress you can unload
That will drag you under
It's better to have control
So I took a little trip
And I got into a fight
But it's only, I'm sure
And I called her up in Reno
And she's busy every time
I don't call there anymore
I should've known
It's better just to end it
Than to let it go
At least it lessens any stress you can unload
That will drag you under
It's better to have control
What can hold me safe
What can overstrain
So long
That every incidence
Anything we sow is great
I know
I should've known
It's better just to end it
Than to let it go
At least it lessens any stress you can unload
That will drag you under
It's better to have control
I should've known
I should've known
I should've known
