[ar:Hands Like Houses]
[al:Unimagine]
[00:03.12] Here I am.
[00:04.29] The hammer strikes one, two, three
[00:07.45] I'm impatiently tapping my feet
[00:10.88] In a murmuring room full of critics and fakers
[00:14.12] All waiting to take their seat
[00:37.99] The focus of the room, all bating breath
[00:42.61] Waiting on a single word that could spill from my mouth
[00:47.68] That would give them a reason to take me for all I'm worth
[00:51.75] I took the oath to tell the truth
[00:55.55] So freely I'll tell you this
[00:58.00] My path's my own and mine alone
[01:04.23] You won't understand. You want what I am
[01:08.27] Forgetting the man inside
[01:10.84] I'm calling you out, so try take me down
[01:16.23] I took infinity from the sky
[01:20.96] And I made it, I made it my own
[01:23.30] But not for you to turn into your personal property
[01:29.39] I will outlast the turning of time
[01:33.69] But I know that, know that you're scared of me
[01:36.88] And what I can achieve, but I won't be waiting
[01:42.65] I don't use your lungs to breathe
[01:44.25] Your feet can't walk for me.
[01:45.96] So tell me where you take your right to my mind.
[01:48.87] Brought the sky down on our heads
[01:50.18] Never mine to claim, you said.
[01:52.06] So tell me where you take your right to my freedom
[01:54.95] My cause for creation, my mind, my direction, my life?
[02:00.53] Unlock and engage.
[02:02.97] Everyone's equal but no-one's the same
[02:06.96] We give what we choose
[02:09.35] But we give what we want to, not to be used.
[02:13.03] I took infinity from the sky
[02:17.13] And I made it, I made it my own
[02:19.28] But not for you to turn into your personal property
[02:25.21] I will outlast the turning of time
[02:30.48] But I know that, know that you're scared of me
[02:33.13] And what I can achieve, but I won't be waiting
[02:39.27] I'm the one who lit the fuse
[02:41.72] I'm the one who pulled it out from under you
[02:44.93] I'm the one who wears the consequence
[02:48.14] I'm the one who will stay true to myself
[02:50.73] So I'll wish you all well
[02:52.32] But I'll take my ideas with me
[02:56.51] You won't understand. You want what I am
[03:00.34] Forgetting the man inside
[03:02.88] I'm calling you out, so try take me down
[03:08.47] I took infinity from the sky
[03:12.79] And I made it, I made it my own
[03:15.29] But not for you to turn into your personal property
[03:21.12] I will outlast the turning of time
[03:25.83] But I know that, know that you're scared of me
[03:29.02] And what I can achieve, but I won't be waiting
