Delusions of Grandeur Lyrics


The world trembles in awe before my feet

A savant in every trait

Yet my past is of humility

No wealth to our name, and shunned by society

Like a phoenix from the ashes I rose above and deemed my place

Like a diamond in the rough, waiting to shine, waiting to glow in all my splendor

You may ask yourself, how do I shine so bright

Im not to blame for this gift I have

And I say how dare you

How dare you, To question me

Destined to surpass all of you

My path paved in gold, oh the emeralds

I might bleed unto you if you bow deep enough

For you know what I say is true

Like a phoenix from the ashes I rose above and deemed my place

Like a diamond in the rough, waiting to shine, waiting to glow in all my splendor

Once I bore the cross for you, at a time of despair

I took your sins, and made them my own

Why do you worship a relic of me?

When im standing here before you

Long have I searched for a father, but in vain.

Who could create a man like me, but god?

When you thought all hope is gone, I rose from beyond

I rose from beyond
