Illusion of Power - 2024 Tony Iommi Remix

What is it that turns you on to the illusion of power?

This thing that grabs you by the heart

And makes you want to tear things down

There is no reason why I should need all this power

But if you cross me now, I'm gonna tear your whole world down

Illusion of power

Things that I feel seem so real

Illusion of power

I can't get the emotional thing straight in my head

Everything I love dies too soon or is already dead

Don't stand too close, I spit and breathe fire

Anything I've got now you cannot desire

You wanna be my friend, I promise you nothing

Nothing I can give you, nothing I can do for you

I'm being chased by the sins of my past and it's killing me now

Killing me now

Illusion of power

Things that I feel seem so real

Illusion of power

Illusion of power

It's already set, signed and sealed

Illusion of power

Powerful, who are you fooling?

You're caught in a complex catacomb of your own

Inadequacies and pitiful weaknesses

Your soul secretes insecurity

So you live on the reflection side of the mirror

You're terrified of true power, you fear me

I can tell you stories of my shaded past

And I can drag you down into the depths of my soul

Illusion of power

Things that I feel seem so real

Illusion of power

Illusion of power

It's already set, signed and sealed

Illusion of power

Why don't you come closer?

Promise a story I will tell, yeah

I'll save you from your dreams, yeah

Save you from your dreams

You to fear me

It's illusion

Just an illusion
