I Am Not Ordinary Man
I am death
I am destroyer
I am not ordinary man
I have kept all people faithless
Since the present world began.
I am Stalin
I am Hitler
I am everything you fear
I prey on people's consciences
And I am always near.
I am madness
I am anger
I am the cancer in the cell
I am the one that draws the line
Between what’s heaven
And what's hell.
I am not
The known grim reaper
I am not called Lucifer
I am courteous to strangers
And I listen
Very well.
I am Iraq
I am Bali
I've been to 'Ghanistan.
I'm not the devil
I'm imperfect
For I am simply Man.
