A song
Read the lyirics of the following song. Can you relate any stanzas with some parts of the Faustus play? Explain.
I'm in control
I got a bulletproof soul
And I'm full of self-esteem
I invented myself with no one's help
I'm a prototype supreme
I sit on my private throne
And run my lifestyle all alone
Me, myself and I agree
We don't need nobobdy else
I never learned to bow, bend or crawl
To any known authority
I really want to build my statue tall
That's all
I'm just trying to be God
I only wanna be God
I just wanna be God
Why can't I be God
I got no time to take advice
I want to gamble with my eternity
With loaded dice
I don't need a preacher in my face
When I'm the omnipresent ruler of the human race
Ain't gonna
Spend my life being no one's fool
I was born to rock and I was born to rule
But if I'm wrong on judgement day
I'm royally screwed with hell to pay
I never learned to bow, bend or crawl
To any known authority
I really want to build my statue tall
That's all
I'm just trying to be God
I only wanna be God
I just wanna be God
Why can't I be God
I'm just trying to be God
I only wanna be God
I just wanna be God
Why can't I be God
I'm just trying to be God
I only wanna be God
I just wanna be God
Why can't I be God
