lyrics

Exile
Denial
Apprehend me
I don’t think you can
It’s a short run vacation
When I do return, heads will roll

May they never catch me
Surely die if they do
So I’ll run forever if I have to
They will try replace me
Surely after the coup
They’ll install a puppet and claim democracy

Chain me up, send back
Full accountability
Public execution
You gotta be joking
Never too much power in the hands of a man
Power over people
Restoration will be had

Those who turned against me
Those who think I’m a fool
I will not forgive the blatant treachery
I will wait in exile for the sycophants to align
I still have some allies on the inside

Chain me up, send back
Full accountability
Public execution
You gotta be joking
Never too much power in the hands of a man
Power over people
Restoration will be had

What goes up will always come down
What goes up will always come down
What goes up will always come down
What goes up will always come down
What goes up will always come down
What goes up will always come down
Watch your back and never come back
You’ll be in exile
Don’t underestimate me and my iron resolve
I will have you all back under my control
There’ll be no escaping, re-education for all
You will learn to love me or go crazy

Chain me up, send back
Full accountability
Public execution
You gotta be joking
Never too much power in the hands of a man
Power over people
Restoration will be had

What goes up will always come down
What goes up will always come down
What goes up will always come down
What goes up will always come down
What goes up will always come down
What goes up will always come down
Watch your back and never come back
You’ll be in exile
