Master of acquisition
I'm one step from you
Apprentice of ambition
I'm one step removed

Captain of opposition
I'm one step from you

Spreading it's weight around
Across a body left numb

God of repetition
I'm one step from you
Devil of prohibition

Spreading it's weight around
Across a hopeless foo
