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
