Powerful Man Video (MV)

Oh simple citizens surround me
And hear my voice, call my name
I have finally found the road to glory
But there were bumps along the way
All went according to plan
They believe anything I tell them
On the screen I see myself
Speaking words somebody wrote down for me
Carefully spoken, everything in place
Nothing left to chance
For this powerful man
I don't have a perfect memory
And I won't pretend I remember everything
I am sorry but I must be going
I'm a busy man with important friends
You wouldn't understand
And I wouldn't know where to begin
No time for romance
For the powerful man that I am
Rented a hotel ballroom
Out to myself
So I could sit in the darkness and think
Swallowed my pride
And for a while I cried
In spite of all of their laughing and jeers
'Cause I's just a man ain't I
And I does all I can do
So why ain't that enough for you all
I feel the walls closing in around me
Cameras flashing
Lighting up my face
Is this the new ending to my story
And will I get a window
To watch my fall from grace
My world went up in flames
And no buildings were built in my name
They crumbled in my hands
But I is still a powerful man
I am
