Cannonball lyrics

Wind passes right through my skin as I fall down,
This furious speed will only destroy me…
Crippling and devastating momentum,
I’m approaching maximum velocity.
And this is how it`s going to be, the point of it all,
`Cause this is what was meant for me, recklessly I fall.

Hulking, smashing, I come crashing,
Nothing like when I was small.
I am unstoppable; I am the cannonball.
That feeble coward that you knew,
Has undergone an overhaul,
I am unstoppable; I am the cannonball.

Thirty-two feet per second I increase,
As the exponents will multiply.
I’ll never stop to look back behind me,
Cutting through the bright blue sky.
And this is how it`s meant to be; un-tethered I will soar.
I’ll barrel towards the earth below;
It`s what I was made for.

And everyone will say it’s just an accident,
Like some mishap or a tragedy.
I think that failure has a purpose,
And I don`t believe its chance if I fall.
And I know that if I ever do fall, he will catch me.
And if he ever lets me fall down,
For the good of those who believe him,
He will make me into a cannonball.
Unblemished, and faultless,
A burning luminescence.
Unequalled precision, beyond your scope of vision.
Cannonball.
