Under Influence

[Intro: Al Green] Something that can make you do wrong Make you do right Something that can make you do wrong Make you do right [Verse 1: Cassius] Somethin' that makes me Think about it all the time Always just behind there haunting, messin' up my mind Something that takes me To the place I lose control Where there is no one to hold me Or own my soul I can get crazy Travelin' round too fast to see Hiding just beyond perception, that would be me It's how it makes me Shakes and tingles through my spine Playin' my life by rolling dice Tears to my eyes [Chorus: Cassius and Leroy Burgess] Perception (shining on me) Affection (holding on to me) Obsession (I just can't break free) Perception (shining on me) Possession (holding on to me) Infatuation (I just can't break free) [Bridge: Al Green and Leroy Burgess] Something that can make you do wrong Perception (shining on me) Possession (holding on to me) Something that can make you do wrong Obsession (I just can't break free) Affection (holding on to me) [?], baby [Verse 2: Cassius] It's not the first time Workin' my way against the grain Everyday dreaming, an everlasting stream It's not the last time We all need a second chance Playin' life with bishops and knights On goes the line Why are they trippin' I'm just an average man One alone, sometimes right, sometimes doin' wrong Wherever the four winds May blow me, I will go Only under influence [Chorus: Cassius & Leroy Burgess] Perception (shining on me) Affection (holding on to me) Obsession (I just can't break free) Perception (shining on me) Possession (holding on to me) Infatuation (I just can't break free) [Bridge: Al Green, Cassius and Leroy Burgess] Something that can make you do wrong Perception (shining on me) Possession (holding on to me) Something that can make you do wrong Obsession (I just can't break free) Affection (holding on to me) Something that can make you do wrong Perception (shining on me) Possession (holding on to me) Something that can make you do wrong Make you do right Something that can make you do wrong Make you do right (Can't break free)
