Wind passes right through my skin as I fall down,
This furious speed will only destroy me
Crippling and devastating momentum,
IÔÇÖm 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.
IÔÇÖll 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.
IÔÇÖll barrel towards the earth below;
It's what I was made for.
And everyone will say itÔÇÖs 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.
