Cult Of Personality Lyrics By Living Colour

    malcolm x
    and during the few moments that we have left we want to talk right down to earth in a language that everybody here can easily understand

    look in my eyes what do you see
    the cult of personality
    i know your anger i know your dreams
    i’ve been everything you wanna be oh
    i’m the cult of personality
    like mussolini and kennedy
    i’m the cult of personality the cult of personality
    the cult of personality

    neon lights nobel prize
    when a mirror speaks the reflection lies
    you won’t have to follow me
    only you can set me free

    i sell the things you need to be
    i’m the smiling face of your tv oh
    i’m the cult of personality
    i exploit you still you love me
    i tell you one and one makes three oh
    i’m the cult of personality
    like joseph stalin and gandhi oh
    i’m the cult of personality the cult of personality
    the cult of personality

    neon lights nobel prize
    when a leader speaks that leader dies
    he won’t have to follow me
    only you can set you free

    you gave me fortune you gave me fame
    you gave me power in your god’s name
    i’m every person you need to be
    oh i’m the cult of per so na lity
    i am the cult of i am the cult of i am the cult of i am the cult of
    i am the cult of i am the cult of i am the cult of i am the cult of
    personality

    spoken john f kennedy franklin d roosevelt
    ask not what your country can do for you
    the only thing we have to fear is fear itself
