Pleasures Of The World Illusion by Milan Parmar Lyrics
[Intro: Srila Prabhupada & Milan Parmar]
(Cassette tape forwarding)
(Srila Prabhupada)
But he's also thinking that I am happy
This is called maya, this is called illusion
Everyone is thinking that I am very happy
Although this body, this material body means suffering
(Cassette tape forwarding)
(Milan Parmar)
Sing to it right
Just know that illusion will stand tall tonight
X2
[Verse 1: Milan Parmar]
I'm on a globe where confusion seems to be everything
Illusion is about the only mantra that many sing
And I'm a fallen soul
So I will follow those
I call prime ministers, teachers, friends, brothers and sisters
Picture
Me on any day with time to waste
And belief in a system that does not praise
You unless you make
A million and then some in your choice of western currency
I'm made to feel money is the only thing best for me
Yup
Rest assured
For girls to buy the finest dress in store
For man to drive a timeless porsche
For me to rise my bank rewards
They say, "Worldly riches is the only way you're recognised"
They implant into my subconscious I won't fit in otherwise
Why?
[Chorus: Milan Parmar & Sobia Khan]
Ignorance bring
Blindness is all we sing
It's my pride that fight for no win
Booyakah Booyakah
My mind a' tumbling
Come again
Illusory ocean I choose to be in
Go
X2
[Verse 2: Milan Parmar]
Let me say first of all
Well it wouldn't be sensible
Living in a world that's ostensible
From the time that you start to crawl
Four walls that paint pictures vivid enough
Telling you that you stand tough
And building ego's a must
That's like turning gold into dust
Intoxications and getting wasted
Is perfect relations for a nation
That made us basic
They laid us
Regulations and rules
That paved us a fool
Education from schools
With no valuable jewels
Still expect us to have something to prove
I'm convinced that every living being can relate to this
Finding somewhat happiness within a tainted glitch
Every man, woman and child are addicted to false relationships
We're all afloat on unholy waters, how long until you save your ship?
People starving and barely breathing
Forced in an economic state that no one believes in
What are we achieving?
Go one step forward, ten steps back is our only motion
Guess a naive filled mind and heart is our only notion
[Chorus: Milan Parmar & Sobia Khan]
Ignorance bring
Blindness is all we sing
It's my pride that fight for no win
Booyakah Booyakah
My mind a' tumbling
Come again
Illusory ocean I choose to be in
Go
X2
[Bridge]
Sing to it right
Just know that illusion will stand tall tonight
X2
[Verse 3: Sobia Khan]
I wonder for days
When is life gonna' change?
And in how many ways
I'm being set back by this deceiving place
Find it hard to see from what I call reality
So ignorance is the only thing that I have in me
To say I'm king
I'm G.O.D
It's only worth it
To be working
For my B.O.D.Y
Oh why am I?
Falling victim to a system with false missions yeah
A position with no definition of living yeah
Temporary
It's all temporary
It's a fools paradise and we all live it so merry
Raised with the consciousness of no consciousness
Tryna' live life the best but it's often said
[Chorus: Milan Parmar & Sobia Khan]
Ignorance bring
Blindness is all we sing
It's my pride that fight for no win
Booyakah Booyakah
My mind a' tumbling
Come again
Illusory ocean I choose to be in
Go
X2
[Outro: Srila Prabhupada]

(Srila Prabhupada)
Every conditioned soul is subjected to fearfulness, "what will happen next?"
(Cassette tape forwarding)
(Cassette tape forwarding)
