Squeeze - Steve Camp

I see the Hollywood in your eyes

You hide behind the things that money buys

You love the power, you love control

Ah, you step on people 'cause you want it all

Don’t you know the world will tease you

It will seize you

It will squeeze you until you’re into its mold

The world was a very good friend of mine

It promised everything I wanted in life

Oh, it came to me with its passion and gold

I bought it for a while, it nearly cost me my soul

Don’t you know the world will tease you

It will seize you

It will squeeze you, pour you into its mold

Don’t you know the world will tease you

It will seize you

It will squeeze you until you’re into its mold

Generation in temptation

Oh, don’t you realize your situation

But be of good cheer, Jesus Christ is here

And He overcame, oh, the world you fear

Once a week you go to church just to escape

You get your spiritual fix, now you think you’re safe

Oh, be transformed by renewing your mind

You’ve got to live like Jesus on the firing line

Don’t you know the world will tease you

Oh, it will seize you

It will squeeze you until you’re into its mold

The world will tease you

It will seize you

Oh, don’t let it squeeze you

Until you’re lifeless and cold, no, no

Oh, the world

Don’t let it take you now

It looks so nice to you now

But it will tease you, seize you

Until it squeezes you

And then you’ve lost your soul

You’ve got that Hollywood in your eyes

It looks so nice but it’s just a disguise
