Illusion Lyrics

[Intro: Wyclef Jean, (Kelly)]
Went from a dream to the young Supreme
(Hey, yeah, woo, ooh)

[Verse 1: Kelly]
I'm searching for a destiny that's mine
There's another place, another time
Touching many hearts along the way, yeah
Hopin' that I'll never have to say

[Pre-Chorus: LaTavia]
Boy, I love you, but I gotta let you go

[Chorus: Beyoncé, (Kelly)]
Every day in my mind is confusion (Baby)
Thoughts of you bring illusions (Oh, oh)
Trapped in my world but only you get in
My mind's playing tricks on me again (Again, again)
Daze in my mind, it's confusion (Confusion)
Thoughts of you bring illusions
Trapped in my world, only you get in
My mind's playing tricks on me again (Oh)

[Verse 2: Beyoncé]
Follow your emotions everywhere
Is there really magic in the air?
Never let your feelings let you down
Open up your eyes and look around
[Pre-Chorus: LaTavia]
Boy, I love you, but I gotta let you go

[Chorus: Beyoncé, Kelly]
Every day in my mind is confusion (Baby)
Thoughts of you bring illusions (Oh, oh)
Trapped in my world but only you get in
My mind's playing tricks on me again
Daze in my mind, it's confusion (Hey, ay)
Thoughts of you bring illusions (Oh)
Trapped in my world, only you get in
My mind's playing tricks on me again (On me again)

[Verse 3: Beyoncé]
Can it be a picture in my mind?
I'm never sure exactly what I'll find
Only in my dreams, I'll turn you on
Here for just a moment, then you're gone

[Pre-Chorus: LaTavia]
Boy, I love you, but I gotta let you go

[Chorus: Beyoncé, (Kelly)]
Every day in my mind is confusion (Baby)
Thoughts of you bring illusions (Oh, oh)
Trapped in my world but only you get in
My mind's playing tricks on me again (Again, again)
Daze in my mind, it's confusion
Thoughts of you bring illusions
Trapped in my world, only you get in (Oh, oh, oh, oh)
My mind's playing tricks on me again (Yeah)
[Verse 4: Pras]
Yeah, yo, yo
Ayo, I don't write love songs, leave it up to Luther Vandross
How I choose to live, you don't wanna know the cost
I pay to be the boss, hear it straight from the source
Fortune 500 is how I like to gloss
High side, Korneesh Style, joy ride
Blowin' candles in the wind like Princess Di
Get at me, mom, tell me how you really like it
'Cause we could fly high, I'll be your co-pilot

[Verse 5: LaTavia, Pras, (Beyoncé)]
Ayo, back to the girl with all the razzamatazz
Ayo, I love you, shorty
You talkin' all that jazz (Oh, oh, baby)
Boy, I love you, but I gotta let you go (Oh, oh, baby)
I know you want me but you play me like the Lotto (Oh, oh, baby)
Usin', abusin', so there won't be no friction
I gotta leave, I can't be in this illusion (Ah)
(Whoa, oh, it's just an illusion)

[Chorus: Beyoncé]
Every day in my mind is confusion
Thoughts of you bring illusions
Trapped in my world but only you get in
My mind's playing tricks on me again
Daze in my mind, it's confusion (Oh)
Thoughts of you bring illusions
Trapped in my world, only you get in (Hey)
My mind's playing tricks on me again
[Outro: Wyclef Jean, Beyoncé]
Another one from Wyclef
Another one from Jerry Wonder
Another one from Dirty Cash
Dance, I say
Dance, I say, ha-ha
(Confusion)
Refugee Camp
(Illusion, you get in)
Destiny's Child
(Me again)
We out
Daze in my mind, it's confusion (Me again, me again)
Thoughts of you bring illusions (Me again, me again)
Trapped in my world, only you get in
My mind's playing tricks on me again

Went from a dream to the young Supreme
Went from a dream to the young Supreme

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
