Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Rust to dust, us to them
Change your mind, change your skin
Life to death, weak to strength
Cash a check, change your sex
[Verse 2]
Day to night, dark to light
Hard to soft, on to off
Push to shove, hate to love
In and out, it's all about
Transformation
[Verse 3]
Wet to dry, born to die
Yin or yang, pleasure or pain
Good to bad, crazy or sane
Hey, you make the rules, you got to play the game
[Verse 4]
Fist to glove, lose or win
You live a life of sin then you're born again
Trash to art, heart to heart
Oh, big or small, we're all a part 'cause they're just
[Verse 5]
Transformations
Variations
Alternations
Deviations
You know, mother nature rules us all
[Verse 6]
I move and I go
In time, fast or slow
I move through doors
Each time there's some more
[Verse 7]
They're just transformations
Variations
Alternations
Deviations
You know, mother nature, mother nature rules us all
[Verse 8]
I move through doors
Each time there's some more
[Verse 9]
Sometimes you do, sometimes you don't
Oh, some people will, some people won't
Love to hate, karma or fate
What goes around will come back around
[Verse 10]
Beginning to end, we are all born
To lose or win, rose to a thorn
Standing up or falling down
Silence always pleases sound
[Verse 11]
It's just transformations
Variations
Alternations
Deviations
Oh, mother nature rules us all
Mother nature rules us all
Ooh, mother nature rules us all
