Cover art for Fantasy lyrics by Earth, Wind & Fire

Sorry religious folk, no deity here. From Maurice, the songwriter's very own words: "The song 'Fantasy' is motivated about escapism in the sense of living on a world that is untrue, a world that is unjust, a world that is very selfish and envious, there is a place that everyone can escape to which is their own fantasy. I had to write the song in the sense of sharing this place with people. It's an escape mechanism."
