So turns out FFXIV is FULL of potential power songs… - David Lewis - 01-01-2026 So. The head composer of the critically acclaimed MMO Final Fantasy XIV TM is the legendary Masayoshi Soken, an all around badass who frequently writes the Boss themes for the particularly important story moments or characters. A lot of them are (respectfully) more generic battle themes that probably wouldn’t interest Doug’s mage gift. But there are also more than a few that I’m pretty sure would do the opposite, and here’s a list of several and the powers I think they’d grant.  Note these lyrics are all fan-transcribed and not guaranteed to be accurate. (Minor spoilers, no story heavy or endgame content) AAC Heavyweight M4 Theme Everything Burns Feat. Tom Morello & Beartooth Never had a choice, never let the opps win Calm them nerves, got the whole world watchin' Ready, set, go, and there ain't no stoppin' Only one option, light it up Ha! Heart is poundin' out my chest, the blood boils inside of me Lookin' at the walls around me closin' in, I think, "What's it gonna be?" Never had a choice, never let the opps win Calm them nerves, got the whole world watchin' Ready, set, go, and there ain't no stoppin' Got one option, light it up Everything burns Light it up, let's go, light it up, let's go Everything burns Light it up, let's go, light it up, let's go I'm on fire, burnin' brighter than anyone alive I'm way too hot to touch, so just remember if you try Everything burns Everything burns Bones are shakin' out my skin, I got tinglin' in my hands Movin' like a lightning strike, I'm on tonight, so just catch me if you can Never had a choice, never let the opps win Calm them nerves, got the whole world watchin' Ready, set, go, and there ain't no stoppin' Got one option, light it up Everything burns Light it up, let's go, light it up, let's go Everything burns Light it up, let's go, light it up, let's go I'm on fire, burnin' brighter than anyone alive I'm way too hot to touch, so just remember if you try Everything burns Whole house packed, not here to make friends Do or die moment, I love it this tense Who am I takin' out? Thinking you're next And now when the sky turns red, 'cause everything burns 'Cause everything burns Everything burns Light it up, let's go, light it up, let's go Everything burns Light it up, let's go, light it up, let's go I'm on fire, burnin' brighter than anyone alive I'm way too hot to touch, so just remember if you try Everything burns Everything burns Power - A pretty obvious fire manipulation  body of fire song. Sinister - Vamp Fatale Theme Wet blood, fresh blood drippin' on the walls, These screams, they're no dream, they're your curtain call Looking for pleasure, waking up from the pain  here, come get your fill Gotta run, gotta crawl, back into the night Baby hush, what's the rush, got you in my sights Ain't my first time, we'll take it slow yeah Going in for the thrill Now get down on your knees I'm asking please (ON YOUR KNEES) I'm sinister Under your skin, in lace and leather Sinister, don't you know who I am I'll make it better You'll find what sort of master you'll take  You're finally feeling love for who hates Your sin, your soul, misfortune, your pain, For I'll have it all (ALL OF) I will take what I wanna (ALL OF) Cause they'll take all they wanna (WON'T STOP) Don't let me down (WE WON'T) Or I'll chew you up and spit you out (?) No I'll never surrender, (?) Bow before some pretender, (?) Now watch me go (?) And claim my throne Goin hard, goin soft, ain't no onus here Free for all, consensual, I thought I made that clear Ready or not, bottom or top, what you got in mind A little more, I'll give you more, cause the chance is mine Don't be the drones that mind who all diss me I'm a B with an itch to scratch so don't mess with me Lookin to squeal under my heel? Squeeze like this and turn I don't hear no safe word, honey Put down that magazine All eyes on me (OBEY YOUR QUEEN) I'm sinister Under your skin, in lace and leather Sinister, don't you know who I am I'll make it better You'll find you're better off as my slave You're wrapped up helplessly in the chains  Your faith, your freedom, fortune, your fame For I am it all (I AM YOUR ALL!) Here on my own, atop this terrible throne I reach for the stars, Why are they oh so far And so I climb, I leave what's left here behind So some day I'll find, what I want, all I want, I want, I want, after you're gone Power - Either grant Doug the metaphorical control and influencing abilities of a Dominatrix, or maybe turns him into one physically for the song? (Don’t know that Maggie would approve…) (Ramuh: Heritor of Levin Theme) | Final Fantasy XIV Step in from the storm, praise its mercy Let the sting of the rain ne’er stray far from thee Lightning bright, thunder bold Freeing us forevermore Now lift thine heavy head and vanquish thy sorrow Lightning doth strike Thunder doth roll Now turn thy gaze ahead and look to the morrow Lightning shall strike Thunder shall roll on Power - Again, a pretty obvious lighting/thunder control song/  "Bee My Honey" (Honey B. Lovely Theme) with Lyrics | Final Fantasy XIV: Dawntrail Bee is for beauty, obedient and sweet, Bee-ware the sting, of your pitiful defeat, Bee mine forever, and always play your part, Bee-fore it's over, I'll capture your heart. My wings are humming, honey stay a little while, With just a pinch, you'll be delighted and beguiled, I'm not your baby doll, but I can make you smile, No nectar sweeter sweetie, I'll drive you wild. My heart is pure as lace, and laced with purest pride, My frills are wild flowers, begging for your eyes, My lips are poison, and waiting to collide, Come play with me darling, you'll be surprised. This world is a weary place, hum-drum dreary eyed, In all its monotony, I'm buried alive. I want to outshine the stars in the sky, I want to see my name painted in lights, To win your love, I will do just anything, But there's always something more, there's always something more. I'll be the face you'll see on magazines, Fill up my concerts, enthralling the streets, I'll be your idol, your only one, But it's somehow not enough, it can never be enough. Look at me look, I'll take your breath away, You'll pay the price, if you deny me, My throne is here, at the arcadion, Cross me and that's your head. Oh Gods, again, I really should have said, Give, me love, forever just because. I'll be your queen bee Honey B. Lovely, I'll be your one and only champion, I'll be your full-time royal, worship me, Love me again, until the end, I'll be your queen bee Honey B. Lovely, I'll be adored by workers near and far, I'll let you be my lil drone honey, So long as you never cross me, Oh Gods, again, I really should have said, Heed me well, or you're as good as DEAD! Power - Create / Summon  / Control vast swarms of bees and wasps. "Hic Svnt Leones" (Hesperos Theme)  Wild shrieks knife through the deep Natureless creatures perverted and evil From foul nests rise A vermin tide Teeth bared, clawing the air Sin wrapped in sinew the rats do not fear you In slaughter’s keep The piper weeps Jaws slack, mark on your back Here in the valley your Death casts no shadow Seal this fate Come storm the gate Laid bare Picked clean Bred deep In the bones that feed the menagerie Burns hot Burns brief All hope Till there’s nothing left but ash Dark horizons, boiling seas (Pandemonium) From the borders chaos bleeds Savage nobles, cultured thieves (Pandemonium) Here be lions, follow me Dig in, pull back the skin See what’s inside you, the sickness that drives you Beating black Demoniac Pride, greed, in mud thrive these seeds Rotten and reeking the fruits of your making Testify Come take a bite Bite down, blood in the cut Choking on life as your light’s slowly swallowed Fade away Or join the fray Laid bare Picked clean Bred deep In the bones that feed your insanity Unwind Unfold Your mind Till it shatters just like glass Dark horizons, boiling seas (Pandemonium) From the borders chaos bleeds Savage nobles, cultured thieves (Pandemonium) Here be lions, follow me Power - Summon rats, insects and other ‘foul’ creatures as shadowy minions under his control, summon the swarm.
