Lyrics:
My Lord now, what have you become?
A servant to the mighty dollar bill
Absolution to the masses for a price
Frightened sheep forgetting how to feel
"I will call for a sword against him on all my mountains
Every man's sword will be against his brother
...With pestilence and with blood I will enter into judgment"
(Ezekiel 38: 21-22)
This is the sales pitch for tomorrows war
A cycle of violence and profit to leave the world sore
Black golden sermon pushing for another taste
When angels are paid for, the prophet gets greedy
And Babylon awaits
A headline down the throat used to cement control
An enemy called out to avert the eyes
A promise of a better world to sweeten the pill
A trickle down of wealth that only knows how to climb
Shortsighted power backed up by zealot hate
A pattern that repeats itself and never tires
With one way tracks laid down in a loop
Both ends are bound to end up on fire
la panim :)
