Ears pound with the sound
Of the drum beat all around Uninhibited primitives bound about the ground…. Heartbeats pound in the round At the rapture that resounds Evangelical on stage Utters holy sounds Mere mortals see a portal Fall in worship to the ground…. The origins of most faiths can be traced to a single source The Enuma Elish: From the ancient’s lore- scribed on tablets of clay Written in a script known as cuneiform... 5000 years before the creation of our Holy Lord When divine manipulation brought to the fore; Mass indoctrination Many permutations Misinterpretations And declarations of war Clandestine clairvoyance kept chaos in control Exploitation Degradation Kept populations in their role Incantations Damnation Fostered fear for those earthly souls Discrimination of disbelieving heathen pagans Set the course toward their goal Of a world embroiled in hatred First degradation Then extermination While all bow to false virtues that the demon breed extol.... Ears pound with the sound Of the drum beat all around Uninhibited primitives bound about the ground…. Heartbeats pound in the round At the rapture that resounds Evangelical on stage Utters holy sounds Mere mortals see a portal Fall in worship to the ground…. Intolerance toward their intolerance is intangible Though tenacious Some may say... Perhaps outrageous... But outspoken? 'You must be joking' Say the papal shamans ‘We are the Cho-Zen The infallible few Who deal in divine divisiveness While indoctrinating the likes of you With fire and brimstone as your eternal debt Lest ye forget your penance! So noses to the grindstone And mindlessly condone Profit for we prophets At the cost of you and your own Do not free thy sight from afterlife Perfect Paradise or Eternal Night’ Ears pound with the sound Of the drum beat all around Uninhibited primitives bound about the ground…. Heartbeats pound in the round At the rapture that resounds Evangelical on stage Utters holy sounds Mere mortals see a portal Fall in worship to the ground…. © 2010 spence |
