Holy Slaves.
None of you can see
That the gov'nt has control on thee
By threats of torture and pain
For all those who disobey
Higher powers you are forced to believe
If not then you're burned for blasphemy
A sick, twisted game they play
With the minds of the well-behaved
Good intentions were not a thing
When they began the brainwashing
Those who dare speak with reason
Are tormented publicly for treason
Causing fear to gain control
It's their one and only goal
Kill for this and that
It doesn't matter where you're at
Fights upon fights
Deaths have reached new heights
You've been brainwashed with lies
Blindly adhering to a man in the skies
No real proof of his mighty grace
Just hopes to get past the pearly gates
For fear of what comes next
You follow a concept so multiplexed
You don't fully understand
That you put your life in another's hand
Following a belief of eternal salvation
By a man's plan for world subjugation
But you teach your kids about this savior
They think you're doing them a favor
Now they follow because you told them to
And they love this man more than you
But shortly death will do it's part
Because of a war that must be fought
A fight over land begins
For a free ticket from Him to let you in
Fighting for reasons you don't know why
Just for the man in the sky
Completely dependent on this mighty being
You're simply not seeing
Tragedy awaits for you in a later fate
Because you can't carry your own weight
Now you've truely lost
Was your life worth the cost?
That the gov'nt has control on thee
By threats of torture and pain
For all those who disobey
Higher powers you are forced to believe
If not then you're burned for blasphemy
A sick, twisted game they play
With the minds of the well-behaved
Good intentions were not a thing
When they began the brainwashing
Those who dare speak with reason
Are tormented publicly for treason
Causing fear to gain control
It's their one and only goal
Kill for this and that
It doesn't matter where you're at
Fights upon fights
Deaths have reached new heights
You've been brainwashed with lies
Blindly adhering to a man in the skies
No real proof of his mighty grace
Just hopes to get past the pearly gates
For fear of what comes next
You follow a concept so multiplexed
You don't fully understand
That you put your life in another's hand
Following a belief of eternal salvation
By a man's plan for world subjugation
But you teach your kids about this savior
