The Ultimate Sacrifice

 
The children of Israel walked for 40 years on hot desert sand
in search of the promise land

It is human nature to want to reclaim our Paradise Lost
the question is at what cost

History is filled with the stories of charismatic leaders
some who turn out to be soulless bottom feeders

Like Charlie Manson and Jim Jones for power the yearn
only to crash and burn

In the end you better think twice
when they ask you to make the Ultimate Sacrifice
