Lyrics
Every day I pray for mankind We're all slaves to a generation socialized and sickness is in the mind We are habitual thinkers, substance abusers, and habitual drinkers But free your mind because the plug is watching from the top floor, hoping you too would fall for the illusions of a temporary high When we think, we need to get by But are we really trying when kids are dying and depression is trending? Are these the signs of an Armageddon? We're all in denial and it's all cool until you're suicidal We never learn from our so-called idols We're just repeating the cycle so- I never read the news anymore, it's hard not to feel hopeless When no one noticed, the explosion came from a man who's legal gun was loaded It's all watered down and sugarcoated We voted but did we really get to chose? We don't need proof that they separate us from the truth Mothers and fathers are being separated from their youth And they're selling the American Dream and what it appears to be But they don't teach us that wealth is unattainable with their currency History, is not my brother's story The original founders were buried in the ground where men have planted seeds of disease And they've justified being thieves Feeding their inner demons and blaming the minorities It's a World War III, corruption versus greed Not you versus me But do we ever think, of the need for inner peace? They can't put a price on your soul, it don't matter your religion, right and wrong is something everybody knows They pick and choose what's equal Who's good and who's evil And this is the devil's world but the Lord is coming for his people We're like Daniel in the den Surrounded by these hungry lions Looking in the jaws of death We reach for saving hands No help will come from man The Lord is coming All you people of the land Down beneath the weight of all your sorrows Turn around while you still can There's no guarantee you'll see tomorrow The doors are open wide Surrender to the light The Lord is coming Coming, coming Hurry, hurry Bring us to the promise land Oh glory, glory, we'll reach for saving hands No help will come from man The Lord is coming See, I know how it feels in a late night Swimming with the great whites Drowning in the deep waters Know you got three daughters Could use some resources, nah We just need order I got my own bad news, forget a reporter Man, we ain't even safe, they wanna deport us Or, rather keep us boxed in on the street corners You gon stop and frisk a n****, man, at least warn us My dawg still on probation, they got a leash on us Far from stupid, in fact, I'm smarter than Harvard students Sparked a movement and put an end to this garbage music Got me thinking like this can't be life Man, y'all idiots, y'all voted for the Antichrist Living in this false reality It's in this picture gallery Based on a person's profile We guess their salary Lifestyle desensitized, quite strategized Make a minimal amount and then we maximize Y'all people capping with lies, how they capitalize Creating their own perception, what a ma**ive facade Digital marketing schemes, even broader regime Live how you want on the internet, who thought of this thing? Now I'm a new man, need to find a new plan God bless America, God bless Sudan Now I'm a new man, need to find a new plan God bless America, and God bless Sudan Oh glory, glory, we'll reach for saving hands No help will come from man The Lord is coming The Lord is coming
