THE SHIFT

The stench of death has filled the street

The sons and daughters that will bleed

A taste of hell with streets of gold

We think we won, but they have us fooled

With serpent lies, shown bright and bold

For the ones who trust, are the ones they mold

Ignore your God

And watch hell unfold

Is there really a God

Is it really a hoax

Is it all a facade

Is there really a hope

Are we wasting our time

Or are we wasting our souls

We're going down, down, down

We're going down, down, down

So pray

To the golden

Cattle they bought

With our blood

They'd sell out their souls

For a paycheck

Aren't you done?

We're going down, down, down

We're going down, down, down

Watch them feed on

Lies they've sowed

Feed me please

I beg to know

It's shifting now

Watch us burn the cities down

Watch the cattle melt

Eat the gold in pounds

We've been led astray

We've been pushed around
