lyrics
You're an egalitarian who won't give me a chance
And I don't mean to sound crass
But your "equality" can kiss my ass
You scoff at God with every stance
You laugh me off without a glance
But before you go to dance your dance
You should know, you know I know
You stripped the universe of God
Convinced the masses of your fraud
Retained that sense of awe they sought
To get exactly what you want
And I don't know how I'll fight this fight
Or reexplain a wrong from right
Because my language is corrupt
For some want power more than love
My words are razor sharp
Running straight across your heart
And I'm still deadly with a weapon
If you're pushing me too far
So now you're warned
I won't hesitate to finish what you start
And leave you stranded with my sugar
In the gas tank of your car
And now you beg for my mercy
But you're not one to ask
Forgiveness was a gift from the God you killed
Please don't make me laugh
We're in a different world now
One you thought would be great
But as the dust settles down
You see the root's not love, but hate
And still you beg for my mercy
But you're still not one for help
Forgiveness was a gift from the God you killed
You brought this on yourself
We're in a different world now
One that you helped create
But since the dust has settled down
You see the cost
No love, just hate
And I don't mean to sound crass
But your "equality" can kiss my ass
You scoff at God with every stance
You laugh me off without a glance
But before you go to dance your dance
You should know, you know I know
You stripped the universe of God
Convinced the masses of your fraud
Retained that sense of awe they sought
To get exactly what you want
And I don't know how I'll fight this fight
Or reexplain a wrong from right
Because my language is corrupt
For some want power more than love
My words are razor sharp
Running straight across your heart
And I'm still deadly with a weapon
If you're pushing me too far
So now you're warned
I won't hesitate to finish what you start
And leave you stranded with my sugar
In the gas tank of your car
And now you beg for my mercy
But you're not one to ask
Forgiveness was a gift from the God you killed
Please don't make me laugh
We're in a different world now
One you thought would be great
But as the dust settles down
You see the root's not love, but hate
And still you beg for my mercy
But you're still not one for help
Forgiveness was a gift from the God you killed
You brought this on yourself
We're in a different world now
One that you helped create
But since the dust has settled down
You see the cost
No love, just hate
