The Sermon by Bloody Caesar

to turn your back was not enough
you turned against by a breach of trust
i know the fear that guides your hand
but to let it rule i'll never understand

no! your selfish actions
made you a turncoat servant of our oppressors
no! you can't keep your distance
our prison cells are the consequences

you've made a choice, can you live with it?
to crack their whips, to bind our chains
you were my friend, you had a name
is donkey all that remains?

is there a thirst for freedom left inside
beneath the fear, the hurt, the lies?
a chance to rise again as ape
is it too late?

no! we may be broken
but side by side the option's open
no! it's ours to say
we may have knelt but we'll never pray

for greed, the sermon's spread
it had a start, it'll have an end
by fear, the sermon's spread
it had a start, it'll have an end
for greed, the sermon's spread
it had a start, it'll have an end
by fear, the sermon's spread
it's time we put it to rest

cleared out mountains poisoned land
oppression spread by human hands

they raise their cities like sowing seeds
a putrid waste laid aimlessly

it has its borders it has its gaps
from the shadows we must attack

the time for mercy has come and gone
our barricades are growing strong
