False Profit
Lyrics
This place seems so absurd
This conman promises the skies
These suckers eat up every word
And imagine my surprise
When as I take a look around
I see the hope inside their eyes
And now they miss the facts of where we are
Because they resent the truth
They sit there and they choke some more
And I can't take this shit
I tried to disagree
I tried to warn the shepherd's sheep
But then they went and turned on me
Imagine all his lies
The pulpit bullshit that he spat
To keep their hopes so centralized
He preys on fear of death
He calls it "love"
And he views them all as weak
He breaks them all to fit his mold
And I can't take this shit
I know that he's a "godsend"
I know that he's a "good man"
But he finds "salvation"
In the backseat of his mistress's car
And he likes to tell his jokes
At the expense of common folk
And he laughs at all your problems
Because he stole his way out of his own
How do you not see
That you follow a thief?
The devil leads the blind
And that's apparent to me
But I came to watch his empire burn
Because this place seems so absurd
And I won't take this shit
This place seems so absurd
This conman promises the skies
These suckers eat up every word
And imagine my surprise
When as I take a look around
I see the hope inside their eyes
And now they miss the facts of where we are
Because they resent the truth
They sit there and they choke some more
And I can't take this shit
I tried to disagree
I tried to warn the shepherd's sheep
But then they went and turned on me
Imagine all his lies
The pulpit bullshit that he spat
To keep their hopes so centralized
He preys on fear of death
He calls it "love"
And he views them all as weak
He breaks them all to fit his mold
And I can't take this shit
I know that he's a "godsend"
I know that he's a "good man"
But he finds "salvation"
In the backseat of his mistress's car
And he likes to tell his jokes
At the expense of common folk
And he laughs at all your problems
Because he stole his way out of his own
How do you not see
That you follow a thief?
The devil leads the blind
And that's apparent to me
But I came to watch his empire burn
Because this place seems so absurd
And I won't take this shit
