Evangelist you claim god speaks through you,
|
Your restless mouth full of lies gains popularity.
|
You care not for the old that suffer,
|
When empty pockets cry from hunger.
|
|
Penniless from their generosity,
|
Sharing their money to quench your greed.
|
Searching for the answer to their prayers
|
They cry their last wish of need.
|
Save me.
|
|
His spirit lives and breathes in me.
|
The almighty transformed to your screen.
|
The meanings lost in its translation,
|
No holy words, describe his deception.
|
|
You say you'll help us find the lord,
|
Tell me preacher how do you know
|
A simple quest for a visible savior,
|
To lead us through our final prayer.
|
Save me.
|
|
Send your donations,
|
Contribute to the cause.
|
Luxuries,
|
Your righteous reward?
|
|
Praise the lord, praise god,
|
Is what you wish to sell.
|
There is no heaven without a hell.
|
|
In your mind's eye could you truly believe,
|
That by giving you can save your soul,
|
Could you be so naive!
|
You heal the sick,[you] raise the dead,
|
You blind the congregation
|
With the things you say.
|
|
Religious blackmail a deceit of trust,
|
That death will come and all will be lost.
|
|
Can you hear the serpents call,
|
Look deep in those deceiving eyes.
|
Ignore the writing on the wall,
|
You should read between the lies.
|
|
When doubt subsides his honesty,
|
An inquiry, is it blasphemy?
|
Impure the soul, that's made to suffer,
|
No sermons left to hide or cover,
|
An empty promise, lie unfulfilled,
|
To steal a dream or get it killed.
|
They claim your trip to heavens nearby,
|
You may believe it but satan wouldn't lie
