Saving Your Souls, Taking Your Money
Saving your souls, Taking your money
Preying on my faith,
driven by desire
they eyes glimmer divine self esteem
representing the will they contemplate of a holy sire.
Stating their beliefs reflecting their own gain.
Proving somehow for the greater good.
Questioning their motives could drive you insane.
You will only end up misunderstood.
The truth they distort
their reaches exceed any self control
signs that implement a coorparate agenda
which they brand salvation for us all.
eyeing the people
vulnerable and victimized
by this legal system
with goals, only the rich, realize.
threatening us with prophecies
to which even our imagination screams.
and blinding us with treasures
beyond our wildest dreams.
And then who still believe
give up their lively goal and intentions
to a mere game of monetary profit and loss
so they will acquire wealth beyond their earthly possessions.
So whatever in the end you will find
gratification or lies.
Did your prayers fall on deaf ears?
you will never leave a sign
