Israel the Myth

I'm Israel
for once I was real
now I'm nothing but a living hell
the ruthless child and his deceiving spell 
once upon an Israel
now the eye in the capstone 
wants your palestinian home 
yet you can't escape my tribulation appeal
i disappeared leaving an ancient zest
I'm an internal quest
yet you battle for the impossible to manifest
you never listened ,you never believed
now rolling in my grave while you're being deceived
my destroyers were gutting the earth
eastern europeans to middle eastern Israelites giving birth 
where else can you say shalom while stealing and destroying homes 
hidden sigils ,books for crooks
conjuring and invoking 
the hermaphrodite is giving my fake rebirth
ushering the two nations myth 
while all serves the congregation
setting the promise land
but Him never built castles of sand
as you're all taking the stamp
wait for your fake black hoofed lamp.
