The Hidden Ape Revealed

Under thee lids there sleeps the truth 
now I see a climate change occur
Where twisted merchants betray God 

Selling false faces denies the sixth promoting killing 
along with a few other numbers written on stone
corrupt unholy the governments of countries have become 

Stealing has become normal justice lies spill 
from snakes without a backbone the whole system has become infested 
so many rats eating from our treasuries hounds taking their pounds of flesh 

From elderly to the poor they are each branded to turn eyes 
around facts where chains have been applied as we all become beggars 
and all we ever hear about is misery and war
