REVELATIONS
The SCREAMING, The CRIES
Right beneath our EYES
Right beneath our FRUITED PLAINES
Right beneath our SPACIOUS SKIES
On a JET FUELED PLANE THEY CAME!
Enemy in disguise
Different places different times
Bigger weapons bigger crimes
Who to BLAME?
CLEVER, CUNNING, AND KEEN
Then called MAGNIFICENT SIXTEEN
ENEMY UNSEEN
The fighting would BEGIN
ENEMY WITHIN
THE LIGHTNING, THE THUNDER
New WEAPONS made to PLUNDER
The STATES AND THEIR DEMISE?
Martial law KEPT UNDER?
THE OCEANS WOULD RISE
Say the SAGES AND THE WISE
The LATTER DAYS...The HEREAFTER?
BANKS WOULD FALL TO HACKERS
TWAS A DARK, DARK CHAPTER
Oh my God I've NEVER!
BIOTERROR!- Freedom isn't FREE
Just one ERROR- MULTIPLE CITIES!
A scale that was IMMENSE!
- LA, NEW YORK...DC
Refugees in TENTS-
SEEN ON IPHONES AND TVeees'
CATASTROPHIC EVENTS
THE THIRD WORLD WAR
SCREAMS OF REPENT
HEARD RUMORS IGNORED
Oh My God in HEAVEN!
This day I swore I'd SEE
A Triple 911 NINE ELEVEN
Billions would PITY
Your on CENTER STAGE
Satellites way UP HIGH
WE ENTER THE AGE
OF THE ALL SEEING EYE

TIME
IT'S Wick's Burn Fast
AS WE AGE
LET'S Learn IT'S Past
and Heed Each Page
OUR Memories IT Will Hold
BY THE Wind IT'S Blown
OUR History IT Will Mold *
IT'S Stories Told From Young TO OLD
IT'S Tick's, IT'S Tock's...IT'S Tone
IN SCI-FI IT'S A Zone
BY Candles, Clock's AND Watches Shown
Those TWO Hand's
They Come A Knockin'
OR Still IT Stands...BY Cameras Cloned
Some Take A Chance N' Rock IT!
Made FOR MAN TO Understand
IT'S Sometimes Planned
Made BY THE Divine
IT'S IN Demand
It's TIME..
