Institutions Of Deceit

Disgraceful, the evil done by false prophets in God's name

Profit from intimidating poor, lost souls into the flock

Selling a grand facade, pompous posturing in vain

Reinforce spiritual weakness, insecurity

Forgotten essential, freedom of choice

All goodness is discarded, kindness affected

Right or wrong, coerce the congregation mob

To abide your tumid words, the only god they know

Selective agenda with no foundation in truth

Corruption, stumbling block, ruined credibility

Vulgar salesmen growing fat, lies you tell consume your sheep

Crucify the innocent, absolve yourself with dollar bills

Self-righteous, presuming, cast stones of hypocrisy

Impose your nauseating, senseless fantasy

Built on payment, not contrition, speciously redeemed

Iniquity, punishment on anyone who disobeys

Forgotten essential, the freedom of choice

All goodness is discarded, kindness affected

Selling out redemption you will never grasp

Disgrace all men of faith

Self-righteous, presuming, cast stones of hypocrisy

Impose your nauseating, senseless fantasy

Built on payment, not contrition, speciously redeemed

Iniquity, punishment on anyone who disobeys

Unwillingness to accept reality

Myopic grip on the words of men

Blind loyalty without faith, service to an institution

Betraying trust, and our liberty

Sin of greater depth than those you would save

Blaming tragedy on our intolerance

You spent your life as a sordid pharisee

Unjust, don't be shocked when you're barred from Paradise
