story behind the song: the easy acronym ISIS supplanting the original god mother, their suspiciously easy acquisition of armament and i wonder who sells the ammunition ... not to mention the old divide and conquer ploy, "money changes everything" [Cyndi Lauper] applies to just that.
Lyrics
looking for those answers
to figure out the crimes
reading all the papers
trying to read his mind
looking to the heavens
as he ransoms off the signs
if there is a reason
its the power of his lies
but what do i know?
never the right questions
the meanings redefined
power of suggestions
empowering in kind
all those lives in pictures
photoshopped to rhymes
histories are fixtures
replace them all in time
but what do i know?
i'd like to buhlieve
even wanted to
confessing misdeeds
keeps my heart true
i'd like to buhlieve
i wanted to
but all i see
is the truth about you
classes in confusion
cause the god's the same
and they're always killing
in their father's name
freedom to the people
that's his private joke
life is never dull
selling bullets now like coke
but what do i know?
religions have their martyrs
believers have their saints
all this getting smarter
seems we really ain't
lying ate the christians
muslims and the jews
Father never saved them
likes to watch its true
i'd like to buhlieve
i wanted to
but all i see
is the truth about you
i'd like to buhlieve
i wanted too ...
