'Peacetime', it is your word, but unto the guns of war, it's your blessings heard.
Glad to meet you thus alone
Glad to meet you thus alone!
Story behind the song
Re a very influential Christian Leader (anybody's guess)
Lyrics
If you insist on prophecy then why is everything the same?
For to you it is just a game, or foolin' for to earn your fame,
When the moon turns black and the sun turns blood,
you'll be running on for cover.
Let the lightning strike this face,
lead me unto some disgrace,
lost my dreams and last my load,
take me now, I won't grow old,
When the day is gone and the deal is done,
I'll be gone with it forever.
Rapid, Rapid why hast thou fall,
Stupid, stupid we are all,
was this where your mind has been,
yes it's true I haven't seen,
When will you ever come to learn,
It is too late you are here to burn in the darkness, in the darkness...
with the beast of burden, with the beast of burden.
This time you are divine but into the end you'll see it's a nightmare real,
Peacetime it is your word but unto the guns of war,
it's your blessings heard,
This time is freedom for to gather everything you eat,
you are all authority, your power is deceit.
Unto all the nations your name is always in their head,
Love to you and love to me, your fingers say you'e the holy one,
the people look up unto you as the one and real head,
they are not aware that they are just being misled,
Beast of burden.
Beast of burden...Beast of burden.
Take us back to the time when we were young and into your government,
You keep us right on your eye, you take our minds and we were the innocent,
Gather all the children and drag them by the hand,
Your face is out there smiling,
but your mind in there is killing.
(Ad lib)
Kill them all and kill them well is an order from below,
rise and shine there's not much time just about your time to go,
They are not aware that they are just being misled, they are in reality, what we call the living dead,
Beast of Burden.
Beast of Burden.
Beast of Burden.
