About the 2 most evil powers on earth - organised religion & government.
Hard-rocking, guitar-driven blues-influenced music.
Note June 2024: All of the songs with a RED guitar picture tag to the left were recorded LIVE over backing tracks created with an Nux Loop Core and an Ammoon Pock-Rock. Glarry GTL semi-hollow tele copy guitar used. Mini digital voice recorder with Shure and Fender mikes captured it all live.
All the songs with yellow guitar picture tag are the previously recorded blues style songs.
These are some songs I started writing and recorded in late 2005, early 2006. I recorded them at home in my loft using cassette machines and a couple of microphones. Pretty barebones stuff. I keep writing and adding new songs as I get the motivation. Life provides lots of that. Check out the videos that I just added, all performed with Crazy Mixed Up World. (see Crazy Mixed up World at reverbnation.com). Songs sound best with headphones.
Story behind the song
Religion divides - Spirituality unites.
Government is just plain evil. EVERY government since the beginning of time has turned on it's own people at some time. Research some history before you criticize my take on it.
Lyrics
FORCES OF EVIL(DP)
(Written by David R. Pankoski Mar 2006)
The ultimate goal is total control, fill your mind & curve your spine.
Since early man their evil plan, shape your life war & strife.
Holy rites sacred sites, Pagan acts distorted facts.
Houses divided opposition derided, Holy trilogy manifest destiny.
Mispent youth pagan truth, Fools tithing evil force arising.
Forces of evil unholy friends, one or another is mankinds end.
To divide & conquer is their common goal, factions apart - much stronger when whole.
Polarize men to choose a side, occupy their time while their evils they hide.
Choose your side wrong or right, Trivial issues futile fights.
Holy lands endless wars, Holy revenge to settle the score.
Jihad or crusade election or debate, Results the same solutions too late.
Devout secular fundamentalist truth, constitution rights laws & statutes.
Evangelicals prophets pilgrims & popes, mankind foolishly harbors false hopes.
Parliament kings & presidents, do as they please until our money’s spent.
Falsehoods ordained in holy books, disingenuous fables for truths mistook.
Words of quran torah & bible, pagan dieties & unholy libel.
Books full of words mankinds end, the unholy bearers not humankinds friends.
Two forces of evil they inhabit our world, They don’t have to hide, their message universal.
Two forces of evil unholy endeavour, Self-sustaining to go on forever
Two forces of evil their unholy script, Mankinds enemy our identities stripped.
Two forces of evil world government, Humankind unaware their futures been spent
Two forces of evil create earthly laws, We’ve been blinded cant see the flaws.
Two forces of evil rule taking our rights, Steal your life like diseased blight.
Two forces of evil corrupting all, Two forces of evil in time will fall.
