lyrics

I stood above the ground
The same one that'd hold me down
When they took my bones
Chained me to my hometown
When real long was my life
And i'd seen the end of some terrible times
Seen the exchange for light with black dimes

I’d recall the change of hands
When no two sides argue theirs on a stand
Just a party of those who want the best for all of em
For only others you prayed
And you married whatever love came your way
No one else has a god damn thing to say
That day

And the days when i took ill
The ones i paid to insure will collect the bills
All the checks i send you know that they will
So they will
I’d seen the rapture begin
When the church of love is the only one that's left
Long stripped away were hate and judgements
That had been

when those who love to cook will feed
those who love to hunt will provide all their meat
those who want to repair will take care when you bleed
and when you need
