Temptation of Knowledge
Hide your face from the passerby
Inside you find it strange
You seldom see it fit to greet them
Then with the stroke of lust
You see no difference
Between them and us
You're an entity
Breathing with purpose and worth
Few among us attempt to see
All of our beauty
How I dismiss from my mind
The vile ones around us
What an act they put on for us
They're just lost little children inside
Their only hope to survive
Is tricking us into believing they're God
They are not God
Just subpar frauds
Show me your guts little one
Will you retreat?
Accept your defeat?
Fight for what's right
Or continue to run?
Plant your feet firm in the ground
No one respects a coward
Then with the stroke of lust
You see no difference
Between them and us
Long live the kingdom
And sacrifice your king
Long live the kingdom
Now sacrifice your king
Bring him to his knees
And sacrifice your king
Bring him to his knees
Just to feel the glory
I never liked this part
Only loved what it gave
But it's harder to tear apart
Then to mend what we've made
We're all infected
With the craving
Of being dark
No, we can't run
I'd rather starve
Plant your feet firm in the ground
We're going home now
We lift our heads
Unearthing the truth to grow
Fostering this place
That we will call home
I'm not afraid to see where we will go
We're going home now
Inside you find it strange
You seldom see it fit to greet them
Then with the stroke of lust
You see no difference
Between them and us
You're an entity
Breathing with purpose and worth
Few among us attempt to see
All of our beauty
How I dismiss from my mind
The vile ones around us
What an act they put on for us
They're just lost little children inside
Their only hope to survive
Is tricking us into believing they're God
They are not God
Just subpar frauds
Show me your guts little one
Will you retreat?
Accept your defeat?
Fight for what's right
Or continue to run?
Plant your feet firm in the ground
No one respects a coward
Then with the stroke of lust
You see no difference
Between them and us
Long live the kingdom
And sacrifice your king
Long live the kingdom
Now sacrifice your king
Bring him to his knees
And sacrifice your king
Bring him to his knees
Just to feel the glory
I never liked this part
Only loved what it gave
But it's harder to tear apart
Then to mend what we've made
We're all infected
With the craving
Of being dark
No, we can't run
I'd rather starve
Plant your feet firm in the ground
We're going home now
We lift our heads
Unearthing the truth to grow
Fostering this place
That we will call home
I'm not afraid to see where we will go
We're going home now
