Zero Hour - Voice Of Reason lyrics

I hear that voice calling once again With visions of yesteryear and rivers of blood they shed The times have changed but I'm steadfast For a reign of terror the outcasts Will be used against themselves through ignorance and lies And so in hate my numbers grow and soon all the world will know A twisted universal mind a mind like mine Back to a time when I was young a father tells an only son You are the chosen one And as I grew so did my hate to cleanse the land became my fate I became the gun If the child grows knowing only what it's told Then the man can learn only as his history unfolds The roots of hatred we don't always see and so are left to grow Fear begins in ones center and when allowed to flow Will cast ripples upon still waters destroying all it knows The disenfranchised will brutalize those who are not the same The immigrants and infidels will be the pawn in their game And they will use you against yourself through ignorance and lies Hear that voice once again tie the borders We need some order take a stand So the politicians reach the white man With loaded words a foot on the bible and rifle in their hands Return to a time when you were young When love lit your way And all your troubles amounted to none But who could who could say But still do we really ever understand how we can love the child But crucify the man And do we ever really see that "I could have been him and he could have been me" Remember a time when you were young When love cradled the day And you did not know the difference between right and wrong So who led who led the way Now will you be the voice of reason when there's none Who will who will sing it's song I will [Music: J.
