John Brown's Body - Zion Triad lyrics

Your boots kick up the dust / and they will for maybe a thousand days But will never cover blood / it will remain You have convicted us / but we've committed no crime that you say And you cannot ever stop this flood I guarantee You're so predictable / but you make a critical mistake Can't allow the fear to be our fate And you will feel the touch of the many who you incarcerate They will come in greater number, can't you see? So we come / we can take the battle on Break the back of Babylon / children, won't you sing along? Know the real criminal: they come to you and sell their smiling face Together we will reveal and see So won't you join to beat the ba*tards who betray We can no more live in fear underground for better days We make no noise to keep the dogs where they lay We sing to meditate then lay your powers to waste Ready or not, we come down from the mountain to investigate the story Nothing shake the determination from People bleeding for the zion nation / no, it never fall They become the weaker state and so they call it radical For the poor people / situation now critical Ignorant speaking / still fighting in the media What we're all reaching for / something to deliver us Righteous come to defeat all the beatings of the prisoner Before it's too late We control the party / don't forget the promise This nation rise up and be ready for the challenge Heaven put me here to chase away the disease Tell the tyrannical we'll send you down to hell on your knees So don't you belittle us / earn the trust Or you will fall and return to dust This Triad must rise / please realize We're giving you fair warning Yes, we make the criminal retreat when beaten to their hiding place See them crumble when they come to feel the pain They turn the pressure up / so we keep a lower profile and wait How much longer do we suffer underneath? Who put the barrier in between us where the children play We did / when they came we looked away Are we a warrior? No, we know better than to go that way For survival we make our own society So you speak / shackled to your policy Believe our conspiracy will soon see supremacy So we gonna raise a cup and dedicate to your final days The sun will set on the dreams you seek
