L.J. - P.O.M. lyrics

[Intro/Hook: Jesse Hughes & Monk] I ask That you would give me my peace of mind I ask That you would give me my peace of mind I ask That you would give me my peace of mind Before I go and give you a piece of mine [Verse 1: Jesse Hughes] Here this prophecy, remember all the words within What I speak is truth, I'm trying to help who's born of sin Rumors about war and famine, now the time's at hand The seal is broken and it's time for the end to begin False prophets who profit off the name of divine The devil roams across the Earth, blind lead the blind Seven trumpets sound releasing wrath upon deceitful They never thought their selfish greed would lead to something lethal The wicked's stricken the devil gaining the roots of all evil They're trying to get into heaven, start stabbing camels with needles We've all got crosses to bear, and I know that I'm bearing mine Lord, forgive me for sinning. Just need some peace in my mind I'm trying to conquer insanity Propaganda has branded me When the media slandered me And they say that I'm damned to see Penitentiary's clamps on me I was given an amnesty Cause I never did plan to see Letting them live their fantasy I knew you'd make a way for me not to be a statistic But carrying on my mission To be what I had envisioned And using all of my blessings To spread a positive message And try to change the perceptions that they've been taught to believe They think they know the way, but all of their thoughts been deceived They think they're going to be saved, but they're too lost in the greed Money and materials, they're taught to revere You better change your ways, the end is near Here this prophecy, remember all the words within What I speak is truth, I'm trying to help who's born of sin Rumors about war and famine, now the time's at hand The seal is broken and it's time for the end to begin False prophets who profit off the name of divine The devil roams across the Earth, blind lead the blind Seven trumpets sound releasing wrath upon deceitful They never thought their selfish greed would lead to something lethal [Verse 2: Monk] I have a brother I tattoo lyrics to papyrus reeds so he may read a blueprint to best use his lumber I pray that hatred don't wake in my meditation But if faced with an indignation, it raises exhumed from slumber Asunder rips the other grips seized from your realities Battle teasing the poor like they ate the chips when they're down You're afforded being ruthless when profiting off of gibberish Sounding off like you're toothless which leaves you lacking a crown And to all of their daughters spawned drawn back when they see him walking Their heads so high in the sky sometimes I wish they would drown Call him a misfit cause they witnessed his epidermis is different And now he's distant and go ballistic his true words can't come out Cause if he's anything like me He'll dig his front teeth into his bottom lip and tongue until his jawline's perforated They would try to tear out all of the values that bind him But McLean men and opinions are not as easily separated Blood oath to seeing truth liquifying the gene pool And with these rules we've designated speakers who have featured the message "Do not cling to your anger, but let it go." Well I've heeded, cause now that I'm angry I'll let it go Blasting off to the confused putting pieces to the puzzled And muzzling the malarky subconsciously been embezzled They're treating knowledge like contraband And what's worse is their hierarchy would fall if my people could learn to stand I have a brother I tattoo my wits to papyrus reeds so he can keep his iris on the future I watch his progress like I'm Horus or God I pray he frames no belief to spare his wisdom, his rod To fight a system that a**ist him in turning his life over Though we stay clutch in a game that plays rough A victory that's sought with no violence seem low odds But all we need is our mind, I promise you that's enough [Outro/Hook: Monk & Jesse Hughes]
