Loktavious - Dedicated to the Deceptive Gods lyrics

[Verse 1: Loktavious] Deceptive gods they live among us Shaping the world that we view Against all odds we give abundant Statistics of what we do To corporate drones, to hallmark clones And the ones who love us too With perspective flaws and selective cause They are trying to control you Who you ask? Well that's a pretty broad question Reel it back 2008 election Did you study the facts? Or were you pushed in a direction? By your family or bad ads Or a homie with a political erection? Closer inspection reveals that it really didn't matter Who ever won was the one to deal with disaster I bet you right now POTUS is conversing with a master Wishing that his term in office would end a little faster I mean Your hair don't go from all black to grey white Unless you've seen a secret that should never see light Unless you've heard those sounds that are too dark for the night Unless you know of the gods that intervene with delight [Chorus x2] Deceptive gods they live among us And they do not hear you pray They can be your love, your light, your life and they can take it all away Deceptive gods they live among us And they do not hear you pray They can be your love, your light, your life and they can take it all away [Verse 2: Loktavious] Conspiracy the sheep say, hypnotized by bias puppets Mothers, fathers, siblings, cousins memorized by Gia's trumpets And those with open eyes, are Terrorized by Vyas covenants Doomed to die divided, while paralyzed by many Dyas summits I digress, and suggest the vampires that claim to care Are only there to drink you bare, all living nightmares Sometimes they are as simple as a pa**erby that stares Or more discreet like those that sleep Inside demonic lairs Tied and bound by their own will, gods that have forgot Shells of what they once were, conformers of a plot Others in silence rise, and now terrorize another's flock You are all caught in the middle And the cycle will never stop Unless we take what these nameless deities have carved From our world to make a profit leaving others starved And shift the focus to move forward and stop leaving families scarred Or we could stay inside our phones and watch the world from the yard [Chorus x2] Deceptive gods they live among us And they do not hear you pray They can be your love, your light, your life and they can take it all away Deceptive gods they live among us And they do not hear you pray They can be your love, your light, your life and they can take it all away [Verse 3: Loktavious] I think the worst are the gods who claim to stay forever but never do Who play with hearts like marionettes their selection never few Pretending to be innocent sinking teeth in as you get a closer view The ones who claim to live life largely and love but not with you I hate these deceptive gods, pushing us to friendly demons with ease We try to mingle with dancing angels but it's like we have a disease Not loving one another because the last left with a harsh freeze They tell you be free, and prosper, but what is allowed is a small tease [Chorus x2] Deceptive gods they live among us And they do not hear you pray They can be your love, your light, your life and they can take it all away Deceptive gods they live among us And they do not hear you pray They can be your love, your light, your life and they can take it all away
