[Part I: Holy Wars...]
[Instrumental Intro]
[Verse 1]
Brother will kill brother, spilling blood across the land
Killing for religion, something I don't understand
Fools like me, who cross the sea and come to foreign lands
Ask the sheep for their beliefs "Do you kill on God's command?"
A country that's divided, surely will not stand
My past erased, no more disgrace, no foolish naive stand
The end is near, it's crystal clear
Part of the master plan
Don't look now to Israel
It might be your homeland
[Chorus]
Holy wars
[Part II: The Punishment Due]
[Verse 1]
Upon my podium as the "know it all" scholar
Down in my seat of judgement, gavel's bang, uphold the law
Upon my soapbox, a leader out to change the world
Down in my pulpit as the "holier than thou, could be messenger" of God
[Verse 2]
Wage the war on organized crime
Sneak attacks
Rappel down the rocks behind the lines
Some people risk to employ me
Some people live to destroy me
Well, either way, they die
They die
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 3]
They killed my wife and my baby with hopes to enslave me
First mistake
Last mistake
Paid by the alliance
To slay all the giants
Next mistake
No more mistakes
[Guitar Solo]
[Part I (Continued): Holy Wars...]
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 2]
Fill the cracks in with judicial granite
Because I don't say it, don't mean I ain't thinking it
Next thing you know, they'll take my thoughts away
I know what I said, now I must scream of the overdose
And the lack of mercy killings
Mercy killings, mercy killings, killings, killings, killings
[Outro]
Next thing you know, they'll take my thoughts away
