Empire of Lies
[INTRO]
Now, I love this country
An' I was born here
An' I′ve written many songs glorifyin' it, hmm
But it ain't perfect
Now, I′ma write a song criticizin' it

Don't be surprised, now
We are just the empire of lies, now
It's lookin' like we′re meetin′ our demise, now
Put your faith in God, and look up to the skies, now
'Cause, we are just the empire of lies, now
We are just the empire of lies, now
It's lookin' like we′re meetin' our demise, now
Put your faith in God, and look up to the sky, now
The time is now, we′re just the empire of lies, now

[Chorus]
Need an overhaul
Overseas,we so involved
I see the writing, it's on the wall
This Babylon, an' we' gonna fall
You think God is looking down
An' proud of all his people
We kill the babies by the millions
He will crush us
We are feeble, uh
He is God
We are man
He′s the rock
We are sand
He's got a rod, with a big ol' hand
One swipe, all your little plans, man
Okay, I will not put any faith
Into man, I will look to the sky (I'ma look to the sky!)
Are you gonna make it to heaven?
It's real, better look in my eyes (better look in my eyes!)
Bro, China, Russia (China, Russia?)
Man, they ain′t the op′s (they're here in America!)
It's the ones in our country (it's politicians!)
An' most of them makin' the laws (makin' the laws!)
An' most of them makin' a profit (makin' a killin'!)
Take a look at the clock, time is tickin', need a box (tick, tick-tock)
God is comin', with a big ol' mop
[HOOK]
Okay, let me get this straight
We kick God out of just about everything
That we possibly can, in this country
We kick him out of schools
We kick him out of government
We push homosexuality on our children
We tell little boys that you could be a little girl
The cup of iniquity and immorality
Is overflowin', in this country
And we expect God to protect us? I don't think so

[Chorus]
Don′t be surprised, now
We are just the empire of lies, now
It's lookin' like we′re meetin' our demise, now
Put your faith in God an' look up to the skies, now
'Cause, we are just the empire of lies, now
We are just the empire of lies, now
It's lookin' like we're meetin' our demise, now
Put your faith in God and look up to the sky, now
The time is now, we′re just the empire of lies, now

[VERSE]
Corruption, e'rybody against the Russian
But, I don't trust the production
They lying, using seduction
The devil pulling them strings
The TV ain't what it seems
He comin', oh, what a relief!
But until I die, I'ma pull up my sleeves (pull up my sleeves)
We turning our boys into girls
An takin' the king off the throne (man)
Instead of these foreign affairs, man
Why don't we focus on home? Heh
Got a border crisis, big threat, it's more than ISIS
Point the finger, who's more righteous
As the Babylonian Whore rises
Everybody drinkin' from her cup
Won't you come here to America, we can fill it up
I'm American, but truly I just think I had enough
Bunch of dummies run this country 
Thing's about to get rough
[BRIDGE]
Even on the conservative side
You go to these events, you see cross dressers, man
Homosexuals, people livin' it up, partying
The world drinks from her cup
You are witnessing The Fall of Babylon

[Chorus]
Don't be surprised, now
We are just the empire of lies, now
It's lookin' like we're meetin' our demise, now
Put your faith in God, and look up to the skies, now
'Cause, we are just the empire of lies, now
We are just the empire of lies, now
It's lookin' like we're meetin' our demise, now
Put your faith in God, and look up to the sky, now
The time is now, we′re just the empire of lies, now (lies now, lies now...)
