about

A song about leadership. From my forthcoming LP due in July!

lyrics

Born to rule

Wound up tightly
Born to rule almighty
Deeply righteous
Standing right beside us

Burning brightly
Brush you aside lightly
Noble human
High toned evolution

Coughing up a fog that smothers all
The unlovely truth rolls on & on

Malting surface
Starting to see through it
Lord usurper
Principle deserter

Richly frugal
With divine approval
Madly famous
Always entertains us

Coughing up the lead will cure us all
The unlovely truth rolls on & on

Brush away the leaves and reclaim the ground
Offending our ears with the same old sound
Soon they’re gonna tire of the broken vows
The patience of the earth is running out

Barely have the time left to live a life
Psycho God of war has a different fight
Rifle through your profile appetite
Sweetening the poison magnifies the crime
