Real Ethics Cry
- Our judges question still today the God that gives us life. All praise to Him brings peace on earth, but big money comes through war and strife.
- They’ve made a bust of Themis to bend your point of view; the interpretation of our law is a myth to judges too!
- Some say to us, there are no rules “that laws are made to break;” But when they face the Final Judge you’ll hear, “for heavens’ sake.”
- Now some say that Bush was wrong to start these unjust wars, I only know there was consent and some congressmen are whores.
- Fathers die on battlefields and history tells just why. Money is made selling war machines but still the children cry.
- As the blood of saints gone out to war are crying out to God. Our leaders sins are soon revealed and God spares not the rod.
- The blood the blood its judgement time as Jesus truly said; all men must listen to the blood or they will be twice dead.
