That time before original sin You took us in your ship The gate on our shore Hundreds of millions What I didn't understand Was that priest with that water Grotesque cross made of tin My Christian name carved thin Cuts and bruise and pain and blood Your house is going to sink in flood Never thought I'd die in these chains But I won death I work all the same After a crushing day in the sun Our brothers wait in the dark When smaller men fall to sleep Gods want to destroy your greed You took away my pride and life In front of me you raped my wife I come back from the dead To make things right After a crushing day in the sun Our brothers wait in the dark When smaller men fall to sleep Gods want to destroy your greed
