about

track from ''something we've all seen before'' 12inch out feb 2013

lyrics

a shot rang out
through the desert bare
as the holy one's head the call to prayer
and the sermon said
spare not the rod
kalishnakov worshiped like a god

a child's life had just begun
but there's a test of faith strapped across her waist
when martyrdom is number one
they have succumb to the hand of god

a shot rang out
through a city square
a black man died and nobody cared
but there's a little church
where the poor can go
right across the street from the liquor store

where mothers grieve their only son
if not to gangs than to foreign war
america the chosen one
she has become the land of guns

a child's life had just begun
in this place called the land of god
around the world the song is sung
everybody chained to the land of god

an arab spring a newborn dream
still nothings changed in the land of god
around the world the song is sung
everybody chained to the land of guns
