Graven Image

Kneel before
Pontius Pilate
Is this the piece of shit
That says hes the son of god?
Here we have Jesus Christ
Carpenters son from the land of galilee
You have been charged with the crimes
Of sedition and heresy
How does thou plead?
You are not the son of god
I do not recognize this courts authority
Over me
Nazarene enemy of Rome
Who the fuck do you think you are?
How dare you speak to me
With such an insolent tone
I sentence thee to be crucified
First you shall be purified by pain
Then hung up for the world to see
Nailed to a cross next to
Two common thieves
Your death means nothing to me
You are not the son of god
Judas did not betray thee
He followed your every word
And for his loyalty he was
Repaid with a fate he didn’t deserve
Now his name is infamy and damned for all time
All because he tried to help you commit suicide
Thou shalt not kneel to any graven image
Your cross is a graven image
You all kneel to a graven image
Golgotha calls his name
Tears fill his eyes while the crowed awaits
Stones in hand we awaited this day
Are you ready for your walk of shame?
You will find no mercy here
Your words have fallen on deaf ears
Amputate Simon’s hand
No one helps this motherfucker again
Pick him up don’t let him fall
Make him carry his own cross
Have no fear the time has come
To kill the supposed son of god
Halo of thorns crowns his head
Jesus screams as blood fills his eyes
He’s a disgrace to I.N.R.I
The sweet sound of nails piercing flesh
As he fights for every breath
Nailed through the wrist not through the hands
Straight shot to hell for his cardinal sin
Now that the life is leaving his eyes
Take this spear and pierce his side
Jesus didn’t die for me
But he brought you all to your knees
Judas did not betray thee
He followed your every word
And for his loyalty he was
Repaid with a fate he didn’t deserve
Now his name is infamy and damned for all time
All because he tried to help you commit suicide
Thou shalt not kneel to any graven image
Your cross is a graven image
Yo all kneel to a graven image
Forgive us not for this sin
For we know exactly what it is that we do
Regret has played its part
His soul shall not ascend
How does it feel that your own kind has deceived you
