Theme
A political commentary that warns of an imminent crisis or attack on the US government (specifically **Washington D.C.**), suggesting that the true threat is domestic corruption, not foreign enemies. It criticizes politicians' lies, the cost of war, and the approach of a **'new world order'** that will lead the entire 'rotten system' to implode.
Lyrics
The **quiet war has begun with silent weapons**
And the new slavery is to keep the people
Poor and stupid, "**Novus Ordo Seclorum**"
How can there be any logic in **biological war**?
We all know this is wrong, but the **New World Order's**
Beating down the door, oh something needs to be done
There was a **King (evil king)** who dreamt the wickedness of dreams
An ancient mystery no prophet could interpret
Of **seven years of famine**, the wolf is at my door
As predicted years ago, that that was, that is, that is no more
The word predicts the future and tells the truth about the past
Of how the world leaders were hailed unto Pharoah
The **Eighth False King to the Throne**, **Washington is Next!**
Disengage their minds, sabotage their health
Promote sex, and war, and violence in the kindergartens
Blame the parents and teachers; it's their fault, "**Annuit Coeptis**"
Attack the church dynamic, attack the family
Keep the public undisciplined till nothing left is sacred and
The "have-nots" get hooked and have to go to the "haves" just to cop a fix
I am the **King (evil king)** who dreams the wickedness of dreams
An ancient mystery nobody could interpret
Of **seven empires falling**, the wolf is at my door
As predicted years ago, that that was, that is, that is no more
The word predicts my future and tells the truth about my past
Of how the world leaders are waiting to usher in
The **Eighth World Power of modern Rome**, **Washington is Next!**
There was a **King (evil king)** who dreamt the wickedness of dreams
An ancient mystery no prophet could interpret
Of **seven empires falling**, the wolf is at the door
As predicted years ago, that that was, that is, that is no more
I am a King and I dream the wildest dreams
And nobody could interpret
**Seven empires falling**, the wolf is at my door
Oh, that that was, that is, that is no more
There's something at my door
Some ancient mystery
The future tells the truth about the past
I'm the **Eighth False King to the throne**
I've got you in my crosshairs, now, ain't that a bitch?
**Washington, you're next!**
