Promised Land (Sewerside Remix)

(Album: The Promise Land / Event Horizon - 2018)

I thought that this could be the promised land

I never thought there would be days like this
I wanna see you all raise your fist
I don't think we'll ever understand
I thought that this could be the promised land

I never thought that we would die alone
I always thought this place was our home
You wrap em up and you ship em out when
You needed someone that could be your clone

I thought that this could be the promised land

I never thought there would be days like this
I wanna see you all raise your fist
I don't think we'll ever understand
I thought that this could be the promised land

Politicians make decisions
Sending off their pawns one by one
Innocent when they were children
Now burning in the fire from their tongues

I thought that this could be the promised land

Yeah, promises promises
Believe in that, then you must be an optimist
Got a lot of 'em being dishonest
They talking 'bout one thing but then do the opposite
So you can't trust no one, go on alone
And follow your own path to Rome
[?] to the slaughter when the sheep cuz' they all wolves
Hiding in the wool tryna go for the throne

I thought that this could be the promised land (Nope)

I never thought there would be days like this
I wanna see you all raise your fist
I don't think we'll ever understand
I thought that this could be the promised land

I never
Thought there would be
Day-day-day-days like this
I thought
That this could be the
Prom-prom-prom-promised land

Make no mistake, I'm gonna make
Anything I wanna take, I'm gonna break
Away from all the lies and hate
I ain't got no patience left, I can't wait, no
I'm thinking "Do I really wanna risk everything" and when the bell rings
Am I gonna make it to heaven or what will hell bring
[?] I ain't got no time left, it's all gone
Your future was on the phone
Now you're all alone
Your crown rolls down the hill
On the blood you meant to spill
Your people will never follow
Follow you again
Your evil, it will color
A newborn friend

I never thought there would be days like this
I wanna see you all raise your fist
I don't think we'll ever understand
I thought that this could be the promised land
I never thought there would be days like this (I thought that this could be)
I wanna see you all raise your fist (I thought that this could be)
I don't think we'll ever understand (I thought that this could be the)
I thought that this could be the promised land

I thought that this could be
I thought that this could be
I thought that this could be the promised land
I thought that this could be
I thought that this could be
I thought that this could be the promised land
