Empire Of The Obscene

(album: Empire Of The Obscene - 2008)

From humble beginnings, a tyrant arises
To profit from sinning, can carry harsh prices
The obstacles of family
Inhibitions of pride
A ruthless monopoly
For wealth, he chose to be despised

Circumstances compel that he hide his face
As filth satisfies crudest urges
Raids drive his business from place to place
Manipulation disguises his earnings

"You can't convict me for obscenity
Look at all your failed indictments
I'll flaunt my ill-gained amenities
In the face of your moral rightness (fuck!)"

From humble beginnings, a tyrant arises
To profit from sinning, can carry harsh prices

Circumstances compel that he hide his face
As filth satisfies crudest urges
Raids drive his business from place to place
Manipulation disguises his earnings

"In arrogance inspiring spite
Your avarice betrays your might
The tyrant defiant, disposed and jailed
Evasive concealment of wealth unveiled"

It's a force-fed falsehood
When money in itself is a goal
Corruption, the able tool
To stifle self-control

Force-fed falsehood
When money in itself is a goal
Corruption, the able tool
To stifle self-control

Empire! Empire!

Empire of the obscene!...
