Mine Is The Mountain
(专辑: The Zealot Gene - 2022)
Mine is the
power and mine is the
glory Mine is the
mountain up which you tread Give me bold question, give me good reason Tell me you love me, fear all I
have said Don't imitate me, don't forsake me In images silver, in idols of gold Don't make me jealous, don't make me angry Don't ever leave me out in the
cold Mine is the
mountain Bring all your pomp Precious jewels and your finery Build me safe haven for tablets of stone To live through the
ages, to scold and to guide you Threaten, cajole you and cut to the
bone Mine is the
mountain I'm no pushover lamb, no gentle provider Vengeance, retribution are my middle names I
can make a
cadaver of your women, your firstborn With a
snap of a
finger, of salt and of flame Matty and Lucas may bring something softer Gentle in word and gentle in deed But you who ignore these things that are written Will define the
story your children will read Mine is the
mountain Bring all your pomp Precious jewels and your finery Bring me safe haven for tablets of stone To live through the
ages, to scold and to guide you Threaten, cajole you and cut to the
bone Mine is the
mountain So think of me fondly in spite of the
raging The
ranting, the
raving, the
threatening tone For I
am the
father, the
power and the
glory And now, for God's sake, kindly leave me alone Mine is the
mountain
