[Spoken Word Intro] The final ledger entry on the prophetic corporate track The letter to the church of Laodicea, where the blind cannot turn back [Rap Verse] And unto the angel of the letter to the church of the Laodiceans write These things saith the Amen, the faithful and true witness of light The beginning of the creation of God, checking the balance sheet I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot in your seat I would thou wert cold or hot, but you choose the middle ground So then because thou art lukewarm, and no burning fire is found And neither cold nor hot, a corporate empire built on a lie I will spue thee out of my mouth under the darkening sky [Heavy Country Rock Chorus] Because thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods today! And have need of nothing, as the feel-good smooth talkers say! And knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor! And blind, and naked, standing right outside of the door! Yeah the judgment is coming, the golden empire will fall, The complete opposite of Philadelphia standing tall! [Rap Verse] Yo, the seventh era of Church history is the wealthy corporate machine Megachurches trading truth for the glossy screen No mention of the cross, just prosperity and smiles in the place While the lukewarm masses buy the watered-down grace I counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire that you may be rich And white raiment, that thou mayest be clothed outside the ditch And anoint thine eyes with eyesalve, that thou mayest finally see As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten, so zealous be [Heavy Country Rock Chorus] Because thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods today! And have need of nothing, as the feel-good smooth talkers say! And knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor! And blind, and naked, standing right outside of the door! Yeah the judgment is coming, the golden empire will fall, The complete opposite of Philadelphia standing tall! [Rap Bridge] Behold, I stand at the door, and knock on the corporate glass If any man hear my voice, and open the door at last I will come in to him, and will sup with him in the night And he with me, stepping out of the stadium light [Spoken Word Outro] To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne Even as I also overcame and sat down with my Father alone The letter to the church of Laodicea, the final warning in hand The lukewarm, corrupted corporate age ruling the land He that hath an ear, let him hear Lost to the world. [End]
