(VERSE 1) I spoke in silver, not in truth I wrapped the chains in silk and youth Promised light, but gave them shade And watched their will begin to fade (VERSE 2) I kissed their pride, I fed their doubt Turned whispers in to battle shouts A mask of gold, a fist of steel I showed them what they want to feel (PRE-CHORUS) They cheered the fire, called it light And swore I had the people's right (CHORUS) Raise your voice for the righteous hand Bow your head to the bleeding land Crowned in dust, I wear your trust Built my throne from bones and rust You gave me power, you called it fate Now kiss the blade and praise the state (POST-CHORUS) Obey. Obey. I’ll lead the way. (VERSE 3) I gave them enemies to blame Painted virtue in my name Turned their sorrow into war And they just begged me to give more (PRE-CHORUS) They called me savior, raised my flag As I burned their past in body bags (CHORUS) Raise your voice for the righteous hand Bow your head to the bleeding land Crowned in dust, I wear your trust Built my throne from bones and rust You gave me power, you called it fate Now kiss the blade and praise the state (BRIDGE) Truth is noise, and fear is clean I rule your thoughts behind the screen The louder I lie, the more you cheer The silence dies, replaced by fear (CHORUS) Raise your voice for the righteous hand Bow your head to the bleeding land Crowned in dust, I wear your trust Built my throne from bones and rust You gave me power, you sealed your fate Now feed the fire… and love the hate (OUTRO) Obey… Obey… I’ll lead the way. You'll learn to pray… to me someday.
