A hollow prize from seed he has not sown... The measure true demands an honest price... No stolen gain can purchase sacrifice... [Chorus] We take the tool and labor with the hand... The sovereign law reclaims the stolen land... A righteous wage defies the greedy claim... The taker falls beneath the holy flame... [Verse 2] The hand that labors holds the honest right... The stolen shadow breaks against the light... We measure out the truth within the test... The honest labor brings the soul to rest... [Outro] The honest labor... Labor true... And nothing less. [End] Ephesians 4:28 “Let him that stole steal no more: but rather let him labour, working with his hands the thing which is good, that he may have to give to him that needeth.” === (THE X COMMANDMENTS, The Cold Measure, by Praxis & Blackdraft) === Full Album Link: https://suno.com/playlist/faeaab9d-6906-4057-817a-53b9061fa525 An Alternative Metal Music Crusade uniting absolute sovereign divine law, sacred human moments, and post-industrial soundscapes across 12 biblical tracks. - 44:05 Minutes
