Intro:
There’s no light in the city
They’re suffering hard
Evil in the air, even the sun is dark...
Let’s do defy the tyrants,
There’s no light, there’s no light in the city
Verse One:
The hustle is real but the struggle is fake
The truth is all of these suckers are in love with the State
They want to be tucked in, nuzzled and safe
In the prison of the tyrant that will piss in their face
It’s time to separate the rebels from the drones
From those that want freedom and those that will settle for Rome
From the “No King but Jesus, you better leave me alone”
to the “At least Caesar feeds us when he’s on the throne”
This is the land of the slaves, look down at them shackles
Start a business the King State will come and tax you
Start one on the street, and they will kidnap you
You vote for which master will wind up and smack you
These Conservatives, conserving the Police State
Lawlessness and disorder, let them eat cake
and I’ve seen the so called woke community asking
For Federal Police to step in and harass them
Hook (x2)
There’s no light in the city
They’re suffering hard
Evil in the air, even the sun is dark
In these nights of violence
Let’s go defy the tyrants
There’s no light, there’s no light in the city.
Verse Two:
These local police are racist so please
Step in and enslave us at the hands of the Beast
And any kid on the block has this in his head:
“You’re better off dead than enlisting the Feds”
Yet, that’s where we are, so how did it happen?
Well, it happened in exactly the same fashion
Throughout history, the King State has enslaved its inhabitants
As long as they reject God as King, the State can have them
Read 1 Samuel, 8th chapter the root
But if your slave master has you then you’ll pass on the Truth
Like you’re passing your chains on the back of the youth
Think you have a passion for change, when you’re actually fools
And if you think you’ll be stupid and free?
You’re asking for what never was, and what will never be
The State is not your friend, it’s your enemy
And if you ain’t listening to me, then this will be your elegy
Hook (x2)
There’s no light in the city
They’re suffering hard
Evil in the air, even the sun is dark
In these nights of violence
Let’s go defy the tyrants
There’s no light, there’s no light in the city.
Verse Three:
I speak the language of Mordor straight to its inhabitants
Incite the fall like Saul, to the arrogant
To those who use position for power over the weak
Like the Drug War lords that devour the streets
See we’re for the Law (but it’s the Law of God)
and ya’ll are for the Law (but it’s the law of the mob)
When the majority rules,
