Lyrics Rat King - Dark Sermon

Rat King

Father, am I too blind to see?
Father, have you forsaken me?
Father, am I too blind to see?
Father, how have you forsaken me?
Caked in blood and soiled in dirt
Am I the rat king?
Crucified for blessing the earth
Am I truly the rat king?
What kingdom is this?
Navigate the maze, become lost in the gutter’s own
This cannot be my domain;
there must be more than what is shown
Knotted tails and broken teeth adorn the throne
I cannot inherit this domain, this mountainous sin to be atoned
Caked in blood and soiled in dirt
Am I the rat king?
Crucified for blessing the earth
Am I truly the rat king?
I heal the wounded and the violently ill
I am the rat king
I wear the crown, I lead the march upon the hill
I am the rat king, so crucify me
Bow your head and swallow your will
I am the rat king, so crucify me now
Pray until your patience rivals your will
I am the rat king, so crucify me
Those who worship are suffering still
I am the rat king
