Lyrics The Cleansing Room - K Rino

The Cleansing Room

Listen.
it all started on a rainy night around noon
I woke up and found myself trapped in a locked and sound room
First I thought that I was there alone but didn’t anymore
'Cause I noticed 5 other people sitting on the floor
I was confused and scared, anxiety in my head
'Cause I knew the night before I was lying sleep in my bed
So the question was how did I arrive tell me quickly
And more importantly who were the other 5 dwelling with me
Their real identities I would come to discover each
One man was a doctor, the other one was a priest
A politician, teacher and a cop were the other three
But the room now consisted of six because of me
We were all nervous what was the purpose of this endeavor
None of us had ever met yet we were all here together
We were yelling loud, banging on the wall tryna crush it
Then a voice over the intercom strongly interrupted
You are in the cleansing room
You are in the cleansing room
There will be a cleansing soon
Leading to impending doom
You are in the cleansing room
You are in the cleansing room
There will be a cleansing soon
Leading to impending doom
We all jumped in horror because his tone was horrid
And with authority he told the doctor to come forward
He said do you know why you are here?
And he replied
That he didn’t, so the voice began to ruthlessly describe
All the times that his patients were told intentional lies
And guided to the grave with medicines he prescribed
You’ve ended many lives people died prematurely
'Cause love of money drove you to practice your craft poorly
Then he called out the teacher, told her everywhere that you went
You knowingly would teach false history to your students
You stayed silent as every moral fiber decayed
Afraid to challenge power, just content with being paid
Mr politician your evil ways have never switched
Oppressive policies made for the benefit of the rich
And he spoke to the cop who just had to be stopped
For the racial hate harassment and black people he shot
You are in the cleansing room
You are in the cleansing room
There will be a cleansing soon
Leading to impending doom
You are in the cleansing room
You are in the cleansing room
There will be a cleansing soon
Leading to impending doom
There was deep regret, the voice told the priest he’s next
He said, «You prey on little boys like a beast for sex
You’re supposed to lead them to God 'til each is blessed
But you destroyed lives and left and increased defect»
The stage was set, who was this voracious threat
But what was crazy he hadn’t even engaged me yet
The rest were crying with fear, the defiance was clear
Nervously I said, «Excuse me sir, but am I here»
He said, «You make songs that potentially can influence
You can bring the people to truth or you can bring them to ruins
The decision is up to you, what will you do with your voice
I hope that what you witnessed here will help you render your choice»
That’s when the doctor started throwing up his body declined
The teacher’s mental state diminished, she started losing her mind
A bullet shot through the wall I was frozen with shock
It went right through the politician’s head and murdered the cop
He gurgled and dropped, from the top a flame was released
And I don’t even want to speak on what became of the priest
Right then I knew I couldn’t misuse my gifts in these streets
The door opened the voice said, «Yes, you get it now, go in peace»
You are in the cleansing room
You are in the cleansing room
There will be a cleansing soon
Leading to impending doom
You are in the cleansing room
You are in the cleansing room
There will be a cleansing soon
Leading to impending doom
