Lyrics Empire of the Obscene - Revocation

Empire of the Obscene

From humble beginnings
A tyrant arises
To profit from sinning
Can carry harsh prices
The obstacle of family
And inhibitions of pride
A ruthless monopoly
For wealth, he chose to be despised
Circumstances compel that he hide his face
As filth satisfies crudest yearnings
Raids drive his business from place to place
Manipulation disguises his earnings
«You can’t convict me for obscenity
Look at all your failed indictments
I’ll flaunt my ill-gained amenities
In the face of your moral rightness.»
«In arrogance inspiring spite
Your avarice betrays your might
The tyrant defiant, deposed and jailed
Evasive concealment of wealth unveiled.»
It’s a force-fed falsehood
When money in itself is a goal
Corruption the able tool
To stifle self control
Empire of the Obscene
Crumbling down
