lyrics

WE PLEDGE ALLEGIANCE TO A KING AND A KINGDOM THERE IS FREEDOM IN BABYLON BUT WHAT KIND OF FREEDOM? WE PLEDGE ALLEGIANCE TO A FLAG AND A MASTER WE ARE OFFERED SALVATION BUT ITS SAFETY WE’RE AFTER WE WERE CURSED TO WANDER THE WORLD ALL OUR LIVES SO WE BUILT OUR TOWERS TO REACH TO THE SKIES SERVING TWO MASTERS WE’VE LEARNED TO LOVE ONE AWAITING THE DAY WHEN OUR WORK HERE IS DONE WOE TO OUR MAMMON IDEA OF DREAMS THE FABRIC OF MAN WILL NOT HOLD AT THE SEAMS SEARCHING THE NARROW PATH THAT LEADS US TO WISDOM UNTIL WE ONLY PLEDGE ALLEGIANCE TO THE KING AND THE KINGDOM
