God Damn Lyrics
Oh!
Hey! Can't you see we're tripping on the wire
Walking through the candy land of our desires
Press the magic button and behold the world you crave
Where's the fun in freedom when it renders you a slave?
Pledge allegiance, no flag
God nation, goddamned
The devil dances with the scorned
And how the fire keeps us warm
Hey! It goes beyond big brother in the sky
Beyond the threat of martial law no Horus eye
No one came to cuff you they just handed you the chains
Blind follows the blind and now the one-eyed man is king
Pledge allegiance, no flag
God nation, goddamned
The devil dances with the scorned
And how the fire keeps us warm
Tunnel vision, no man
Damnation, god damn
Can't see the forest for the trees
Can't heal the wound before we bleed
No form of payment, no pot of gold will satisfy the debt of what he's owed
Spilling from the houses in a trance the children lined up on the road
Cursing at the piper as he lured your kids away
And led them to the river for what was their final day
No need for convincing on his pipe he played a song to fool them all
Fooled them all
Pledge allegiance, no flag
God nation, goddamned
The devil dances with the scorn
And now the fire keeps us (keeps us)
Tunnel vision, no man
Damnation, god damn
Can't see the forest for the trees
Can't heal the wound before we bleed
Walking through the candy land of our desires
Press the magic button and behold the world you crave
Where's the fun in freedom when it renders you a slave?
God nation, goddamned
The devil dances with the scorned
And how the fire keeps us warm
Beyond the threat of martial law no Horus eye
No one came to cuff you they just handed you the chains
Blind follows the blind and now the one-eyed man is king
God nation, goddamned
The devil dances with the scorned
And how the fire keeps us warm
Damnation, god damn
Can't see the forest for the trees
Can't heal the wound before we bleed
Spilling from the houses in a trance the children lined up on the road
Cursing at the piper as he lured your kids away
And led them to the river for what was their final day
No need for convincing on his pipe he played a song to fool them all
Fooled them all
God nation, goddamned
The devil dances with the scorn
And now the fire keeps us (keeps us)
Damnation, god damn
Can't see the forest for the trees
Can't heal the wound before we bleed

The song is about how we, in current society, through our own fears for safety have given the government too much control and power over us, but it didn't happen like a massive martial law takeover or like 1984... it happened because we gave away too much of our freedom for the sake of feeling safe. So there was no big evil big brother, or illuminati. It was us, we did it ourselves.
Due to fear mongering of racism, sexism, and guilt for the sin's of the father, the left: big government was created and uses our insecurities on those issues (which aren't as big of issues as we've been led to believe) we've bought their malicious narrative and took it as truth.
"It goes beyond big brother in the sky Beyond the threat of martial law no Horus eye No one came to cuff you they just handed you the chains Blind follows the blind and now the one-eyed man is king"
Horus eye and one-eyed man are allusions to the illuminati: the all seeing eye. The public accepted the lies of the government and now the even the sheep are fighting people who are against the government; they've become self-herding.
This is saying that humans that we are all born damned and many choose to live in the nation of damnation for perverted pleasure.We live in a majority of wasted sperms you fuckers!
He\'s talking about phones:\n\n"Press the magic button and behold the world you crave\nWhere\'s the fun in freedom when it renders you a slave?"\n\n"Spilling from the houses in a trance the children lined up on the road\nCursing at the piper as he lured your kids away"\n\nThe one-eyed man is the internet.
