This song is reference to Pastor Jim Jones and the Jamestown mass suicide in 1976-8. "id never heard a man like this before" was a hymn they would sing to him in service at the peoples temple in california before they moved to JamesTown South America. the first line is talking about something slipped into a drink, which was the poison mixed with the punch which they all ingested when jones' found the FBI had heard about his acts of abuse. There were so many bodies they didnt know what to do. i think this is what cedrics trying to explain. i havent really researched any of the other songs but i heard that one off the new album was a cover song. This is it, the chorus, the hymn they sung in service.
