Full-blown Ascension

Cocky and loaded
 Never seemed a good combination
 Stubborn and nefarious
 Don't lead to happy times
 It doesn't take a genius
 To rule this wasted nation
 Just a pocketbook of platinum
 And a vast supply of simple minds
 With all the lies you've ever read
 Disguised as insight from the dead
 Is there nothing you can't do?
 Who's gonna hold you down
 When finally you leave this ground?
 It's a full-blown ascension,
 It's another dimension
 You've been preaching to the masses
 That there's gonna be some revolution
 What the right hand doesn't show
 The left can never understand
 So how strongly we fight against our
 New-found destitution
 And you sit an wonder why
 Nothing seems to go as planned
 Standing here in limbo
 With my arms stretched out akimbo
 "This should seem like something new?"
 Who's gonna be around
 When judgment comes to your town?
 It's a full-blown ascension,
 It's the right of cognition
 You paved the faithful's wretched path
 They traded in the golden calf
 Now they all bow down to you
 Who's gonna wear your crown
 When finally you leave this town?
 This is full-blown dissension
 It's another dimension
 Who's gonna be around
 When judgment comes to your town?
 It's a full-blown ascension,
 It's the right of cognition
 Who's gonna hold your hand
 When shit starts to hit the fan?
 It's a full-blown ascension,
 There's no misapprehension
 It's your final perdition
