The Face of God

Mars says mothers give me your sons
 Bullets whistle through the battlefield
 Steel dragons fire bombs
 Sacrifice them all to the guns they hold
 On an altar of barbed wire
 Those who live for war die by fire
 If you live for two kingdoms
 One will fall
 But You made Your throne an electric chair
 As we cried you're no king, ours is Cesar
 And as we murdered the innocent man
 You cried
 Father, forgive them
 Their transgressions
 On their wide road
 See the crucifixion
 The man of affliction
 See the face of God
 Oh this world is on fire
 When governments are crooks and liars
 We got
 Fake news and slave shoes
 When speaking gets you tear gassed
 But murder gets you a free pass
 So
 Long as you are white or blue
 But You made Your throne an electric chair
 As we cried you're no king, ours is Cesar
 And as we slaughtered the innocent Lamb
 You cried
 Father, forgive them
 Their transgressions
 On their wide road
 See the crucifixion
 The man of affliction
 See the face of God
 May Mars and Mammon
 Come crashing to the ground
 And the kingdom of Love
 Be earthbound
 Then my friend
 My Friend
 You've seen the face of God
