Cross Contamination Lyrics by Otep

Kult 45

2018

(Real talk)
If Mary was only 14 when she had Jesus
What does that make god?

The bible should begin
Once upon a time
Too many hungry kids
Too many mothers cry

Venomous snakes
And friendly handshakes
Doctrines of violence
Beg for silence
Mentally enslaving
Complacent population
Look at what we facing
Complete annihilation
Moral laryngitis
Infects a generation
But their time is at an end
We'll ascend
We'll be waiting
To awaken
Light the fuse
And wait for detonation

Cross contamination
Choose your gods that fit your needs
Cross contamination
Zealots, bigots, hypocrisy
Cross contamination
Judges made of money and greed
Cross contamination
Salvation ain't for free

The bible should begin
Once upon a time
Cause who prays for Lucifer?
The greatest sinner of all time

Venomous snakes
And friendly handshakes
Doctrines of violence
Beg for silence
Mentally enslaving
Complacent population
Look at what we facing
Complete annihilation
Moral laryngitis
Infects a generation
But their time is at an end
We'll be bending barricades
We're not afraid and
Light the fuse
And wait for detonation

Cross contamination
Choose your gods that fit your needs
Cross contamination
Zealots, bigots, hypocrisy
Cross contamination
Judges made of money and greed
Cross contamination
Salvation ain't for free

Osiris
Dionysus
Ganesh
Zarathustra
Krishna
Persephone
Yeshua
The squad of dying gods

The bible should begin
Once upon a time
Too many hungry kids
Too many mothers cry

False prophets
With sermons counterfeit
Preaching hate
So you'll obey
These rancid hypocrites
Cause files don't fly
Too far from piles of shit
But this is my nation
Light the fuse
And wait for detonation

Cross contamination
Choose your gods that fit your needs
Cross contamination
Zealots, bigots, hypocrisy
Cross contamination
Judges made of money and greed
Cross contamination
Salvation ain't for free
