That Was Long Ago Lyrics by Ron Wiseman

0

Let me tell you a story
Before it all began
Before Russia and China
Made a pact with Iran
Before the Third World War
Which was the end of all war
When all the great armies
Stood outside our door
It happened gradually
Long before the plague
When lawlessness became a virtue
And virtue was shamed
Then came the germs
We could no longer fight
It ended in darkness
Wе were the last bеacon of light
That was long ago
Before anybody had a clue
America had been conquered
And no one even knew
Then came the infiltration
The peoples will was rearranged
Judges were replaced
And protesters defamed
Now with obstacles overturned
That's when the season began
Those who once fought for the underdog
Made everybody kneel at their command
They tore up the constitution
It was rewritten and overruled
Disrespect as respected and respect was ridiculed
(Chorus)
Now with absolute power
They rewrote history
Erased every trace of accountability
The foundation of the law was
Repressing their progression
They came with a crusade
To end all oppression
But the olive branch was twisted
Like the face of violent men
When all the miracles happened
We were more surprised than them
(Chorus)
Now the King today was then a shepherd
When they came to attack
To fight against Heaven
And Heaven fought back
In a way it was good
When the greatest man made idol fell
Cause then everyone understood
Without the Lord you create only Hell
They say history repeats itself
But never quite the same
A new madness takes over
Even your best friend might go insane
Liberty goes underground
But in the end it will prevail
Goodness always wins the day
And evil always fails
