Legacy
Blinded Colony Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Aggressively forced upon mankind, your ethical rules for living
Striking fear into humanity to serve your own purpose
Creating slaves in the name of Christ, scared to obedience
From generation to generation the lie proceeds

Preaching from your book of holy lies you try to poison our minds
Your god doesn't exist to me, I'm free to think for myself
This pillage is unforgivable, accepting no other beliefs than your own
Don't think that when you die, you'll go to your precious paradise

Your paradise is my hell, your belief is my disgust
After 2000 years of a worthless legacy

Enslaving the world to be yours alone
A race of non-thinkers obeying your God
Building your Blinded Colony with stinking lies
You are nothing but greedy hypocrites

Preaching from your book of holy lies you try to poison our minds
Your god doesn't exist to me, I'm free to think for myself
This pillage is unforgivable, accepting no other beliefs than your own
Don't think that when you die, you'll go to your precious paradise

Your paradise is my hell, your belief is my disgust
After 2000 years of a worthless legacy

Enslaving the world to be yours alone
A race of non-thinkers obeying your God




Building your Blinded Colony with stinking lies
You are nothing but greedy hypocrites
