The New Gods
Stray from the Path Lyrics

How can you justify
All the lives you fucked up?
Show me the truth
And I'll show you the cover up
Sick to my stomach
Sick of the lies
'Cause everything you touch
Curls up and dies

Strongarming weak minds

Tell me how can you sleep at night alright?
Pretty well I'm sure, trust me you'll get your turn
Before you watch the world burn

Your profit
My coffin
What's left for the rest of us?
Your profit
My coffin
Sick, dead and dumb but it's okay 'cause
Your profit
My coffin
What's left for the rest of us?
Your profit
My coffin
A sacrifice for the new gods

Planting caskets, like seeds
Laid to waste with the worms, the weeds
White lies on the labels we read
Fine print felons, down with the dying breed

Your profit
My coffin
What's left for the rest of us?
Your profit
My coffin
Sick, dead and dumb but it's okay 'cause
Your profit
My coffin
What's left for the rest of us?
Your profit
My coffin
A sacrifice for the new gods

Helpless
Crucified
Tell me
How can you justify?

A sacrifice for the new gods
What's left for the rest of us?

Your profit
My coffin
What's left for the rest of us?
Your profit
My coffin
Sick, dead and dumb but it's ok 'cause
Your profit
My coffin
What's left for the rest of us?
Your profit
My coffin
A sacrifice for the new gods

Matt Long

This may just sound like someone screaming to some people, but the fact of the matter is the financial system is taking 40% or more of our total economic production and they produce nothing but financial collapses and few rich fucks, the "new gods".

mangoatree

shieet <3

Stephen Turner

Beginning kind of sounds like a rip off of "surfacing". No hate, just saying

StarShredder777

What is this song about?

Wee wee the magical bee

8y↑4

StarShredder777 The lyrics which seems to be denouncing capitalism, "Your profit, my coffin". It seems to be portraying the bourgeoisie as our new Gods who dominate and destroy the world for profit. "What’s left for the rest of us?" may refer to the way the bourgeoisie makes their capital gain; extraction of surplus-value from workers, leaving them with barely enough money to survive. At least, that is my interpretation of it.
