Lyrics

It's all delusion

Just find your sheep and strike the chord
Whisper sweet, become their Lord
Raise it high—above their lives
Bury truth beneath the lies

You just need a holy cover
To sell the blade to their mother
Raise your banners, light the flame
Sing their praises—then shift the blame

Draw the gun with your pride
Put your love all aside
Call it honor, call it right
Pull the trigger with your spite

Place a crown on a hollow heart
Let it shine while they fall apart
Let them die to guard the throne
Bleed for kings they’ve never known


Wrap the dagger in a velvet robe
Preach your hope, then tie the rope
Lace the wound with sacred thread
Call it faith when they’re all dead

Make 'em bleed for a holy name
Make 'em kill for a hollow fame
Truth is trembling in disguise
While the gods are selling lies

In the name of! In the name of
Raise the sword and the holy dove
In the name of
Just because

Draw the line—skin and race
Rank their lives, then call it fate
Chant the hymn in your race
Kill for colors, mark each place

Swear the aim is for peace
Call the war a sweet release
Every tyrant needs a tune
Play it loud beneath the moon
Kill for meaning, die for fame
All in service of the name
In the name of! In the name of
Build a throne on their broken bones
In the name of
For the crown
Watch the rising—burn it down

Stack the coins, count the loss
Call it growth, deny the cost
Preach “The Art of the Deal”
Let the rich spin the wheel
Wave the flag, claim the mines
Dig the graves in border lines
Call it order, call it grace
While the lies stain your face

Just one spark and the world complies
When belief is dressed in lies
So sing it loud, sing it real:
In the name of what's not real

In the name of
In the name of
In the name of

This isn’t just music. It’s poetry that bites back.
