Spiritual Genocide

Let's drop our axes and let's go for a ride
Take Houston Levee deep into the east side
Open the T-tops, turn the music up high
I'll take the wheel when you feel like it's too far to drive

We can run but we know we can never hide
From the truth and the lies of our spiritual genocide

I hear you crying at the foot of the bed
I ask what's wrong and you just shake your head
Did you not hear a word that my father said?
He prophesied that the world would be better off dead

He said we can run but we know we can never hide
He said we can lie but the truth always comes to the light
Yeah I know we can run but I know we can never hide
From the truth and the lies of our spiritual genocide

My sister called and said you're not well
You're in the ICU, your kidneys have failed
I take a breathe and let out a sigh
Grab my keys to the car and go for a drive

I can run but I know I can never hide
From the truth and the lies of our spiritual genocide
