Slayer — Cult

[Verse 1] Oppression is the holy law In God I distrust In time, His monuments will fall Like ashes to dust Is war and greed the master plan? The Bible's where it all began Its propaganda sells despair And spreads the virus everywhere [Pre-Chorus] Religion is hate Religion is fear Religion is war Religion is rape Religion's obscene Religion's a whore [Chorus 1] The pestilence is Jesus Christ There never was a sacrifice No man upon the crucifix Beware the cult of purity Infectious imbecility I've made my choice: Six-six-six [Lead – Hanneman] [Verse 2] Corruption breeds the pedophile Don't pray for the priest Confession finds the lonely child God preys on the weak You think your soul can still be saved I think you're fuckin' miles away Scream out loud, here's where you begin: "Forgive me, Father, for I have sinned" [Pre-Chorus] Religion is hate Religion is fear Religion is war Religion is rape Religion's obscene Religion's a whore [Chorus 2] The target's fucking Jesus Christ I would've led the sacrifice And nailed him to the crucifix Beware the cult of purity Infectious imbecility I've made my choice: Six-six-six [Bridge] Jesus is pain Jesus is gore Jesus is the blood That's spilled in war He's everything He's all things dead He's pulling on the trigger Pointed at your head Through fear, you're sold into the fraud Revelation, revolution I see through your Christ illusion [Lead – King] [Verse 3] The war on terror just drags along My war with God is growing strong His propaganda sells despair And spreads the violence everywhere [Pre-Chorus] Religion is hate Religion is fear Religion is war Religion is rape Religion's obscene Religion's a whore [Chorus 3] There is no fuckin' Jesus Christ There never was a sacrifice No man upon the crucifix Beware the cult of purity Infectious imbecility I've made my choice: Six-six-six [Lead – Hanneman]
