The Final Revolution

Oh the far off flashes of lightning
Serve to warn of the doom that's approaching
And the prophets return to inform them
But they blame and defame and they scorn them
And the winds of destruction are blowing
But the candles resist them by glowing
And as the cloaks of deception are lifted
And the pearls in the sands are sifted
And the houses are filled with learning
And the six million souls are returning
And it's the final revolution
And it's the oldest one of all
And it's the final evolution
Between the mighty and the small
And the battle will not be fought with flowers
Nor by those who dwell in ivory towers
But in the desert where the heat grows hotter
And the should reach out for water
Between the hearts and the mind that it opposes
Between the law of the land and the law of Moses
Between Goliath and the sons of David
Between what's sordid and what is sacred
Between the seekers of truth and the heartless
The holy sparks against a multitude of darkness
(Chorus)
And when the fire submits to the candle
And the pot is as great as it's handle
And when pride is not cherished as a virtue
And when modesty is not seen as a curfew
And when the rich are known as the faithful
And the poor are seen as the ungrateful
And the phantom refugees of falsehood
Who demand their imaginary statehood
From the soul of it's rightful ruler
Who would have sold his birthright much sooner
Had it not been for the fighters of the ghetto
And for the oil that still burns in the temple
But it's better to be divided in the battle
Than to be slaughtered together like cattle
And the victims who despise their own religion
And who plead with the torturer to inflict them
They will be lost in the battle to resist them
And indifference is the gateway to extinction
For they are starving in a land of plenty
With foreign gods they feast and still their empty
But the children of a lost generation
Have returned to rebuild the Holy Nation
(Chorus)

Bring Them Home

They see the rod but do they know the smiter
They see the uprising but do they know the inciter
Ah is there ayone among the Nation
Who could lead this generation
And bring the children home - once again
They curse their burden
But do they see the taskmaster
They curse their problems
But do they seek the answer
(chorus)
They feel the heat but do they see the sunshine
They drive so fast but can they read the road signs
(chorus)
They witness crimes but do they understand them
The dogs run free but is there anyone to command them
(chorus)

The Voice of Freedom
05:50

The Voice of Freedom is the voice of judgment
The voice of Freedom is the voice of the law
Don’t say you are not guilty
Don’t say you have not strayed
Don’t blame all your misfortunes
On someone else’s name
Don’t look at what you have not
But learn what you can be
Don’t say you have no choices
Don’t say that you’re not free
The Voice of Freedom is the voice of Judgment
The Voice of Freedom is the voice of the Law
And when the rock they all despise
Becomes the cornerstone
And when the children all come home
And the King sits on his throne
And the truth is finally known
The voice of Freedom is the voice of judgment
The voice of freedom is the voice of the law.
Before you blame the system
Before you make demands
Before you blame the devil
See the blood on your own hands
Don’t say you don’t need fences
Don’t say you don’t need rules
The voice of mother nature is the wisdom of fools
But the voice of freedom is the voice of judgment
The voice of freedom is the voice of the law
And when the rock they all despise
Becomes the corners stone
And when the children all come home
And the King sits on his thrown
And the truth is finally known
The voice of freedom is the Voice of Judgment
The Voice of Freedom is the voice of the law
And those who seek correction –
Blessed will they be
And those who seek instruction will find eternity
The voice of freedom is the voice of judgment
The voice of freedom is the voice of the law.
Woo freedom
Don’t blame your misfortune
On someone else’s name
Don’t look for somebody, somebody to blame
Oh Freedom Is the voice of the Law
Got to learn the law.
