Lyrics August Burns Red

August Burns Red

Blackwood

There is no hope for me, at least I know

I know what I believe, and now I see

No longer will we be fooled, you say

There is no hope for me, at least I know

I know what I believe, and now I see

No longer will we be fooled

White skin, white teeth, black heart, black lungs

Sleeping on your stacks of millions

As your followers struggle to overcome, overcome

Sickness, poverty, heartbreak, hatred are dealt with every day

You can't relate

You can't remember a single name

Stare into a screen before you'll look them in the eyes

You'll never change a life until you know

Everything you say sounds like a lie

Blessed by the hands of God, or cursed by the tongue of the devil?

Who do you serve?

No more ignorance, no more complacency

Behind your white skin and white teeth

Lies a heart so black it makes the abyss look bright

You say, you say, there is no hope for me

If a rich man can't get into heaven, where will you dwell?

If a rich man can't ascend, will I see you in hell?

You say, there is no hope for me, at least I know

I know what I believe, and now I see

No longer will we be fooled, you say

There is no hope for me, at least I know

I know what I believe, and now I see

No longer will we be fooled
