Lyrics
[Verse 1] I am a pilgrim, traversing this hellish land, Another Mother claims that she holds the reigns, She calls herself the Queen of Heaven’s brand, With a city called Babylon, where pride still reigns. Temples built high, adorned with gold and might, The authority granted by the Red Dragon’s sight, Ancient she stands, full of pride and decay, Like her father, the dragon, in darkness she'll sway. [Chorus] Our Mother clothed with the sun, come and descend upon us, We know you have the true testimony, You have a city called the New Jerusalem, I am a citizen, There is no temple in you, for God and the Lamb are the Light thereof. [Verse 2] Jealous and vengeful, she walks the divine, Killing the saints, from Abel to the line, Drunk on their blood, with an image puffed, Her father is Satan, a murderer rugged and tough. With whispers of secrets that blind the ill-fated, In shadows of darkness, she’s been celebrated, But her reign has an end, light will break through, Judgment awaits for the lies that she grew. [Chorus] Our Mother clothed with the sun, come and descend upon us, We know you have the true testimony, You have a city called the New Jerusalem, I am a citizen, There’s no temple in you, for God and the Lamb are the Light thereof. [Bridge] The dark woman has her days numbered, bound to fall, Oh Babylon, you’ll burn, and the merchants will call, For they were the great men, weaving webs of deceit, Sorceries brewing, tempting souls in defeat. But God shall come to clear all the confusion, Will you join the Mother, escape this delusion? Or make the fatal mistake, and choose the dark path, Turn from the light, invite the dragon’s wrath? [Chorus] Our Mother clothed with the sun, come and descend upon us, We know you have the true testimony, You have a city called the New Jerusalem, I am a citizen, There’s no temple in you, for God and the Lamb are the Light thereof. [Outro] So consider your choices, the paths laid before, Choose the light of the eternal Sun, or be trapped by old Fables, In a world full of shadows, only truth can sustain, Two Mothers, two destinies, one life to regain.
