lyrics

Written In Stone

Onyx, Ivory and Gold
These are the false idols of old
It's now wealth, money and greed
You covet the things you see on the tv screen

Well I don’t need your money
I don’t need your style
I can see right through your designer life

Give me the simple pleasures I know
All of the good day long
You tell me that your only God
Is all hail what you’ve got
Who you are is not what you own

You’re old testament Lotte
A pillar of salt
Validated by what you got
Crashes and lightening
Fire in the sky
Hell on earth you’re gonna die

Some things are written in stone.

The blood and the dirt ingrained in my hands tell me when my work is done
Old testament torn scars upon the land
You witness the dying of the sun

Well I don’t need your money
I don’t need your style
I can see right through your designer life

Give me the simple pleasures I know
All of the good day long
You tell me that your only God
Is all hail what you’ve got
Who you are is not what you own

You’re old testament Lotte
A pillar of salt
Validated by what you got
Crashes and lightening
Fire in the sky
Hell on earth you’re gonna die

Some things are written in stone.
