THE FLESH OF KINGS LYRICS

1. The View From Ephesus

Seeker-friendly
Is what you have become.
You have forgotten your first love
Your words are edifying to none.

Frail intentions, abound
Broken creations, surround

He said it would be this way,
Divine revelations of dismay.

Children
Return

We must be constantly reminded,
We reside within the will of a Father but our ambitions take control.
Reconciliation with the King & allegiance to the Lamb of Glory are the paramount concerns of the ones who wish to serve in the kingdom of the Morning Star

Your works are empty
Your words are false
Your works are empty when you seek to serve yourself

2. The Redeker Directive

Within our community, we
ARE FORSAKEN
By the powers that be on "Christian" tv
CORPORATE SPONSORS
Will decide the type of voice you should hear
ON THE AIRWAVES
I refuse to remain in the shadows

I WILL BE HEARD

You decide who should be saved,
I refuse to be your slave

Separation
Was never part of the plan
We are the outcasts
This division will be the end of us all

Don't ask
what went
so wrong when
You regard
Your brothers
as expendable assets
We have no place in your hearts
Abandoned us from the start

No place within your cold dead hearts
No shelter, no haven
Left amidst the outskirts of justice
My aggression will fall
Upon the head of my Enemy

This must end
My Father said it best
"A house divided will never stand"

NOW MY VOICE WILL BE HEARD

3. Zodiac

This is the Zodiac speaking
I am my own worst fear.
Her hazel eyes
so trusting
now overcome with tears.

Intoxicated by the sense of power
gained from denying
a life of her own.
Manipulated her love
& then betrayed it for fun,
and this is what I had become.

B-13290
This is a mark upon my chest
That you should know.
I can never be released.

Consider this your last
warning to stay away
or when they find you,
you won't smell the same.
She would not be the last,
but you know what they say,
the first will always maintain a special place.
Consider this your last
warning to stay away
or when they find you,
you won't smell the same
amidst the decay.

Redemption comes to those who are unfit.
Redemption comes to those who don't deserve it.

This is the zodiac speaking,
The Living God has brought my end.
The darkest part of me defeated, you'll never hear from me again...

4. Incorruptible

He was unwavering
His dedication to the King
Never faltering.
and this would be
His final legacy
to be remembered
By how he embraced the end.
No fear in the face of eternity,
& he would not be forsaken.

And ever more shall he sing in the presence of glory.
Now this corruptible must put on incorruption.

This is the fate that awaits the faithful,
EVERLASTING LIFE through the Christ,
through the willing sacrifice. PROPHESY,
this is the fate that awaits the faithful,
FOR WE WILL NEVER DIE
but shed this flesh as a filthy garment.

This life will fade away,
but unto those who remain
a judgement awaits.

And ever more shall he sing in the presence of glory
Now this corruptible has become incorruptible.
