Lyrics
Black Gold
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
The world is on fire, hunting for oil
A handful of liars dividing the spoils
Bullshit is walking with a whole bunch of lies
When money is talking, reality dies
[Pre:]
They came with a lie, feeding their pile
Souls' gonna die, they're addicted to win
Selling wrong for right enlarging their file
Boneheaded games, triumph of sin
[Chorus:]
Black gold, stuck to their veins
Black gold, they're running insane
Black gold, blood on their hands
Black gold, life's got no chance
Black gold
Raking in money the evil to praise
Licking its honey hellfire to face
[Pre]
[Chorus]
[Chorus]
Black gold, goes up in smoke
Black gold, children to choke
Black gold
