Moral One - Babble lyrics

[Verse 1:] I stand back Looking at the telecast Watching humankind Mold and caste their golden calves From some Baptists to the Boom Baps From allah to aristocrats Gods in all forms, shapes Sizes and formats I see my own skeletons Under the floor boards Gods I used to mess with Adore, caress with And still feel the allure From their corpses Knocking at my new man's closet But the menu done changed Vomit ain't on it And neither are the gods That I was serving in the audience Bump the applause It only clogs the human conscious And the ability to process the obvious No man is God And neither are his products But the pile of the objects We compile in the firepit To mold and make monsters Is preposterous Throw a crown on it Call it divine And make men puppets God's prints all around us But at the core of it We want the praise Which is opposite of giving it Think a 'bit Then tell me young lord Who really is the hypocrite? Dead architects with only artifacts? Or the fact that God proves himself In all nature's specs With or without your recollection Pay attention Listen [Verse 2:] These hands have laid more bricks Than you could imagine But there is no innocence in Diligence so work can often Convert to bragging It's that slight slip that gets A tripped up in the first place The minute success is tasted We instantly seek more praise It comes from the lips Of the layman and is wrongly Aimed at the stage Constantly craving sips Of compliments carving Our confidence But it's all meaningless Intravenously feeding us This poison that keeps on leading us Down this deadly path Where conceit and deceit meet And sin creeps in,... So we begin to sing the same Songs that the not so strong Saints sang Standing around babbling on Brick by brick building a tower Of babel around the borders Of Babylon, making us believe That we're bigger than what We really are when All we are is dust Trust that God is a jealous God With every right to deal with us But because God is all powerful And gracious instead of Devouring us and crushing us He tears down those tall towers To save us
