AGXXX Wake UP (Sheep No More)

They wrote a book of ancient stories
Full of fear and golden chains
Now the world repeats their glories
Slaves are born and slaves remain

They said: "Dons seat, be pure and holy
Fasting makes you closer to the sky"
But half the year you bend so lowly
While the masters pass you by

Then they feast on cakes and honey
Fat and drunk behind the door
While you pray and give them money
Dung and rot is all you re for

Wake up! Wake up, you re not a slave!
Your heart is beating — it s not a grave
They sold you fear and called it grace
Now break the chains and leave this place!

Your mind is full of guilt and sorrow
Your only hope is to be saved
But you re the one — you re the creator!
Change the heartbeat, break the cage!

They turned the gods into dumb cattle
Gave them fear instead of might
Well played, you shepherds of the battle
Half the world is in your light
Wake up! Wake up, you re not a slave!
Your heart is beating — it s not a grave
They sold you fear and called it grace
Now break the chains and leave this place!

Bow your head and say you re sorry
Beg for mercy on your knees
Be happy with your little story
But dons syou ever question these

Everything they taught you in the temples
"Just ask for pardon, stay in line"
And wear that cross, that empty symbol
Until you run out of time

Wake up! Wake up, you re not a slave!
Your heart is beating — it s not a grave
They sold you fear and called it grace
Now break the chains and leave this place!

Wake up
You are not sheep
You are not sinners
You are gods
Wake up
