Up ahead in the distance I can hear the cannon blast

Questioning who killed the king still

echoing from the past

Freedom rings the bullet slings shot

out into the night

Baby's dead the headline read

who's gonna stop the fight

Let the lightening flash

and let the thunder rumble

Let it burn the flesh of the

proud and humble

Let the earth take its turn

and burst at the seams

in my redemption dream

Who cares if Armageddon's coming

we lit the fires and started running

Just like the children who carry the blame

Who brought the mission

burning down in flames

Throwing stones, stepping on a crack

Oh no, your mama can never take you back

into the womb the break was clean

in my redemption dream

How many days how many nights

How many souls, How many lives

We take the chain and break the chain

let's make a change

in my redemption dream

When does the nightmare stop

when does the dream begin

go ask the street vendor

"Hey, when does the fruit stop rotting?"

The prince of peace was overthrown

by a seductive king

The olive branch when the dove was slain

washed away downstream

Take the chain and break the chain

and make a change

In my redemption dream
