  • Shut your mouth
    I'm spinning it tight down south
    I'm on a raid, tie you down
    'Cause, boy, I can save you from that evil faith
    Eagles serve
    Yeah, uh huh, Mother first
    They turn you predator
    But, boy, I can save you from that evil faith

    Arms sold in balmy cities that
    May not be with us for long
    Save you from that evil faith, lay back

    Strong black vine, submission is my mission for a
    Strong black vine, you just might see that sweet Jesus
    Strong black vine, submission is my mission for a
    Strong black vine, your mission, con-concentrate

    All for a dark God
    All for the love of some evil faith
    Swollen stream
    Every drip serpents bless
    You rape Earth knowledge
    Still she would save you from your evil faith

    Bodies bathe in black gold your pleasure
    Arms sold in balmy cities that may not be with us for long
    Save you from that evil faith, lay back

    Strong black vine, submission is my mission for a
    Strong black vine, you just might see that sweet Jesus
    Strong black vine, submission is my mission for a
    Strong black vine, your mission, con-concen-

    Strong black vine, submission is my mission for a
    Strong black vine, you just might see that sweet Jesus
