The Sword Verses Lyrics


A fraction of rogue clerics with resolute agendas

Misanthropic denouncements of all contrary creeds

Targeting the alienated, the confused and dispossessed

Those susceptible to control

Destined to become soldiers

Poisonous invective expressed through silver tongues

Seducing empty vessels

Hateful diatribes that masquerade as righteous and noble

Fanning the flames of discontent

Tirades of opposition provoke virtuous indignation

The sacred texts are twisted

Subject to justified perversion

Abrogation exaggerates the status of the sword verses

Proclamation condoning violence as a means to vanquish the kuffar

To expunge the earth

Smiting all non-believers

Deluded minds manipulated through false interpretations

Heeding the clarion call to arms

That emanate from virtual minarets

Misled by holy deception and empty promises of paradise

Compelled by the burning ambition for glory

Achieved through the ultimate sacrifice

The sacred texts are twisted

Subject to justified perversion

Abrogation exaggerates the status of the sword verses

Proclamation condoning violence as a means to vanquish the kuffar

To expunge the earth

Smiting all non-believers

Devotion to indiscriminate bloodshed

Renders misplaced dreams of heaven obsolete

Division incites further enmity

Senseless martyrdom remains irrelevant
