Man Of God

[Intro: Bill Maher] When the current Pope was in his previous Vatican job He wrote a letter instructing every Catholic bishop To keep the sex abuse of minors secret until the statute of limitations ran out [Verse 1] They had high hopes for the little boy Started with a Catholic baptism for their pride and joy As the priest puts holy water on his tiny forehead life becomes grimy and morbid The parents wanted their child on the right path Dedicated church-goers at the Sunday night mass Unaware within the cathedral beneath you Steeple that baby boy would be within the reach of evil The devil’s in the man who lusts the young body It’s sacrilege, demonic, unjust, and ungodly Who knows why God lets these things happen? Or is the free will of man that gets his soul trapped in? Seven years later he’s a Catholic school student Taking the bread and the wine, the first act of communion The priest watch from the darkness of his mind Premeditated rape, the heartless grin of a crime [Hook] In the name of the Father, deliver the Son In the name of the Father, embrace the Son In the name of the Father, forsake the Son A victim straight to the man of God In the name of the Father, deliver the Son In the name of the Father, embrace the Son In the name of the Father, forsake the Son Deceived, raped by the man of God [Verse 2] A tear falls down his innocent eye Left alone in a place where innocence dies In the shadows no one could witness the crime Now he’s wishing his life would finish and die A child held tight in Satan’s clutch And the soap won’t wash away his touch Wishing he was born twisted and blind The secret hidden behind door number 6 in his mind His father’s ashamed and his mother hurts While they move this sick fuck to another church An act of vengeance has got to be for the throat Fuck a worthless apology from the Pope The soul of a dark child is now a grown man With a gun taking justice in his own hands God the priest can use a touch of faith now Cause he pulled the trigger and blew his fucking brains out [Hook]
