lyrics

well I heard there was a secret chord

that david played and god ignored

because hes just a zombie in the sky

well it goes like this the 4th the 5th

but god don’t know he don’t exist

some character in a book said hallelujah

no gods, no masters, no gods, no masters

the great ghost in the sky that I cannot see

he decides my life and everything

but all the science in the world could overthrow him

they say that he is the truth

that science is flawed the bibles proof

but I still cant turn water into whiskey

no gods, no masters, no gods, no masters

well humans we’ve been here before

I think ive seen these lies before

And I used to believe them too did you know that?

They sent me to that Sunday school

And taught me racist sets of rules

And every breath they breathed propped up the system

No gods, no masters, no gods, masters

And there was a time when they let me know

If we don’t believe well go to hell

But that’s just a tool of control

And consciousness it don’t exist

Its just electric impulses

And when we die its empty black abyss

No gods, no masters, no gods, no masters

If there was a god above

Then people would believe in love

And then we wouldn’t blow up our neighbors

We’d start to build community

And without dogma we’d be free

It’s a peaceful and revolting battlecry

No gods, no masters, no gods, no masters
