"My Lord Who Hums" lyrics

"My Lord Who Hums"

Listen to the stories of
The people who once gave me their love
If I am killed and not understood
You will never learn what you could

Make me of bronze and gold, ivory
And then place me upon the chests of the brave
This amulet prays
Each soldier to say

I am the lord of the flies
Do you remember my name
I am the god of the city of
Akron, the land of Canaan
I will conduct and sway your souls
With divinity that's been granted me

Why have you altered your view of my offer
Hum, I hum...
I hear you

Listen to the stories of
The people who once gave me their love

Big fly does council from this perch
No more the answers you need search for
The future
I whisper

I have been swallowed and rebirthed
I am your kin we will convert
The circle turns and the circle fades
And then shines again revivicates
Death is not the end of you
And you cannot run from this it's true

Your fear won't help you
Watch me pray and honor all
Live brave must share this place
