Lyrics
[Schaffer] You abuse and you victimize But you're dignified, so you justify It's in your eyes where deception lies So you criticize with cruel eyes Father in black, black as sin Pure hypocrisy to no end Condemnning me and my fellow man I live my life among the damned [Chorus] I've gotta do as you say, not as you do You're a man of the cloth, I'm comin' for you You say you can save me, cleanse me of my sin A holy predator, the wolf in sheepskin Disciples of the lie Breeding fear in your twisted smile Pedophile, in denial I taste revenge when I think of you A life of hell you put me through When I find you I'll take youout No remorse, you're going down You see satisfaction in my eyes I vindicate, now you die I've gotta do as you say, not as you do You're a man of the cloth, I'm comin' for you You say you can save me, cleanse me of my sin A holy predator, the wolf in sheepskin Disciples of the lie The blackness inside overwhelms me The pain engulfs and turns to rage in me Trapped so deep in my mental hell Release the demons, set me free I've gotta do as you say, not as you do You're a man of the cloth, I'm comin' for you You say you can save me, cleanse me of my sin A holy predator, the wolf in sheepskin
