Evermore

In a world of justice
There would be no more war
Isaac had the promise
But Ismael wanted more
So through the centuries
A brother sought for blood
Fury was his envy
Forever would he
Kill his kin, steal his line
Take your land for mine
No love spared, none can find
Blood stains Abram's vine!

Evermore, still at war
Fight with rage, through the ages
Evermore, still at war
Turn the page forevermore

In a world of vengeance
And hatred beyond words
One seeks to obliterate
The other seeks rebirth
And so it was that Isaac
Returned to his land once more
But Ishmael would retaliate
Seven armies would declare his war
Kill his kin, family dies
Kill your own bloodline
No love spared, who can find?
Does Abraham want his sons to die?

Father sat me down
Beside the fire's glow
And told me
What the God of Abram
Promised that He'd do
(Years ago, now)
I believed him as he talked
But the evil one would cause division
Family grew apart
As a man with sons of my own
I wouldn't have believed
How bad it would get here at home
War's a killer, And they that love it
Will have their consequence
Like they did, the Romans fled
Who fell like a cut-down man
When you torture and murder
Your soul is required
