7in7, Session 4 - Day 2

VERSE 1:
“This is a dictatorship. It’s not a democracy.”
Those are the very words my, quote, “pastor” would say to me
At every staff meeting, every opportunity
It was an unstable kingdom for me

VERSE 2:
Well I moved to Haiti just after the turn of the century
And I saw tires burned, busses flipped, heard gunshots aplenty
I saw election fraud that led to a coup d’état when I was only twenty
It was an unstable kingdom to say the least

CHORUS 1:
Well I know a thing or two about a lust for power
Oh this is nothing new, the unjust devour
Everything in sight like its their birthright
From their first breath to their final hour
Unstable kingdoms and kings

VERSE 3:
There was a Chief Exec who saw the writing on the wall
Tough times ahead, someone would to take a fall
Set his predecessor up so he could say “HE dropped the ball!”
It was an unstable kingdom for all

CHORUS 1:
Well I know a thing or two about a lust for power
And this is nothing new, the unjust devour
Everything in sight like its their birthright
From their first breath to their final hour
Unstable kingdoms and kings

VERSE 4:
I saw a man shipped away in the middle of the night
By some quiet coward, no regard for wrong or right
Well there was nothing he could say, no way to put up a fight
It was an unstable kingdom alright

CHORUS 2:
Well I know a thing or two about abuse of power
And this is nothing new, the unjust devour
Everything in sight like its their birthright
From their first breath to their final hour
Unstable kingdoms and kings
Unstable kingdoms and kings
Unstable kingdoms and kings

Unstable Kingdoms
