Diplomatic Immunity
[Verse]
Violence looks impressive
Till it meets the prince of peace
That's when muscle turns to jelly
And armour turns to fleece
One grew by overreaching
One consumed by holy fire
One claimed diplomatic immunity
The other built a funeral pyre
[Chorus]
Standing on a podium
Pretending you are woke
That corruption is almighty
While the record quietly spoke
Your books are cooked
Your storyline is broke
I am here to serve you notice
Your diplomatic immunity's...
finally been revoked
[Verse]
Diplomatic immunity
Won't protect you from the truth
You can hide behind a lie
But consequence sees straight through
The shield you hide behind
Won’t change a fate that’s sealed
Natural immunity only belongs
To those who truly healed.
[Bridge]
You expected me to retaliate
You expected me to fight
But wisdom knows that violence
Cannot turn a wrong to right
[Chorus]
Standing on a podium
Pretending you are woke
That corruption is almighty
While the record quietly spoke
Your books are cooked
Your storyline is broke
I am here to serve you notice
Your diplomatic immunity's...
finally been revoked
[Interlude]
[Verse]
One tribe pursued ritual sacrifice
The other chose refinement
One discovered far too late
That power comes from alignment
You came prepared for battle
With silo’s full of rockets
Bringing every ancient accusation
While turning out empty pockets
[Bridge]
You expected me to retaliate
You expected me to fight
But wisdom knows that violence
Is just a fools delight
[Chorus]
Standing on a podium
Pretending you are woke
That corruption is almighty
While the record quietly spoke
Your books are cooked
Your storyline is broke
I am here to serve you notice
Your diplomatic immunity's...
finally been revoked.
