Consequences Lyrics - Something Wicked This Way Comes - Iced Earth

As human beings, we're a complex thing 

Sometimes so beautiful, other times so vain 

We've built an Empire 

the blood is on our hands 

Genocide and the chains that bind 

The consequences ahead 

Oh. you ought to know 

Oh. you ought to know 

Wrote about in history as if it's all O.K. 

A race of people murdered, 

another one enslaved 

Now our world crumbles, 

it's happening within 

Open your eyes and realize 

The world we're living in 

Oh, you ought to know 

Oh, you ought to know 

If we could focus on important things 

Live and let live true freedom 

not everyone's the same 

No more war for your god, 

No more war for your race, 

It's our world, It's what we make it 

Make it a better place 

Oh, you ought to know 

Oh, you ought to know 

We can change the world that we're living in 

Live and let live true freedom 

Let the reign begin
