In His Name or Not

 This is a 2006 fragment that I have lying around here since the abandonened "Norden" album, The four songs we completed were then "released" as the "F-Nord" EP. I still believe that these four songs are the pinnacle of CREAMVIII and it is very sad that Sascha left in the middle of the production. Well, of course there were many many songs more that we wanted to record. And this is one of them. It's about religion in general when it is used as means of power.

Again, this is the AI version. AI did not let me use the term "God" (the original line was "In the name of God") which shows that you are not free to express what you think with AI.

Nevertheless, here it is: 

In His Name or Not

composition and lyrics 2004-2024 by Boris Brosowski

(In his name or not)
You hurt and kill the children
(In his name or not)
You deny and you deceive
(In his name or not)
I've come to my own conclusion
(In his name or not)
That I cannot believe
 


(In her name or not]
You became part of the system
(In her name or not)
A system that I despise
(In her name or not)
You spread lies like false wisdom
(In her name or not)
And you will never never get me alive


As we came to dance 
As we came to pray
As we tried to hide 
The dark away

As we lit the candles
As we licked our wounds
As we burnt much brighter
Than the darkest tomb


(In their name or not)
You've painted war as holy
(In their name or not)
You've stained the sky with fear
(In their name or not)

As we came to dance 
As we came to pray
As we tried to hide 
The dark away

As we lit the candles
As we licked our wounds
As we burnt much brighter
Than the darkest tomb

You've fueled the fire slowly
(In their name or not)
You've turned truth so unclear
(In their name or not)
Yet we stand here still defiant
With hearts that won’t break,
