rest of the lyrics (they fit in the same way

as above) :

oppression

you seek population control

oppression

to divide and to conquer is your goal

oppression

I swear that hatred is your home

oppression

you just won't leave bad enough alone

but oppression

I won't let you near me

oppression

you shale learn to fear me

oppression

I don't see how you sleep

oppression

for your bleeding conscience I weep

oppression

you may have the dollar on your side

but oppression

from the gospel truth you cannot hide

and oppression

I won't let you near me

oppression

you shall learn to fear me

oppression

you shall fear me
