Every Prophet In Her House
Unveiling the Perils of False Prophets: Every Prophet In Her House
Lyrics
Unholy muse
Expressing a desire for inspiration from an unconventional or impure source
Unsex me here
Requesting to remove traditional gender characteristics or constraints
Renew my shame with spite
Asking for a renewal of shame fueled by resentment
False prophets preach from neon pulpits
Criticizing insincere leaders delivering messages in a flashy manner
Sycophants swallow the spit
Highlighting the blind followers who accept the words of hypocrites
Of self-righteous hypocrites
Referring to the insincerity of self-righteous hypocrites
Purge me of bitter fruit
Desiring to be cleansed of the negative consequences of one's actions
Stripped of mortal fright
Being free from the fear of death
And beg
Requesting earnestly
And plead
Requesting desperately
And pray for your salvation
Praying for personal redemption
And weep
Expressing deep sorrow
And groan
Expressing pain and discomfort
To reap what you have sown
Experiencing the consequences of one's actions
In the beginning
Reflecting on an idealized past without pain, war, or hate
There was no pain
Contrasting with the present state of existence
There was no war
Describing the original state of existence
There was no hate
Indicating the corruption of sacred things by celestial beings
But the seraphim defiled the sacrosanct
Depicting subjugation and limitation imposed by higher powers
They bound you in chains
Describing a moment of submission and supplication
Did fall to your knees
Questioning the nature of worship and devotion
Tell me
Expressing a warning to those who have sinned
Do you worship god or worship me
Rejecting the possibility of peace for sinners
Woe to you, ye sinners
Reiterating the lack of peace for those who have sinned
To you there shall be no peace
Emphasizing the absence of peace for sinners
Woe to you, ye sinners
Portraying a sense of impending doom with no escape
To you there shall be no peace
Describing the downfall of a significant entity or system
WOE TO YOU, YE SINNERS
Repeating the warning to sinners with intensity
TO YOU THERE SHALL BE NO PEACE
Reiterating the absence of peace for sinners emphatically
Nowhere to hide
Highlighting a state of vulnerability with no escape
When Babylon is fallen
Referring to the collapse of a powerful and oppressive force
In dust and clay
Describing the aftermath of the collapse using symbolic elements
The beast has marked its prey
Indicating a predatory nature and target selection
And beg
Repeating the plea for salvation and redemption
And plead
Repeating the desperate request for salvation
And pray for your salvation
Reiterating the prayer for personal redemption
And weep
Expressing deep sorrow and sadness
And groan
Expressing pain and discomfort intensely
To reap what you have sown
Experiencing the consequences of one's actions with emphasis
Bismillah al-Rahman al-Rahim
Invoking a religious phrase suggesting the beginning of a significant event
