Verse 1
Run into the desert
With no hesitation
Moses sang a song
To the children of a nation
Blood upon the altar
Marked between their eyes
With the law their hands were tied
Obey or choose to die
Pre-Chorus
And the wheels keep turning
Underneath the sun
People wait for prophecy
Not knowing it is done
Chorus
Yeah the mark of the beast
Was the blood of the Lamb
And the antichrist walking
Is the one who don’t understand
They wait on a kingdom
Already within
Still searching for the devil
While he’s wearing human skin
Verse 2
At the beginning of the journey
The ending had begun
Waiting for what’s coming
Though it’s already been done
The prophets spoke a mystery
About a man of sin
Who is one day coming
But has already been
Pre-Chorus
Every generation
Looking toward the sky
Blind to their reflection
Standing right before their eyes
Chorus
Yeah the mark of the beast
Was the blood of the Lamb
And the antichrist walking
Is the one who don’t understand
They carry crosses proudly
Yet never enter in
Still fighting over heaven
While the war is within
Bridge (spoken / half sung)
“Anti means replacement…”
In the name of Christ they went
Following the arrow
That never found intent
The man who missed the target
Shot blind into the dark
Now everybody’s searching
Trying to escape the mark
Final Chorus
Yeah the mark of the beast
Was the blood of the Lamb
Religion built a prison
And called it holy land
The kingdom wasn’t waiting
It was buried deep within
And the antichrist expected
Already came and went
