CJ Bolland - The Prophet lyrics

CJ Bolland - The Prophet - length 8:41
from The Analogue Theatre (1996)
Speech sample from The Last Temptation of Christ (1988)

I'm here to tear down everything around you
and you know what I'm going to replace it with?
something new.
god.
the world of god.
so take your bread and give it to the poor
what difference does it matter what you own?
you have gold and silver, it's going to rot
and that rot is going to eat away your heart

all of you!
there will be a flood, and there will be a fire
everything will be destroyed, but there will be a new ark, riding on that fire
and i hold the keys and i open the door
and i decide who goes in and who doesn't

3:01
the world of god xN
come with me

5:01
you think god belongs only to you?
he doesn't.
god's an immortal spirit who belongs to everybody
to the whole world!
you think you're special?
God is not an Israelite
(crowd)
God is coming
well i'm telling you it's too late
he's already here
i'm him!
and i'm going to baptize everybody.
with fire!
(crowd)

6:04 come with me
