Home Alone

[rayheinrich]

That Julian Barnes quote reminded me of this from
'Washed in the blood of the lamb' by Vinnie Paz

...
Was washed in the blood of the lamb
Whoever touches my hand gonna leave enough blood in the sand
I was washed in the blood of the lamb
Whoever fuck with my fam suffering, a motherfucker should scram

Slaughter anything I get my hands on
Inside the Church of Anton with bloody pants on
I was in the land of Israel and heard ram’s horn
I was in the sand with Ishmael and fought the sandstorm
I’m just waiting for the raven to thaw
Cause I don’t argue with Mesopotamian law
I submit my will and faith into the grace of Allah
And the Mayan calendar say it’s erasing us all
The four-fifth you should see this thing, it’s berserk
And y’all are royalty inside a fucking kingdom of dirt
How are y’all original when y’all ain’t think of it first?
I just wish I could put everything I think into verse
But instead I decide to drink in a Russian bar
I’m Rasputin, I’m influencing a Russian Tsar
I’m Dave Lombardo on drums, leave the percussion scarred
I drink the bottle to the bottom, put my trust in God
...


Hey, bartender, thaw me another raven.
(Hermes to be specific.)
