Manifest Destiny Lyrics - Dri

Manifest destiny 

More blood on the hands of Christ 

They called themselves Christians 

And gave themselves the rights 

Disguised as missionaries 

They were really after gold 

Many Indians died for that 

How many's never told 

Manifest destiny 

Manifest destiny 

Forever moving onward 

Said they were guided from above 

Actually driven by hate 

Disguised as love 

But all their false love 

Can't disguise true hate 

And the racist diplomacy 

Of the Church and the State 

Manifest destiny 

Manifest destiny 

The Church must be rich 

With all that gold 

But they'll never return 

All that they stole 

It sits in a vault 

Built just for gold 

And there it will sit forever 

Because it never gets old 

Manifest destiny 

Manifest destiny
