LYRICS
In the day when the overlords overshadow
These are the days the overlords overthrow themselves
Stripping himself naked of pride and wealth
In the day when Hubris meets Nemesis
They eat themselves leaving us (innocent and righteous)
From chasing their own tail… to The End of the tale
CHORUS
Overlord overload
Under the weight of their own hoard
Overlord overload
Under the wait of the director’s board
In the day when Earth is inherited by the meek
These are days when love shall speak
Cloaking Herself naked with the pride of nature’s hide
Overlord Overload.mp3

Psalm 37
1 Do not fret because of those who are evil
or be envious of those who do wrong;
2 for like the grass they will soon wither,
like green plants they will soon die away.
9 For those who are evil will be destroyed,
but those who hope in the Lord will inherit the land.
10 A little while, and the wicked will be no more;
though you look for them, they will not be found.
11 But the meek will inherit the land
and enjoy peace and prosperity.
12 The wicked plot against the righteous
and gnash their teeth at them;
13 but the Lord laughs at the wicked,
for he knows their day is coming.
Matthew 5
4 Blessed are those who mourn,
for they will be comforted.
5 Blessed are the meek,
for they will inherit the earth.
6 Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness,
for they will be filled.
