Name: Regards From The Tower
Duration: P00H04M46S
Description: Was written just before Trump’s inauguration. It’s the first Last Sunrise politically influenced song, but what seemed so blatant and repulsive was embraced by enough like-minded individuals that something had to be said. I suppose the illusion of self-made wealth and success was just too shiny of a rock to put down. His pockets are full of pyrite. But his hands are full of dreams.

Was written just before Trump’s inauguration. It’s the first Last Sunrise politically influenced song, but what seemed so blatant and repulsive was embraced by enough like-minded individuals that something had to be said. I suppose the illusion of self-made wealth and success was just too shiny of a rock to put down. His pockets are full of pyrite. But his hands are full of dreams.

lyrics

Build me a country
Worthy of my greed
Cast out the burdens
Make room for the king

Send in the S.E.A.L.s
And build me a wall
I will breathe fire
Down on you all

Vote for me Jesus
Though it's money I serve
I'm a man for the masses
I give you my word

Sell all your morals
I'll buy them up cheap
I'll gladly abuse you
And take everything

I love all you free men
Keep fighting for me
There's plenty of bullets
And plenty of meat

Make mountains of ashes
And flames to the stars
It all fills my pockets
By war mongering art

I'll dance on your grave plots
Drunk on my power
I'll sing every anthem
Keep toasting my hour

If ever I lusted
And used for my gain
Those deeds were but child's play
To the talons I've chained

I am the tyrant
you all bargained for
Now give me your money
And I'll give you war, I'll give you war
I'm your tyrant
Out killing for gold
You gave me the kingdom
There's so much in store
There's so much in store
So much in store
For my future
It's good to be me
I'll rape all you peasants
You're made for my greed
You were made for my greed
I'll take double for nothing
I've weighted the dies
Your voices mean nothing
I'm rolling snake eyes
I'm rolling snake eyes
Till All day is night
