Lyrics & Translation
English
I was not created in the likeness of a fraud
Your hell is something scary, I prefer a loving God
We are not the center of this funny universe
And what is worse, I do not serve in fear of such a curse
Shallow be thy game, 2000 years, look in the mirror
You play the game of shame and tell your people live in fear
A rival to the way you see, the Bible let him be
I'm a threat to your survival and your control company
You'll never burn me, you'll never burn me
I will be your heretic, yeah
You can't contain me, I am the power free
Truth belongs to everybody
To anyone who's listening, you're not born into sin
The guilt they try and give you, puke it in the nearest bin
Missionary madness sweep up culture with a broom
Trashing ancient ways is par for the course, it's fuckin' rude
To think that you're above the laws of nature, what a joke
Purple sashes, feeding masses, smoke on which to choke
I might be a monkey when it comes to being holy
Fundamental hatred get down on your knees and
You'll never burn me, you'll never burn me
I will be your heretic, yeah
You can't contain me, I am the power free
Truth belongs to everybody
Oh yeah
I was not created in the likeness of a fraud
Your hell is something scary, I prefer a loving God
We are not the center of this funny universe
And what is worse, I do not serve in fear of such a
You'll never burn me, you'll never burn me
I will be your heretic, yeah
You can't contain me, I am the power free
Truth belongs to everybody
You'll never burn me, you'll never burn me
I will be your heretic, yeah
You can't contain me, I am the power free
Truth belongs to everybody

Shallow Be Thy Game (traducción LyricVerse Team)
No fui creado a semejanza de un fraude
Tu infierno es algo aterrador, prefiero un Dios amoroso
No somos el centro de este universo gracioso
Y lo que es peor, no sirvo por miedo a tal maldición
Superficial sea tu juego, 2000 años, mira en el espejo
Juegas el juego de la vergüenza y le dices a tu gente que viva con miedo
Un rival a tu forma de ver, la Biblia déjalo ser
Soy una amenaza para tu supervivencia y tu compañía de control
Nunca me quemarás, nunca me quemarás
Seré tu hereje, sí
No puedes contenerme, soy el poder libre
La verdad pertenece a todos
Para cualquiera que escuche, no naces en pecado
La culpa que intentan darte, vomítala en el cubo más cercano
La locura misionera barre la cultura con una escoba
Destrozar las costumbres antiguas es lo normal, es jodidamente grosero
Pensar que estás por encima de las leyes de la naturaleza, qué broma
Fajas moradas, alimentando masas, humo con el que ahogarse
Podría ser un mono cuando se trata de ser santo
Odio fundamental, ponte de rodillas y
Nunca me quemarás, nunca me quemarás
Seré tu hereje, sí
No puedes contenerme, soy el poder libre
La verdad pertenece a todos
Oh sí
No fui creado a semejanza de un fraude
Tu infierno es algo aterrador, prefiero un Dios amoroso
No somos el centro de este universo gracioso
Y lo que es peor, no sirvo por miedo a tal
Nunca me quemarás, nunca me quemarás
Seré tu hereje, sí
No puedes contenerme, soy el poder libre
La verdad pertenece a todos
Nunca me quemarás, nunca me quemarás
Seré tu hereje, sí
No puedes contenerme, soy el poder libre
La verdad pertenece a todos
