Babylon. She is the metaphor for this present world-system. She feeds on greed, lust and fear and has married oppressive religious systems to politics without principle. She has no real friends, yet has befriended many.
View her in her splendor, yet do not be deceived by her grandeur, for her time indeed is short.

FLEE FROM BABYLON: part ii
Flee from Babylon the Harlot
Jezebel never plans to change
So go--
Beckon her impaled, forlorn children
But you must call then out of range
When in the presence of the people
Her language fairs noble, freed and true
Yet in her darkened stables
Her harlotry ensues
You, who persecute the faithful
Martyr those full of faith and true
Yet the wrath of the Lamb
Beholds, and waits for you
Though at east you float now upon the waves
Your is a sinking ship
The holy know it's prophesied
That the sea will be no more
And the fires you've enveloped
others in
Is what's for you in store
Gold and Uranium were yours
The scales you fail not bend
But in this final hour
The battle you'll not win
