AMOS - A Famine in the Land by Bro H

Verse 1 The markets open, scales are false The poor are sold for less than bread The rich grow fat on empty truth While lies are easier to spread They rush the Sabbath, hate the pause Can’t wait to sell, can’t wait to trade Religion’s just a weekly show Then back to profits that they made Chorus There’s a famine in the land Not for water, not for bread But no one hears the Word anymore Just echoes in their head Verse 2 They wander city after town From sea to sea they search for truth But every voice just feeds the lie And dresses darkness up as proof The prophets spoke — they shut them down “Don’t say those things, don’t speak that way” Now silence fills the empty space Where truth once used to stay Chorus There’s a famine in the land… Verse 3 Big buildings filled with polished words Smooth talk that never cuts the bone They preach a god that never judges A kingdom built to serve the throne They call it grace, they call it love But never speak of right or wrong The people starve while thinking They’ve been feasting all along Verse 4 The strong grow weak, the young collapse No strength to stand, no truth to hold They drank from wells that weren’t alive And now their hearts are cold Bridge You had the Word… you turned away You closed your ears… day after day Final Chorus There’s a famine in the land You traded truth for something dead Now you search and search again But there’s nothing left to be said
