about
Heavily steeped in political angst, New Orleans Jazz, and the frantic growling styles of Tom Waits, "A Matter of Time" is the first single & title track off Canadian Singer-Songwriter Black Suit Devil's sophomore album. A protest song, "A Matter of Time" calls out to 'the powers that be' on the corporate & political fronts letting them know the people are waking up, taking action, and it's only a matter of time before great change comes about.
lyrics
I ain’t got the money
To satisfy your greed
I ain’t got the time
To live out your misery
That mask you’re wear,
It don’t fool me
I see right through those eyes
Into a heart that’s evil
And colder than the Northern ice
You’re like a freight train runnin’
Boy it’s just
A Matter of Time
Until those sparks start flyin’
De-railing you off the line
The people are thinking, awaking, and using their minds
Connecting the dots to your lies and exposing your crimes
Your mountains will crumble
Your empires will perish in time
At six feet under
You’ll look sharp in that suit
And that tie
Boy it’s just a matter of time
Oh yeah
Illusion of freedom
A choice between two lies
You pull your dollars from thin air
A debt forced onto the blind
Start your wars
Control the oil
And wave those flags up high
Banker thieves who fear no borders
Working for a New World Order
But your time is gonna come
Oh your time is gonna come
Your time is gonna come
But your time is gonna come
You’re like a freight train runnin’
Boy it’s just
A Matter of Time
Until the sparks start flyin’
De-railing you off the line
The people are thinking of waking and using their minds
Connecting the dots to your lies and exposing your crimes
Your mountains will crumble
Your empires will perish in time
At six feet under
You’ll sharp in that suit
And that tie
Boy it’s just a matter of time
