The Verbal Surgeon - Father of the Land lyrics

I picked up grains of sand spit in my hand Thought of civilization and life began I'm the general in command the father of the land I put forth fundamentals for colonies to span Perfect linguistics and a universal currency Create remedies for treating medical emergencies I granted man the will to gain knowledge I gave man knees to kneel and pay homage I showed the Egyptians the power in the sky How to harvest it and build temples for the great who've died I showed man the point of living and his purpose I showed man how the truths hidden beneath the surface I've made a world with the essentials to survive I taught the early tribes about hunting to stay alive I showed even the blind how to see beyond the lies I made it so the weak will overcome with time and rise The father of the land carrying out my plans Creating forms of life spreading knowledge to the damned The founder of creation who paved the foundation For evolution and biological cla**ification I created human traits for identification And gave you personalities to give you separation I then placed lungs in your body for easy respiration As I watched man turn his habitat into a nation As the worlds revolved I've witnessed all the generations Evolve and adapt to the environment that they are placed in I put disease on the planet to control population And made it transmittable through acts of copulation The father of the land in cold flesh I stand Splitting apart your genetic strand with my bare hands In the beginning there was only me the deity Supreme power in my hands creating all the land you see The author of history holding knowledge of the future Holding the world together like my hands were surgical suture
