Slayer - Cult Lyrics






Oppression is the Holy Law
In God I distrust
In time His monuments will fall
Like ashes to dust
Is war and creed the master plan?
The Bible's where it all began
Its propaganda sells despair
And spreads the virus everywhere

[Refrain:]
Religion is hate
Religion is fear
Religion is war
Religion is rape
Religion's obscene
Religion's a whore

The pestilence of Jesus Christ
There never was a sacrifice
No man upon the crucifix
Beware the cult of purity
Infectious imbecility
I've made my choice
666!

[Solo - Hanneman]

Corruption breeds the pedophile
Don't pray for the priest
Confession finds the lonely child
God preys on the weak
You think your soul can still be saved
I think you're fucking miles away
Scream out loud, here's where you begin
Forgive me Father for I have sinned!

[Refrain:]
Religion is hate
Religion is fear
Religion is war
Religion is rape
Religion's obscene
Religion's a whore

The target's fucking Jesus Christ
I would've lead the sacrifice
And nailed him to the crucifix
Beware the cult of purity
Infectious imbecility
I've made my choice
666!

Jesus is pain
Jesus is gore
Jesus is the blood
That's spilled in war
He's everything
He's all things dead
He's pulling on the trigger
Pointed at your head!

Through the fear you're sold into the fraud
Revelation,
Revolution,
I see through your Christ illusion!

[Solo - King]

The war on terror just drags along
My war with God is growing strong
His propaganda sells despair
And spreads this violence everywhere

[Refrain:]
Religion is hate
Religion is fear
Religion is war
Religion is rape
Religion's obscene
Religion's a whore

There is no fucking Jesus Christ
There never was a sacrifice
No man upon the crucifix
Beware the cult of purity
Infectious imbecility
I've made my choice
666!

    Oppression is the holy law
    In God I distrust
    Italic monuments will fall
    Like ashes to dust
    It's war and creed the master plan
    The battle's where it all began
    It's propaganda shouts despair
    And sends this virus everywhere

    Religion is hate
    Religion is fear
    Religion is war
    Religion is rape
    Religion is obscene
    Religion is a whore

    The pestilence of Jesus Christ
    There never was a sacrifice
    No man who hung the crucifix
    Beware the call for purity
    Infections their facility
    I've made my choice
    666!

    Carussa Green's a pedophile
    No praying for the priest
    Confession finds a lonely child
    Now preys on the weak
    You think your soul can still be saved
    I think you're fucking miles away
    Scream out loud, here's where you begin
    Forgive me Father for I have sinned!

    Religion is hate
    Religion is fear
    Religion is war
    Religion is rape
    Religion is obscene
    Religion is a whore

    The target's fucking Jesus Christ
    The one I'd love to sacrifice
    I'd nail him to the crucifix
    Beware the call for purity
    Infections their facility
    I've made my choice
    666!

    Jesus is pain
    Jesus is gore
    Jesus is the blood that is spilled in war
    He's everything
    He's all things dead
    He's pulling down the trigger pointed at your head!
    The fear your shoulded to the front
    Revelation, Revolution,
    I see through your cracked illusion!

    The war on terror just drags along
    My holy god it's growing strong
    It's propaganda shouts despair
    And sends this virus everywhere

    Religion is hate
    Religion is fear
    Religion is war
    Religion is rape
    Religion is obscene
    Religion is a whore

    There is no fucking Jesus Christ
    There never was a sacrifice
    No man upon the crucifix
    Beware the call for purity
    Infections their facility
    I've made my choice
    666

  2. A.... ....

    Note the song is called cult, not religion.

    Hence this song is not about religion but certain individuals who make cults.

    A.... ....

    No he is calling religion a cult...

    A.... ....

    @Erik Peterson

    Not sure I agree reading the lyrics.

  11. R.... B....

    This song isn’t attacking religion
    It’s attacking how people see/use religion

  12. T.... T....

    Sodum Romen

  13. A.... W....

    Jesus was the most anti-religious man to walk the earth. This song is about mankind using religion for their own agendas, personal or political.

  14. K.... M....

    Christians are followers, we all know this. But what if I told you .. Devil worshippers are followers too . Satanist's are just angry Christians. They're both not so different lol "two sides of the same coin"

    Maybe they don't even worship the Devil, they worship Money and just like Christians they just stick to an image because it SELLS.

    What did Jesus do to you? Did Christianity do something to you personally? Both Christians and Satanist's better listen to the words of BOTH their Masters & LIVE AND LET LIVE . Satanist's gotta stop being so overly pessimistic. And Christians must admit they don't know it all and stop being fake just to get into "Heaven"
    Heaven and Hell are two states of Mind .

  15. H.... C....

    Fuck all abrahamic religions

  43. C.... M....

    I´m Christian, but i think i feel this is only anger, lyrics, words, to demostrate a part of our feelings about life, this is only art, and this art is so cool, I play guitar death metal, and i am christian, i dont have problems with it, people who thinks this is blasphemy i smile and let it pass, whatever each one has it`s true, lets see SLAYER FINAL SHOW 6 OCTOBER, MEGADETH, ANTHRAX, PENTAGRAM CHILEAN DEATH/THRASH METAL.

  44. M.... A....

    I think Slayer slaughterz every album.. to be blessed in this life and hear great bands like Sabbath, lamb of God, suicidal tendencies & Slayer!!! I think it's righteouss to listen to evil lyrics & love God with all my heart.. there is no hell... It's lived on this world.. anywho.. my belief..

  45. T.... O....

    "religion is a whore" \m/

  46. J.... W....

    The only disappointment I have with this album is that it was not released on 6 July 2006.
    The last album was released on 11 September 2001, why not keep the trend going?!?

  47. m.... ....

    My favorite modern Slayer album. The 4 guys back together!

  48. C.... P....

    Am I like the only one who finds this artwork bad ass?

  49. N.... C....

    I found the gematria behind this album and the word is "A christ Illusion". Can i get a free shirt for uncovering the 1134

  50. S.... M....

    slayer is a facking good thing, the best gig shot of metal ever

    S.... M....

    Ajmo bre

  51. D.... J....

    Most underrated Slayer song

  52. C.... A....

    Puta madre el inicio está verdaderamente infernal

  53. e.... d....

    Intro reminds me the soundtrack of cube

  54. M.... R....

    The target's fucking Kerry King, not Jesus Christ.

  55. C.... �....

    Hey hey hey! This is offensive, okay? AND I LOVE IT !!

  69. T.... ....

  70. A.... O....

    Holy Shit!!!! I honestly gotta tell you guys - I was 16 in 1986 - I saved up my lunch money and spent it on Heavy Metal cassette tapes when I would drive my friends to the mall on Saturdays.. That was the BEST year of metal.. Master, Peace Sells, Reign in Blood, The Force, Darkness Descends, Death & Insanity, Beyond the Gates, Zombie Attack, Orgasmatron, Game Over... and so many others.. I liked South of Heaven, but it took a while. SitA I really never "made it" as a fan of that album... I saw them for the 1st & only time on that tour - and it WAS fantastic... I pretty much haven't heard a damn thing from SLAYER since that time period.. I LIKE THIS SONG!

    ..this was terribly wordy, but I hope some of you remember those albums I mentioned - find them again on Spotify or something, and listen to them again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!----
