What does “Letteth” mean? Old English to restrain
To hold back a plan, a plane of death and bane  
-
Who’s plan does “he” [1] hold back? The one who now restrains  
From the cradle to the grave, to keep the world in chains  
-
Its High Priest wears the Triple Crown [2], the hat of Dagon too  
Has a golden chalice, robes of scarlet and of blue  
-
A pantheon of “saints”, will answer all your prayers  
It will pay you off…to cover up affairs  
-
There was a time in history, called the Ages Dark  
It would burn you at the stake, if to it you did not hark  
-
Its symbol is the shinning sun, called a monstrance  
Helios, Apollo…or some such resemblance  
-
Seven Years it's going to take, to make this sewage gone  
The Lake of Fire awaits...The ***** of Babylon

[1] 2nd Thess 2:7
