Christian Ted Cruz Supporters Released an Insane Rap Song

Sometimes, you have to use the Devil's tools to fight the Lord's cause.

As the Christian Right loses its footing and youth church attendance continues its sharp decline, a rogue band of Christian superheroes called We Are Watchmen is out to put things right. According to their website, We Are Watchmen gets its name from Ezekiel 33:6. Their purpose, explained largely through Holocaust imagery, is to "use music and message [sic] to mobilize American Christians to civic duty." They are particularly concerned with the national debt, "Secular Humanism," and the "sixty million innocent babies murdered in the name of 'women's reproductive rights.'"

They also love Ted Cruz. Here's an excerpt from their manifesto:

We Are Watchmen is a movement that uses music and message to mobilize American Christians to civic duty. Music. Message. Movement. Just as many churches in Germany sang louder on Sunday mornings to drown out the sounds of wailing Jews in boxcars on the way to the concentration camps, the majority of pulpits and pews in the American churches have been willfully ignoring the stench of blatant evil rising in this once godly nation.

Sixty million innocent babies murdered in the name of "women's reproductive rights" since the passage of the unconstitutional Roe v. Wade. Our children and grandchildren buried in 18 trillion national fiscal operating debt. Prayer banned from schools, God banned from the public square, religious liberty under attack, as Secular Humanism usurps Christianity as the official religion of the United States. The American churches remain silent, less than 25% of the nation's Christians vote.

And what better way to right those wrongs and mobilize America's dormant Christian youth than by spitting some sick-nasty rhymes? Using a mash-up of resurrection and arsonist imagery to describe the rise of America and Cruz's presidential election, the Watchmen lead us through the conspiracy of the modern-day USA with all the dexterity of a rhyming dictionary.

Choice lyrics include:

"We are the greatest nation that's ever been implanted on the planet
We never panic, when things get rough
We put our hands up on the granite
and grind for righteousness"

"Switch off the dead news
The lame stream media, feeding us the fed stew
Collectivism: everyone's a victim, like the reds do!"

"All in for war?
All in!
Can we win?
No doubt!"
