Revelation 13:7
And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations.

and that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.
"Eye in the Sky" is a gripping, dystopian rap anthem that delves into the chilling reality of a world under the Antichrist’s control, inspired by Revelation 13:7 and 13:17. The song paints a haunting picture of the tribulation period, where technology becomes the ultimate weapon of oppression. Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), AI surveillance, street cameras, satellites, and even cell phones create an omnipresent digital prison, leaving nowhere to hide for the faithful saints who refuse to bow to the regime.
The lyrics vividly narrate the relentless pursuit of believers, weaving a tale of courage, faith, and resilience amidst an unyielding technological onslaught. The "Eye in the Sky" represents the ever-watchful systems that track and report every move, turning neighbors into spies and tools of oppression.
Each verse immerses the listener in the saints' struggle—evading drones, navigating a world where loyalty to faith is punished, and praying for strength as the weight of persecution bears down. The pre-chorus and chorus emphasize the suffocating nature of this digital dictatorship, hammering home the idea that no corner of the world is safe from the Antichrist’s gaze.
Yet, the song offers a glimmer of hope. Despite the unrelenting oppression, the saints' faith remains unbroken. The outro triumphantly declares their spiritual victory, reminding listeners that the final story is not written by the oppressors but by the risen Son, Jesus Christ.
With its heavy themes, intense imagery, and pulse-pounding narrative, "Eye in the Sky" is both a warning and a testament to the enduring power of faith in the darkest times.
Lyrics
[Verse]
In the shadows, they move, trying to stay unseen,
Under the radar, they run, to escape the machine.
Drones in the air, tracking every step they take,
Eyes in the sky, searching for every move they make.
Street cams, satellites, watching from above,
In a world controlled by fear, there's no room for love.
The AI's mind, cold, calculating, and precise,
Tracking down the saints, paying the ultimate price.
[Verse]
The Antichrist's grip, tightening every day,
With every heartbeat, they feel the heavy sway.
Local cops on patrol, enforcing the decree,
Turning neighbors into spies, there's no loyalty.
The faithful hold their ground, their faith is their shield,
But the technology is ruthless, won't let them yield.
From the heavens above, the drones hover near,
In the silence, they pray, but still, they fear.
[Pre-Chorus]
Everywhere they turn, there's nowhere to hide,
In this digital cage, they can't confide.
The watchers are relentless, their pursuit so high,
Under the Antichrist's eye, they can't deny.
[Chorus]
(Eye in the sky, never blinking, always watching,)
Hunting down the saints, no escaping, it's unrelenting.
(Every corner, every screen, there's no place to flee,)
Under the eye in the sky, they can't be free.
[Verse]
The public's eyes, turned cold, reporting every sight,
In this new order, there's no wrong or right.
Every phone, every lens, becomes a tool to trace,
The saints stand strong, but they quicken their pace.
In the face of danger, they whisper silent prayers,
For deliverance from this world of digital snares.
Their faith unshaken, they await the final call,
Knowing in the end, the kingdom will fall.
[Break]
The satellites gleam, casting shadows on the ground,
A web of surveillance, where no safe haven’s found.
The algorithms sift through whispers and through cries,
Hunting down the faithful, under watchful skies.
Unmanned drones hum, patrolling the dead of night,
Piercing through the darkness with their unholy light.
But the saints hold firm, their hearts refuse to break,
For they trust the promise, and the path they take
[Pre-Chorus]
Everywhere they turn, there's nowhere to hide,
In this digital cage, they can't confide.
The watchers are relentless, their pursuit so high,
Under the Antichrist's eye, they can't deny.
[Chorus]
(Eye in the sky, never blinking, always watching, )
Hunting down the saints, no escaping, it's unrelenting.
(Every corner, every screen, there's no place to flee, )
Under the eye in the sky, they can't be free.
[Verse]
In the darkest hour, they hold onto the light,
Knowing the truth, they keep up the fight.
Their faith is tested, their strength wears thin,
Yet they hold on, refusing to give in.
[Outro]
The eye sees all, but they won't lose their soul,
In this battle, they know they're part of the whole.
The final chapter's written, but the story's not done,
In the end, they'll stand, under the risen Son.
