- Grains Of Wrath Lyrics / with translationsBack in '83, a man came to me
And he told me, "Son
Our way of life is done"
But I was only young
With an eye to the fields
Speculators and yields rotten to the core
Monoculture whores
Entered the bidding wars from distant shores
I don't wanna be in the land
Known as destitute and free
With the grains of wrath
Blazing a path from sea to shining sea
Oh, the sinuous trails of concrete and rails
And exhausted roars
Population wars setting our future course
Yeah, is profit and greed
The only conceit on a scale between
Mere prosperity and inhumanity?
It may well be but
I don't wanna be in the land
Known as destitute and free
With the grains of wrath
Blazing a path from sea to shining sea
Shine on, I don't wanna be in the land
Known as destitute and free
With the grains of wrath
Blazing a path from sea to shining sea
Oh, oh, oh, shine on
And he told me, "Son
Our way of life is done"
But I was only young
With an eye to the fields
Speculators and yields rotten to the core
Monoculture whores
Entered the bidding wars from distant shores
I don't wanna be in the land
Known as destitute and free
With the grains of wrath
Blazing a path from sea to shining sea
Oh, the sinuous trails of concrete and rails
And exhausted roars
Population wars setting our future course
The only conceit on a scale between
Mere prosperity and inhumanity?
It may well be but
I don't wanna be in the land
Known as destitute and free
With the grains of wrath
Blazing a path from sea to shining sea
Shine on, I don't wanna be in the land
Known as destitute and free
With the grains of wrath
Blazing a path from sea to shining sea
Oh, oh, oh, shine on

✔️
When we take a closer look at its interpretation, the band's song named 'Grains of Wrath' is an expression of Bad Religion's protest against the devasting consequences of profit-centered monoculture in the society, which is represented by the 'grains of wrath' that are scattered over the earth. The song, through the use of powerful imagery, leads the listener to a strong conclusion of the greed's depriving effect on humanity and the rejecting of wealth as a god; thus, the reversal of a future made of wars for the sake of profit and conflicts for living space is announced. Grains of wrath lyrics mainly convey social criticism, anger, angst, despair and introspection. On the other hand, loss of morality has been made synonymous with greed and exploitation and the longing for a better world are also represented in the song. The lyrics examine certain socio-political problems and deliver slams on the practices of greed and exploitation that sometimes require parental assistance for children of younger age to comprehend. Notably, however, there is no profane language, no violence, and no adult content that could possibly justify a more demanding rating.
