| I don't know if it is specifically about South Africa, but the song is more about how people use religion to control the masses, ie selling Jesus. They are using it to justify whatever they want, all the while they become richer. Basically about how people who sell Jesus are hypocrites who use there power to tell you what to do while they do something different. | |
