Such Is the Heart of a Selfish Man
Such is the heart of the selfish man
If I can't have it then no one can
I'll take my sword and cut them down
I'll take my torch and burn their town
Honors son I am not
To rule this world should be my lot
Everyone and every thing
Should bow their heads and crown me king
I want mine and I will not stop
I will take the throne I will be on top
My kingdom I'll rulee with an iron hand
I'll spread my name across this land
Every man every woman every child every beast
Will feel my power and on their blood I'll feast
Love has no part in me
Compation and mercy are for the weak
Who is so selfish mean and crule
He is the carnal man in me and you
That can't be me we might all say
But it is in us in many ways
Jealousy envy racism too
Gossip and slander to name a few
How is this possible how can this be
I thought I was good with my generosity
It isn't just money or goods
It isn't just helping whenever we should
It is liveing my life by the example of Christ
By liveing for all, all of my life
Life on Purpose Live it before you lose it! ©2009
