Inpending Doom If Warning Comes Before Destruction-
Impending doom, if warning comes before destruction;
When is it the last warning toll?
Darkness leads the night
Impending doom, if warning comes before destruction;
When your texting and walking
Watch out for the curb and stop light
You envision the spoon in the pot;
On the stove you reach for it, guess what it’s HOT
Impending doom, if warning comes before destruction;
You smoke that cigarette yeah! It’s tight, it’s all right
Git an extra break just for it…
Something said though When God gave you lungs
He’d only wanted His breath in them
Impending doom, there’s no room
What is this thing called blindness
If I look at the sun, the moon, place myself twenty-four inches from the television
I ain’t going to move blind???
And what is this non-sense why I got to brush my teeth
They have been white since I was in my teens
Now that I’m thirty-five gingivitis got me bleeding out my mouth
And what is this biblical thing warning comes before destruction
Both my parents are now deceased
Now what is this deduction?
Impending doom, if warning comes before destruction;
