Seven Ways Scattered
From Deuteronomy 28:7
Coming so crazed like cyclones...twisting and tearing
Screaming like sirens...yelping and yelling
They come fortified...so ugly and unholy
Until my father sets them to fire
Sent away seven ways scattered
Making the most of a miserable man
so many perilous plots from those predators plans
Staying lost in the land of lunacy and lies
Seeking false fortune and fame
They drive into dead ends meeting doom as they die
From the sand to the sky I see nothing but vipers and vultures
My father soon sets them to fire
Sent away seven ways scattered
They come strong like mad monsters...soon made into mice
They smile sick like the sun...saying naughty is nice
They take all they can till your treasure is took
Snatched up like a pebble from hard hands made of hooks
Still my faith is my fate and this day is divine
Enemies rise just to beat and to batter
My father sets them to fire
Sent away now forever seven ways scattered
