The Lie
A Blanket of deception tightly coils the minds of most,
Unless you are enraptured by the Holy Ghost.
Pockets of disaster
Echo in their ears
Bondage comes through doubt, unbelief and fear.
Droplets of truth,
Make up one big ocean of lies
While injections of a suddenly
Keep most at stand by.
What will you do when the system fails?
When everything you’re banking on bails
What will you do when the pain outweighs the fun?
When calamity hits you
And there is nowhere to run.
Dreams are in the pavement
Your Security is in the breeze
Your only hope for survival
Will require you on your knees.
Self-righteous pursuits
Mindless endeavors
Not once did you question
Where your soul will rest in Forever.
Bought into the fallacy
That this life is actually reality
Driven by a system set on fire
Hailing a Father whose name means liar.
Your enlightenment is an imitation
He is one of God’s creations
Stringing you along for his own stimulation.
While you’re puffed up in your attire
He’s laughing at what you have allowed to transpire.
Lust for more
Opened that door
I would think twice about what he really has in store.
For the hour is just about here
And you grin thinking you got nothing to fear
Oh, foolish generation
You’re a product of vile manipulation
Blinded by the masses
I pray to God you grasp this
What does it profit a man if he gains the whole world
Then loses his only soul
you know it’s an eternal black hole?
All your intelligence made you quite dumb
You lost sight of the truth for a temporary lump sum
If your breathing there is still time
But most have a reprobate mind
The consequences for their iniquity
May cost them their everlasting victory.
