In my mind I was on the six hundred-sixty six-floor;
In Hades
Things weren't well
I need help Satan's elevator got me
so elevated, escalated, heightened, high, increased, all jacked up, raised
I keep pushing the seventh button but the door keeps shut it doesn't open
This moving box extreme, full, hot I'm maximized, peaked, sky-high, utmost lost
Trapped in this electric box that keeps moving at the speed of light
I'm falling, falling scared so hearts pounding I am crying
Sweating think I'm dying vertigo spinning
Doors not opening Satan's still laughing
I'm trapped in a here open up the door
Finally Completed I concluded done ended, finished,
The elevator button has loosened it's unlit seven has lighted up
I've accomplished, achieved, attained, compassed, realized
My freedom the door now opens guess what I'm in heaven
Dead in this elevator defunct, extinct, kaput I'm absolutely expired
As I open my eyes and wipe the sweat off my brow
”DING”
I realize I'm on the seventh floor door opens I'm in heaven
