Forewarned

Hear the warnings that have been told in this lifetime
if you blink then you might lose your place in line
hate, greed, and jealousy rule this world
it will lead us to our decline

fighting back but it's all slipping away
you don't care if you live or die, see the day why
people seem to turn their backs and I'm left to die
fighting back but it all seems to slip away
you don't care if you live or die see the day

living life carelessly isn't wise
what if when you die you discover there's no heaven or hell
why not live this life to its fullest
there's so many things that you can't take with you

fighting back but it's all slipping away
you don't care if you live or die, see the day why
people seem to turn their backs and I'm left to die
fighting back but it all seems to slip away
you don't care if you live or die see the day

many have sheltered themselves
hiding behind shields of religion
they're storing away sins by means of confession
flushing their conscience into the sky
but what goes up will fall
