It's
not the devil, working evil;
there's
evil everywhere, but the devil? he ain't there...
It's
not the wrath of God upon the wicked;
the
wicked do not fear, cause the Good Lord, He ain't here!
Man
has the seed, he is the Maker;
The
Stormbringer- The Undertaker...
You'll
find no ryme, no rationale;
no
logic, no reason, things just come in their own season...
The
gypsy, she don't have the secret;
her
crystal ball don't know which way your life is gonna go
Father
Time is the master of your breathing;
-but
even He don't know when you'll be leaving...
How
shall I pray [to whom am I speaking, please?]
The
Wise Man said: gotta believe, gotta believe, gotta believe...
And
what is faith [what am I supposed to believe?]
The
Wise Man said: Look inside, look outside- You decide.
Come
on, come on, make up your mind!
Won't
you please give me your reply?
Because
you're running out of time....
Cause
if you really knew what the prophet was preaching
the
righteous and the pure might be a little insecure...
For
the congregation for which He is reaching
He
will open up the door only to those who can afford
His
words of wisdom; and you know they don't come cheap, babe-
Only
the humble heart is able to receive them.
