Tree of Life and Death |
In the garden of creation stands a skeletal tree |
Hanging from it’s branches afterbirth of Adam and Eve |
Blossomed in mutation rotted through centuries |
Tortured minds of heinous crimes plague God’s family |
Procreation from decay and sand |
Transmutation pains this fated land |
Lifeless earth, all love bereft |
No life left — on the tree of life and death |
Slug like dead existence, our fetid hunger breeds |
Master of future decay — sowed his deadly seed |
Root of evil ate away our fruits of destiny |
Thorns of human nature stabbed hearts of the free |
Procreation from decay and sand |
Transmutation pains this fated land |
Lifeless earth, all love bereft |
No life left — on the tree of life and death |
Ogau, Mulangam Kalumba |
Kinta, Oloron, Makaru |
Original sin |
In the garden of existence |
Hanging from temptation’s tree |
There’s a carnival of mutations |
Growing from man fated seed |
Lezn, Marasa, Chiata |
Nxambi, Osawa, Zanabary |
God’s offspring ate the apple creating lust, envy |
Sucking, puking leaches, a catastrophe of greed |
Garden of temptation, lured by serpent’s creed |
Moral desolation, man eternally diseased |
Procreation from decay and sand |
Transmutation pains this fated land |
Lifeless earth, all love bereft |
No life left — on the tree of life and death |
