Verse 1:
It all started in the garden, when the God of all creation bargained, two days after he threw Jupiter, Saturn, and Mars in, sixth day created man
the serpent already fallen from God's plan he hated man, Let me explain
For too long this has been a mystery, listen close
let me reveal to you the devils history
See before time began, before shine and sin
the Father orchestrated all to bring honor to him
Lucifer now known as satan, God's most beautiful creation
was to bring forth the glory of God Ezekiel 28
He was covered with every precious stone
Not with a tail and a pitchfork, get that out your dome, that's all wrong
So yea heaven was his first home,
Where God was the light and shined off of all his stones
Not only that, he was created to produce them tones,
He was the hit maker for all of heavens songs
But too many pats on the back from the other angles got him lifted him
The pride in him destroyed him and as a result Got him corrupt
He chose to be rebellious so the Lord said I'm gon fix him up
Hey angels, take the lightweight and hit him up
Fell from heaven fast as lightning and was cursed to the earth and expelled forever
Rebellion bet he learned his lesson got him kicked down out of heaven, like adios for ever.
So let us pick it back up again, dealing with us again, sixth day creation of man
The Lords plan, so immense, God’s glance was so advanced, took dust from the earth formed man with his hands and he called it grand
Put him in the garden, purpose, have dominion
Imagine along with me, this is all before the sinning
When being naked is perfectly legal, freedom to fly around like the eagle
Have any tree you want just not the one where you'll know good and evil.
If you touch it you gon die, if you touch it you gon die, if you touch it you gon die
But in the shadows lurks the evil who was was waiting to deceive ‘em
“Instead of listening to God, you can be his equal”
So they took the lethal, and that was that
I mean that was death, the rest of that
Lucifer turned satan bait em
The whole time they conversated with him he slayed ‘em, and caged them, enslaved em, in ways they never imagined, they would ever engage in, yea he straight up played em, such a bad situation
So here comes God, Adam where you at?
“Once second Lord, I'm not dressed yet”
But you've been naked so the fact that you can see now tells me you've been hanging around that same tree that I told you not to be around
And the wages of sin is death
Which really simply means that the payment for sin is death
But not just a physical death, I'm talking a spiritual death
Separated from God forever, now hell is deserved
But it don't stop with Adam, we inherit the curse
To dwell in hell when we leave the earth, don't believe me? Read the verse
Romans 5:12 tells that we goin all see the hearse
Unless we meet Jesus first, because he defeated the curse
Romans 5:12 tells that we goin all see the hearse
Unless we meet Jesus first, because he defeated the curse
Chorus:
I'm un esteemed know what I mean I was born in this world unclean, and this is why we need a savior, Christ our savior
Bitten by the curse of sin, because Adam was the first to sin, he got us in, this is why we need a savior, Christ our savior
I been redeemed, know what I mean? Christ has wiped the slate clean, he is Christ our savior, Christ our savior
Destroyed our sin in his own body buried them then he rose on the third to just justify me, and guide me.
He is Christ our savior, Christ our savior
