The Book of Life Lyrics

They say the good time's coming, I say that time is running faster than my eyes can capture

Searching what I am after, questions only I can answer

Looking through eyes that captured pain, followed by cries of laughter

I took the bite that Adam couldn't prevent Eve from taking

It's hard to keep your faith, when Satan always keeps temptation

In front my face, I close my eyes, but I feel him inside

My heart is filled with lies, he camouflaged My sight

How can I improvise, when every move I make is documented

Your life reflects on what you do for others, how you spent it while alive

I try to do all that I should, try to do all that I could, try to do all that I would do

If I had the opportunity to give, off the strength, cause GOD gave me the opportunity to LIVE

Stuck with me through thick and thin, he gave me what I need to grow, to become a Man, I'm thankful that I know

I know a good time's coming, yeah

I know a good time's coming, yeah

I know a good time's coming, yeah

I know a good time's coming

If it's coming, I need to know when, stories begin from the start

Mine you should read from the end, Not happy with what's in my heart

Secrets I keep from my friends, it's best if they kept in the dark

So will I fall deep? It depends if Hell awaits

I pray my shell don't break, the only armor I have is that Book of Life that helps me negate all the sins from my past

I cry whenever I laugh, I smile whenever love dies

See some guys like me can relate when you hear those doves cry

I've made and made mistakes twice, I'm opposite like Day, Night

I imagine every woman naked, some may call it stage fright

Fighting for My soul every day like I'm in a cage fight

While I'm following Jesus to Heaven till I see those break lights

I'll finally get to say I made it there

Sometimes I feel Hell is Earth, please Lord take me, I hate it here

All in all you gave me what I need to become a Man

I'm thankful for it, life is pain on the other hand

I know a good time's coming, yeah

I know a good time's coming, yeah

I know a good time's coming, yeah

I know a good time's coming

Yo, you went Country on the ass Nigga
