Temptation Lyrics

In the beginning when man first took breath

Given dominion over the earth

Forbidden fruit that would lead to death

A wicked plan was given birth

Among the the imagers in the Garden

There lay a serpent calculating

Wisest of beasts, he came for Eden

And on the woman he was waiting

I pray of thee, to eat of the tree

Then you will be as we

The first temptation was to rise in station

Defiance to the Most High

But we fell instead as the first sin lead

Banished from paradise

In the end there will be a reckoning

Give an account for what we've done

Give in or deny the beckoning

Pray that you will be washed in blood

Reaching out to seize our autonomy

We turned intention upside-down

And became animals instead of holy

Inverted King now wears the crown

I pray of thee, to eat of the tree

Then you will be as we

The first temptation was to rise in station

Defiance to the Most High

But we fell instead as the first sin lead

Banished from paradise

The seed shall crush the snake

And the serpent strike it's heel
