The monuments of ancient times
A copy of home
Where once we knew all
And the universe we did roam
Revelation 21:16 ICB
The city was built in a square. Its length was equal to its width. The angel measured the city with the rod. The city was 1,500 miles long, 1,500 miles wide, and 1,500 miles high.
There at the beginning
When creation was made
Were the ones that had shouted
later then became afraid
Job 38:7 KJV
When the morning stars sang together and all the sons of God shouted for joy?
Caught in our own web
And longing for more
We left that habitation
For those we adored
Genesis 6:2
That the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were fair; and they took them wives of which they chose.
Trading with knowledge
A deception was made
Always closer to dominance
And closer to pain
Wickedness within us
Our hearts did decline
To carry out the mission
Of protecting mankind
Usurping authority
With something you could see
It was good to the eyes
Nearby on a tree
Genesis 3:1
Now the serpent was more subtle than any beast of the field which the Lord God had made. And he said unto the woman, Yea, hath God said, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden?
Then came the plan
To corrupt in the mind
No more to be perfect
now a mixed kind
Genesis 6:4
There were giants in the earth in those days; and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bare children to them, the same became might men which were of old, menu of renown.
The ultimate battle
We thought we had won
Finally getting rid of
God’s only son
John 19:30 KJV
When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, It is finished: and he bowed his head, and gave up the ghost.
But on the 3rd day
He rose from the grave
and did herald the decree
from which there’s no escape
Mark 16:6 KJV
And he saith unto them, be not affrighted: Ye seek Jesus of Nazareth, which was crucified: he is risen; he is not here: behold the place where they laid him.
Still we trudge on
With one final goal
To deceive and infect
All the ones who now know
John 10:10 KJV
The thief comes not but for to kill, steal, and to destroy...
Our fate is sealed
But we rant and we rave
to deceive mankind
for the rest of our days
Peter 3:19-20
By which also he went and preached unto the spirits in prison; Which sometime were disobedient, when once the longsuffering of God waited in the days of Noah, while the ark was a preparing, wherein few, that is eight souls were saved by water.
The Inspiration
