about

Heavens a pair of dice that we shake up/
Scared to stare in the eyes of the snake must/
Throw down bucks to see where it takes us/
We gamble with faith in hopes to meet our maker/

lyrics

Produced by Deca

"C'mon believe in Jesus, what do you have to lose?
It's like the lotto, you can't get saved if you don't play"

(cuts)
Do you believe in God? You do, tell him to save you.

(Vrs1)
In search of forever we play religious roulette/
All bets are on the table on who will get us thru this/
Holding faith as fact is what leaves most fucked/
It's all a game of chance, but we won't budge/
Push our personal crusade, judge who's saved/
Crucify those who speak of a new age/
No one know's one answer but prophets (profits) never stop/
It's big business taking 10 percent, watch these heads on top/
Do what they've done since jump deny fruits of truth/
Nothing lost in translation, lies proved-review/
7th day he rested, let's replay this message/
Gave his only begotten son, to make an "exit"/
A loop hole if you will to keep his status infallible/
Frequent forgiveness justifies madness of half these fools/
Our fathers hail mary, original sin?/
Hope our so called Revelations, show when it all ends/

Chorus
Heavens a pair of dice (paradise) that we shake up/
Scared to stare in the eyes of the snake must/
Throw down bucks to see where it takes us/
We gamble with faith in hopes to meet our maker/
(x2)

(cuts)
On earth as it is in heaven

(bridge)
Our father in heaven, hollows thy name/
For your glory, non-believers wallow in pain/ (x4)

It's awful Imma make 'em, take in all what's wrong/
Murder in the name of God, most high, Allah/ (x2)

(Chorus)

(cuts)
On earth as it is in heaven

(Vrs 2)
The war on terror translates to jihad/
Arguments on each side, "We do it for The God"/
Written on paper, for you to "put your trust in him"/
It's disgusting when innocents die, soldiers rushing in/
Guns blazing, wild western ways, women weep/
It's even in the Torah, we ignore the fact it's in those sheets/
Sheeps-lambs of God, slaughtered in his name/
Anti-crisis devices keep you from going insane/
Far from a new world order it's been in practice/
Active back when, to defend their actions/
Before packing double barrel apparel attacking/
With the sword of G-O-D this Neo-breeds tactics/
See no peace, their evil deeds are replicas of yester-year/
We continuously question who's next to fear/
Make a major wager on a savior place your bets on why it is that he said later and left us here/

"let me ask you this question, what if we right and you wrong? We, we gonna make it and you aint."

"If you're doing, if you're being good to just save your ass, just because 'Ohhh, they might be right and I just wanna double down here and make sure that when I get up to the pearly gates, that St Peter doesn't say to me, Oh sorry asshole you had the wrong religion enjoy hell, bye bye, that's not a good reason, and you know that"
