Temptation

作曲 : Dax/Eric Klem/Kenneth Tyler Kinsley

Temptation's outside, knocking at my door

Knocking at my door, knocking at my door

I won the battle last night, but I'm still at war

Still at war, still at war

I starve my flesh and feed my spirit with faith

Feed my spirit with faith

Then raise hell till it's up at heaven's gates (Gates)

Temptation creeps into an idle mind

Lack of purpose is the place, seeking pleasure resides

And feels safe

And gets its strength

Temptation loves fame, serves ego and pride

Mama told me, "Two wrongs don't make no right"

So I pray

The temptation away

Temptation makes slaves out of lustful eyes

Out of lustful eyes

It'll rob you of your happiness and pay you attention with lies

With lies, attention

In that darkness, you'll find shame's not worth your time

It's not worth your time

Then appraise your sin for the cost of peace of mind

Oh, yeah

Temptation creeps into an idle mind

Lack of purpose is the place, seeking pleasure resides

And feels safe

And gets its strength

Temptation loves fame, serves ego and pride

Mama told me, "Two wrongs don't make no right"

So I pray

The temptation away

Down by the river dale

In the garden where the snake tempted Adam and Eve

They ate the fruit

And from those seeds grew the roots of this family tree

It's why we struggle, it's why we fight

Our mother's nature, father time

The human race, but fall behind

Dying to live, but all living to die

For goodness' sake

We've been atone for sins and given God's grace

Stuck in this Babylonic world we can't escape

Going to war with demons every day

The soul and spirit break, that's why I pray

Temptation's outside, knocking at my door

Temptation's knocking at my door

I won the battle last night, but I'm still at war

I am still at war

I starve my flesh and feed my spirit with faith

I will feed my spirit with faith

And raise hell till it's up at heaven's gates

I raise hell

Down by the river dale

Till it's up at heaven's gates
