merc versus - entering heaven alive lyrics
[intro]
[verse 1]
eighty-fivers ask the question “why believe in yesterday?”
with devil-may-care att-tudes and their rude irreverent ways
they never pay homage, the ignorance takes my breath away
architects will lay the foundation and rest the seventh day
as records play; these recording artists and labels
are heartless and fatal men like cain and martyrs like abel
elijah did cross the river jordan, army of faithful
protected by the almighty lord and guardian angels
from oasis of the arabs rocking gold egyptian scarabs
to european renaissance of holy christian cherubs
we’re striving for perfection with no ornaments of arrogance
and elevate to summon fiery chariots to carry us
without the past experience tomorrow is a mystery
you can’t forget the origins and borrow from the history
without an honor code for respecting the founding fathers
we doubt the authorship to the script when we’re counting dollars
(why believe in yesterday?) that’s what they say
(why believe in yesterday?) that’s what they say
[hook]
when lessons of the great legends survive
they are the key to entering the gates of heaven alive
love, peace, and happiness; you’re like a ghost in a sh-ll
heaven’s what you make it, otherwise you’re going through h-ll
[verse 2]
some of us need religion, others need a stable married life
to lift us up like angel wings that carried christ to paradise
to reach a higher level you don’t have to sell your soul
gain determination, better focus, and some self control
it’s your only chance to escape from this purgatory
the adversary satan is hatin’ these words of glory
too many false prophets are screaming out “hallelujah!”
and speaking in tongues but ain’t thinking about the future
without the past experience tomorrow is a mystery
you can’t forget the origins and borrow from the history
without an honor code for respecting the founding fathers
we doubt the authorship to the script when we’re counting dollars
(why believe in yesterday?) that’s what they say
(why believe in yesterday?) that’s what they say
[hook]
when lessons of the great legends survive
they are the key to entering the gates of heaven alive
love, peace, and happiness; you’re like a ghost in a sh-ll
heaven’s what you make it, otherwise you’re going through h-ll
[verse 3]
and you can tell bloodsucking parasites are murdering the culture
as they continue sacrificing virgins on the altar
we’ve given up our crowns and let wickedness rule the kingdom
and given up our power of infinite truth and freedom
wind currents change, develop hurricanes, and when the levies break
we hope disaster victims levitate right up to heaven’s gate
and meet with metatron; we reconnect the severed bonds
they’re contemplating how to build a better bomb in lebanon
without the past experience tomorrow is a mystery
you can’t forget the origins and borrow from the history
without an honor code for respecting the founding fathers
we doubt the authorship to the script when we’re counting dollars
(why believe in yesterday?) that’s what they say
(why believe in yesterday?) that’s what they say
[hook]
when lessons of the great legends survive
they are the key to entering the gates of heaven alive
love, peace, and happiness; you’re like a ghost in a sh-ll
heaven’s what you make it, otherwise you’re going through h-ll
[repeat hook]
