lyrics

(Verse 1)
When God made the lakes and the rivers
The Earth the sky, stars, the snakes, and the lizards
He made us a promise on one day he would give us
Forgiveness and separate the saints from the sinners
But for now the current condition is lifeless
With thieves and creeps who live amongst the righteous
Broke conditions we cope just to live with
As all over the globe it grows like a sickness
Most addictive the moment it infects
It spreads like a simultaneous butterfly effect
Through ex-Senators accused as sex predators
But instead arrest residents with less evidence
Culpable men retire in the shade
While other innocent men get confined to a cage
Left without another choice or an option
But to find God or die inside the box they get locked in

(Chorus)
Cause life’s a game that ain’t worth gamblin’
Trust in God so one day you can stand with him
So for now when he’s calling you better answer him
Faithless, scared, and unaware, I’m The Antonym
Shedding light for what the future might bring
Although I know that its harder to do the right thing
So fear God and give praise to the source
Cause free will is your choice to put faith in the Lord

(Verse 2)
Now I agree that every person’s entitled
To their own belief system when concerning survival
Some have never headed the Quran or words in the Bible
Waltzing around with false faith worshiping idols
Proud felons with cowardice foul tendencies
Crossed dark streets and befriended devout enemies
Ego instigation to gang initiation
Retaliation was taken, identity mistaken
Around 10 found dead by his Mother
While her other Son’s about to get revenge for his Brother
You can smell it the breeze reeks with suspension
You can feel it the streets fiend for redemption
Rest In Peace candles lit on the curb
Another victim of violence in which he didn’t deserve
Lives taken to follow a dumb trend
Respect is none cause there’s no honor amongst men

(Chorus)
Cause life’s a game that ain’t worth gamblin’
Trust in God so one day you can stand with him
So for now when he’s calling you better answer him
Faithless, scared, and unaware, I’m The Antonym
Shedding light for what the future might bring
Although I know that its harder to do the right thing
So fear God and give praise to the source
Cause free will is your choice to put faith in the Lord

(Verse 3)
Whether its real or if its claimed as a fallacy
Everything you see on TV is based on reality
Even when you hear me spittin’ these writtens in the booth
No matter who’s rappin’ there’s always a little bit of truth
So let the verse spread when the topic is too intense
All these words said have been inspired by true events
So don’t be sidetracked by these sudden attractions
Cause the last thing that we need is another distraction
Like Heroine which is part of grander plan
Of U.S. soldiers guarding poppy plants in Afghanistan
Dope in a seed controlled by the beast
Grown overseas, imported, and sold through our streets
Its all backwards the copper is the killer
An inside job now the doctor is the dealer
Straight up sinners working Godless for a check
Fillin’ their pockets and making a profit off of death


(Chorus)
Cause life’s a game that ain’t worth gamblin’
Trust in God so one day you can stand with him
So for now when he’s calling you better answer him
Faithless, scared, and unaware, I’m The Antonym
Shedding light for what the future might bring
Although I know that its harder to do the right thing
So fear God and give praise to the source
Cause free will is your choice to put faith in the Lord
