Earthquake - Maze of the Madness lyrics

[Verse 1: The Tonic] Danger, danger Got me stepping like a Power Ranger Calling on the power of the One from the manger In anger, but not in sin I begin to make my way through all of this mess I'm in It's hard to see so many born faster Got hate oozing out 'em like sulfuric acid Everyday a new thief, today's might want my teeth To string them all together and make 'em into a wreath Brother's ill, won't think twice to shake his boom pipe Even if I run the j**els, he'll still want my life Puppy's sick, so I gotta shoot the gospel quick And hope the truth will hit him much harder than a mule kick I let him know that if he lets the hollow points spray God's got a vengeance that'll make a flambe But let me shut up before I provoke the "cack, cack!" Wish I could do a kick, and put him on his back Not to make him handicapped but so that I could get away And have another chance to pray that this brother would get out of the madness [Hook] What do you do when life's a must? But you already caught the rush? Money, power, lust In whom will you place your trust? All sin, no question, no doubt Stuck and you can't get out Christ knows how you feel So get 'em up in the air if you know He's real! [Verse 2: The Tonic] Caution, caution Has got me turnin', tossin', pausin' Six million moves, Steve Austin Check the picture Here comes that mad, fly, dime sister Guess she's sittin', waitin' for her loving money mister Wonder if she's got time to hear the plan As I approach her, I see her lips say "Here comes this corny preacher man" I try to strike one up, I say, "That skirt is fly, is it pleated?" She said, "Come on, man, beat it!" I said "Why is that the greeting that I'm given?" She said "Step!", I said "God bless your soul, keep livin'" And as I walk away, I wish there was something I could say To really make her understand that she's more than a Chick-fil-A Piece of meat to be bought or sandwich to be made 'Cause a little mayonnaise won't change how your played 'Cause the next man bites And the next man bites And when it's all over, it's a terrible sight 'Cause when they are done pulling up everything, man, it's spooky You got substance, but float around the bowl (Let me shut up) And God's got a flush for all the manure That's why I'm trying to tell her to keep her out of the sewer of the madness [Hook] [Verse 3: The Tonic] Power, power's got me lasting for another hour Trying to stay alert, awake to the devourer Though his fate must drag on, the dragon Satan Been hawking to destroy me ever since I was a little man And even though I know I'm sealed for the long ride He tempts me to feel the pleasure of the dark side It gets raw hide in obeying God's will The power is in steady spittin', it's written in his lying grill And if he wasn't enough to shake, roll, and rattle The world is another enemy of constant battle They invite me in, only to disown me Build me up to break me down 'til I'm lonely Lastly, I war with myself the most Today, will I play dictator or will I play host? Will I do what I hate or hate what I do or don't do what I should or deny what I know is true? This is the ceaseless, keeping it real, kind of war Not only am I a conqueror but I'm more So tell my three enemies God's got the back of his buddy So I'm going to my grave with my knucks bloody Not in the physical, but in a spiritual kind of badness 'Cause I gotta fight the madness [Hook]
