In the whole world it's only two kinda people
The first is good and the other is evil
They say good to to heaven and the bad go to hell
But who drew the line and how can you tell?
Where the good ends and the bad begins
Is it like sunset when the sun descends
And the moon rises as the sky darkens
It's hearkens my heart I hear it callin'
Shh
Review the 7 deadly sins
I recalled a couple times I committed all of them
Well not murdered but I k**ed a friendship
Adultery with his woman so we never spoke again
Growing up I felt so filthy
Kept alotta secrets, felt so guilty
Sit in the church pews to ask for forgiveness
With a high probability to repeat offenses
So many I've lost count
Embarra**ing don't call me out
When the saints go marching in
Will I take a detour route
Sometimes I don't know if
If I meet requirements
A high enough percentage of
Of goodness vs my evilness
On a scale from 1-10 tell me where you fall between
If you say a perfect 5 that I do not believe
Everyone's at least a little more than the other
Some people boldly, some undercover
People in all different walks of life
Struggle with wrong vs right
But my question that seems to linger
Can any of us point the finger?
Are any of us better than the other
Or do we all have a that hidden something?
You don't want anyone to know your like
So you shield it from the light
In hopes that we don't suspect
That you too are not perfect
I can't keep livin' in the darkness
My dad said 'word to the wise
Nothing good ever happens in the nighttime'
Would you tell that to a owl or a bat flying
As the moon shines
Habitat denied?
But he has a good point cuz the freaks come out
And stay out past the witching hour
To devour your sobriety
To influence you highly
Women of the night be pining
You can tell I'm stuck in this darkness too
My lips getting blacker and and my lungs are too
Flirtatious by nature a typical dude
Too many other women that's callin' me boo
A product of the people that I call my crew
My experiences and how I grew
I was raised in church as a goodie 2 shoes
So maybe my darkness been tryna break loose
Even when I behave myself, I can't tame myself
Is this Beast inside released by the devil, himself or with no help?
Was I born with desires that I'm meant to control
Or do I follow and go with the flow?
Sometimes I just don't know
If we all were honest with the problems we faced then it all would be commonplace
But instead we crucify anybody that we catch making mistakes
But who really decided
Perfection and quantified it?
Like a rule book or the good book?
If we all fall short
Then maybe it's time for a second look
