Watch: New Singing Lesson Videos Can Make Anyone A Great Singer
In the garden of creation stands a skeletal tree Hanging from its branches afterbirth of Adam & Eve Blossomed in mutation rotted through centuries Tortured minds heinous crimes plague God's family Procreation from decay and sand Transmutation pains this fated land Lifeless earth, all love bereft No life left -- on the tree of life & death Slug like dead existence, our fetid hunger breeds Master of future decay -- sowed his deadly seed Roots of evil ate away our fruits of destiny Thorns of human nature stabbed hearts of the free Procreation from decay and sand Transmutation pains this fated land Lifeless earth, all love bereft No life left -- on the tree of life & death Ogun, Malunga, Kalumba, Kinta, Oloron, Mukuru Original sin In the garden of existence, Hanging from temptation's tree A carnival of mutations Growing from man's fated seed Leza, Marasu, Chiuta Nzumbi, Osawa, Zanahary God's offspring ate the apple creating lust, envy Sucking, puking leeches, a catastrophe of greed Garden of temptation lured by serpent's creed Moral desolation, man eternally diseased Procreation from decay and sand Transmutation pains this fated land Lifeless earth, all love bereft No life left -- on the tree of life & death
