Karma

[Segue: Jamie Madrox]
-eternity for each and every one of us. Will you ascend to see the face of St. Peter, as he smiles and greets you with a warm welcome, or will you decline where the likes of him would have you spending eternity begging for mercy? The choice is yours. Do you care? You should...they do...

[Verse 1: Jamie Madrox]
No relation or second comin' of dark spawn
We're preparin' a path for the children of Babylon
In search of Zion or a chemical release
At least it gives us inner peace for a second so we can sleep
Riddled by daydreams and puzzled by life
All of us are runnin' through darkness in search of the light
As the demons disappear like phantoms in mirrors
And reappear, transformed in the form of your fears
I got a feelin' that you think it's all phony and far-fetched
'Til you're devoid of all hope and virtually helpless
It's necessary to never let it get worse than it's gotten
It'll go on forever, even after you're rotten
And depending on the karma of spirit, dwellin' in inner being
Will determine eternity unless you intervene
With your man-made destiny and the myth that it withholds
You will never find the light as long as your eyes are closed

[Chorus: Jamie Madrox & Monoxide]
Are you going to hell or heaven?
Did you walk with the sinners or pray with the reverend?
Tell the truth, I did a little of both
But ain't no tellin' where I'm goin' 'til my body's a ghost, and we sing
The whole world's gonna hate me in the end
When they're surrounded by nothin' but the fire (Nothin' but the fire)
You can lie, but you're soakin' in sin
When you die, let your karma begin (From the beginning to the end)

[Verse 2: Monoxide]
You can see all around you right
So don't act like you don't recognize the light
And in spite of all the things that you did and I forgive
You will end up sittin' where the devil lives
I told you all in the beginning I would have the last laugh
And your karma is the reason that you burn like gas
And in the past, I've been known to be a little too passive
But like I just said, I'll be the last one laughin'
Hopefully, this will all make sense
When you're lookin' at the fiery fence and I commence
To keep walkin' through time with a list of these names
That I can guarantee that Karma's gonna burn in these flames
So speak my name and hate me for what I'm sayin'
But trust me, I ain't playin', I think you should start prayin'
Hopin' it starts paying off, the poison that you're sprayin' often
Enough to really tick me off, and I bust

[Chorus: Jamie Madrox & Monoxide]
Are you going to hell or heaven
Did you walk with the sinners or pray with the reverend
Tell the truth, I did a little of both
And ain't no telling where I'm going till my body's a ghost
And we sing
The whole world's gonna hate me in the end
When they're surrounded by nothing but the fire (nothing but the fire)
You can lie but you're soaking in sin
When you die let your karma begin (from the beginning to the end)

[Verse 3: Monoxide]
Now you can do whatever you want to me
But in the end, you're gonna burn like weed
It may seem like he's workin' for me, but I swear there's no ties
Just a collaboration of your bullshit and lies
And your demise will come when I rise like the sun
And bring the drama with the motherfucking *explosion*
I'm the chosen one, so all your guns are obsolete
You better bring the devil when you think of fuckin' with me

[Verse 4: Jamie Madrox]
At the point where you cease and exist to be
And clutch your fist in the state of the sight of your own grim reality
It ain't nobody's fault but your own
You had a choice in life, now it's gone and it's time to move along
You can float to the heavens where the angels fly away
Or descend in the gallows where atheists learn to pray
Ain't no place you wanna stay, so you better choose wisely
Unless you wanna gamble with whatever might be

[Chorus: Jamie Madrox, Monoxide]
Are you going to hell or heaven
Did you walk with the sinners or pray with the reverend
Tell the truth, I did a little of both
And ain't no telling where I'm going till my body's a ghost
And we sing
The whole world's gonna hate me in the end
When they're surrounded by nothing but the fire (nothing but the fire)
You can lie but you're soaking in sin
When you die let your karma begin (from the beginning to the end)
