Cross and Black Lyrics


It is so convenient for you just to live your life

Living the life you're living now tells you to survive

The way you feel is not the way, it's not the way you seem

It could be the way you are, could be the way you dream

The old have memories and pain

The young have heartache and strain

This world of ours is going down the drain

Crime on the street poor with nothing to eat

They say: Give us money, we'll never cheat

Help you through the days

Help complete the phase

Help defeat the black and evil ways

I've felt regeneration

I've felt no hesitation

The life I lead has lead to good retaliation

You need to feel direction

You need the right correction

Wanting a good life, room enough for affection

Thinking about today

The cross shows you the way

Grip the trip, you know the black will pay

Expressing serious concern

There's time for you to turn

Live, give, the cross will help you learn

I'm telling you my friend

It's time for you to mend

Time to straighten out before the end

The black forces of sin will never let you in

You're good like you should their patience is wearing thin

What's right and what's wrong, the black forces are strong

You did it, you hid it, you can't hide for long

When you're old you'll look back, you'll know you look the right track

Your neighbors and labors will not fade to black

Down and across, the battle never lost

Cross and black, the black and the cross
