Punishment Lyrics
I question not me, it only happens to others
I can't deny reality as life gets smothered
If the lines can be read between
Maybe you can tell me then what it all means
Cause he who paints the big picture runs the whole scene
Locked down, I gotta get it out
Impending doom, a cloud above my head
Why me ? My faith has been devout
Blasphemous ? Am I better off dead ?
Punishment, for all my sins
A burning thought inside my mind
Has me full of pity for all of human kind
As we move forth, we fall further behind
Fear of death, will my life go on ?
Controlled fate ? On the corner rolling dice
Punishment, but I've done nothing wrong
In my eyes, who really pays the price
My lament, for the human race
Guilty, punishment for all my sins
Dread the day that brings the truth
Punishment for what I've done
Sentence me for all my sins
Bound in fear for what I've got
Though not much it seems a lot
Life is death and no one wins
Bustin' my ass, another day another dollar, as I kneel down and I
confess to the father that I'm suffering a burning question of
the truth, whether or not to pull the trigger or to jump right
off the roof, 'cause I did things normal and just like all my friends
but now I'm positive and life it all ends
Punishment, for all my sins, I repent
In reality, we all must face the fact that the majority
of the people are out there smoking crack, getting doped up,
shooting that shit into their veins, the question must be asked if
we have any brains left, or right or wrong in this song,
a question we all ask and must answer before long, 'cause no one
is safe in this world, what's the deal, the sentence is death and to
what court do I appeal ?
Punishment, for all my sins, I repent
Punishment
I can't deny reality as life gets smothered
Maybe you can tell me then what it all means
Cause he who paints the big picture runs the whole scene
Impending doom, a cloud above my head
Why me ? My faith has been devout
Blasphemous ? Am I better off dead ?
Has me full of pity for all of human kind
As we move forth, we fall further behind
Controlled fate ? On the corner rolling dice
Punishment, but I've done nothing wrong
In my eyes, who really pays the price
Guilty, punishment for all my sins
Punishment for what I've done
Sentence me for all my sins
Bound in fear for what I've got
Though not much it seems a lot
Life is death and no one wins
confess to the father that I'm suffering a burning question of
the truth, whether or not to pull the trigger or to jump right
off the roof, 'cause I did things normal and just like all my friends
but now I'm positive and life it all ends
Punishment, for all my sins, I repent
of the people are out there smoking crack, getting doped up,
shooting that shit into their veins, the question must be asked if
we have any brains left, or right or wrong in this song,
a question we all ask and must answer before long, 'cause no one
is safe in this world, what's the deal, the sentence is death and to
what court do I appeal ?

Pety: god forgives all eh? who forgives god then? The song is CLEARLY that it does not matter what you do you are going to DIE! And that no matter how good you are, you are going to DIE and you have no higher court to appeal it "my sentence is DEATH and to what court do i appeal" The ruling is FINAL, life is death and know one wins!. Bustin my arse another day another dollar
YO DOG YOU KIDZ IZ NUTZ THIZ ZONG REPRESENTZ HOW I FEELS IN MAH HIZEART!

Let's be honest, life is a deadly sexual transmitted disease.

@pety God makes it as plain as day how to be forgiven. He offers forgiveness to everybody but most certainly does not forgive everyone - especially those without faith in Him.

the idea I get is that life is punishment for your sins kind of a karma-inspired view of things
