Cover art for Fields of Mars lyrics by Bad Religion

The first verse seems to be talking about Adam. Who, according to the Bible, was the first man on Earth. It says he was banished with his loot, as God threw him out of the Garden of Eden after eating the fruit from the Forbidden Tree. God put up a gate to lock him out of the Garden of Eden, and locked it with a flaming omnidirectional sword.
