Lyrics Dot Rotten – Gates Of Heaven
Text:
Making money, chasing evil for the Devil’s payment
God forsaken, by temptation it’s the path we’re taking
Making money, chasing evil for the Devil’s payment
God forsaken, by temptation it’s the path we’re taking
We ride until the end, but still we don’t know where we’re going
Love inside our hearts, but when there’s war we never show it
When there’s money involved you’ve got to hold your ground
Too many will die for the dollar and the pound
If money’s the root of all evil, why are we chasing it?
Cause we want the cars and the clothes and the jewellery and the hoes when we’re thinking of making it
And it feels like an illusion
I’ve made some money in my life, and it never brought me happiness
It just brought me confusion
For the love of the money, the people will kill
It all depends on the path that you’re choosing
Making money, chasing evil for the Devil’s payment
God forsaken, by temptation is the path we’re taking
Will our sins be forgiven?
Will our sins be forgiven?
Will we sin against Heavens?
Will we walk past the gates of Heaven?
The gates of Heaven
x3
What you know about the bad life?
Woman with a crack pipe
Two kids in a single flat just trying to get her cash right
Father’s in the H.M.P, but he says he’s innocent
Too many witnesses and civilians saw him killing ’em
Youngen’ on the block, hearing his brother’s been murdered
Holding the burner, looking for the addresses like a burglar
He’s outside of the house, kick off the door cause it’s a stick up
And then he gets arrested, and his girl’s pregnant
It’s the same cycle, and there ain’t no way to mend it
Met up with his enemy in the jail, full of vengeance
He had his boys waiting at the entrance
Fight to the death as the Govs watch
Blood on a man’s hands never rubs off
And that’s just another love lost
With all these Sins, how do we expect to touch God?
Making money, chasing evil for the Devil’s payment
God forsaken, by temptation is the path we’re taking
Will our sins be forgiven?
Will our sins be forgiven?
Will we sin against Heavens?
Will we walk past the gates of Heaven?
The gates of Heaven
x3
