A FOOL'S PARADISE




 

Life is but a fool's paradise
Every soul borrowed only for a while
A billionaire with a mansion on the cloud
A pop star worshiped by the crowd

What are the fates of men who once rule the world?
They dig up treasures and fortunes
Lust in wealth and recognition 

A mere tips of God's love 

No man can ever build is glory above God's plan
Don't you try comprehend or justify the reason
You deem it fit to wear a crown of selfishness and pride
Blame God's judgment for a falling man

We have unconsciously build a wall in our lives
Cage our blessings within a shallow minded heart
Have you ever tried to measure the length of the sky?
God purpose for man is gambled away

It's high time we put aside our differences
Get down on our knees to pray
Heaven wears a man a crown of righteousness
Some day repay him with eternal reign

It doesn't matter if you sell books or stones
The world gradually is heading to destruction
Are you really going to sit and watch her burn?
For life is but a fool's paradise
