Knock knock Who's there? It’s Greed What do you want from me? Money, cars, fame, women… I want you to want more The world is open to you What are you waiting for? Enough is enough What use do I have for a lot of fluff? You should get a mention For that, you should strive Those right by the beach Why settle when you could thrive? I like my cozy place Between me and a beach there can be space Your friends are striving for greatness Don’t you feel left behind? You think you have enough But it’s all in your mind… Life isn’t a race Their paths I don’t need to trace Why stay in a single place? Isn’t there much to see in this space rock? Mountains, rivers, beaches and valleys The wide world will leave you in shock I’ll see the world when the time is right I don’t need to rush to see an amazing sight Your mom is working still Isn’t that sad to see? Isn’t it time you repay her? Why not let her rest in glee? I lighten her load as much as I can There is nothing to be done I try my best She doesn’t want a hollow son Why do you not fall to temptation? What keeps you so strong in your station? I’m guided by the Lord Begone Greed Return to Hell Return my peace, leave with speed

Greed
Knock knock Who's There? It’s Lust What do you want from me? I want you to have *** with your girlfriend, the one that you are cuddling right now Ravage her body And make sure her thou Why would I do so? Respect to her I owe All your friends have done it, Why should you be any different? They laugh behind your back Don’t you see it’s urgent? Why does it matter what my friends have done? Their mistake is theirs alone You are already 17, It's about time you became a real man You're already late You should do it while you can I’m only 17, there is no need to rush The time will be right, with rings, rice, and such It will feel good Why must you wait? You could have her right now Your carnal desires you should sate My desires don’t rule me Patience is key Why do you hesitate? Do you not love her? Do you not find her attractive? Her body is yours to conquer I do love her, So what we have I will not taint I’ll wait until the time is right And for us, I will show restraint Why do you not fall to temptation? What keeps you so strong in your station? I’m guided by the Lord Begone Lust Return to Hell Return my peace, and become dust

Lust
I am the greatest craftsman there is I don’t make precious jewels Neither do I make intricate sculptures from wood or stone I can’t even wrap my head around paintings Nor can I claim to understand the inner workings of a clock I don’t know the basics of baking Needless to say I can’t go near a beautiful dress But there is one thing I know how make A priceless thing at that People wish they could own it Yet it often just slips through their fingers Newborns have it to spare Foggies are scrunching for more Kids spend theirs playing and laughing Adults often wish they had spent theirs more wisely I’m very good at making my thing Too bad I can’t sell it for a living At least I can make it for myself And give it to the people I care about But sometimes… The person I love about can’t give me theirs They say… “I don’t have enough for myself, I don’t have enough for you” And to that I just want to say… “Just make more time, I made time for you I expected the same in return”

The Greatest Craftsman
There is a fence between me and her Trying to cross it will get either hurt Ti’s only a wooden fence though And it still allowed love to grow We can’t see or touch, But my love was an axe enchanted with [Robust] I tried to chop and slash To only see a little scratch So I told my love: “Put on a glove And strike the fence hard and true So I can finally see you” To kiss your lips is my only want Even while going against my aunt To move past that we must wait until we are married if that's not too late But a ton of nothing I heard And with my thoughts, it stirred Did she not love me so? Maybe our love was faux It was the next day But the silence with me stayed I tried and tried and tried again But my strength and love started to wane

Fence and Axe
What day this was A day of happiness and bliss Just thrown into the abyss A warning was a must What a day this could have been You would call and I would answer I would learn you are a good dancer While I would be folding a jean If it was for time… If it wasn’t for 7 long hours away Things wouldn’t be this way But I shouldn't wine At least I saw you on display But when that punch took you down In cold sweat I started to drown And tears I cannot delay But I will be who you knew The person you always loved The way you always liked And let it be known that I've always loved you

Seven Hours Away
My mind is a crystal-clear pond All the dirt has settled at it’s depths Because from lust and sin, I’ve run away And oh so far I’ve tried to stay But you’ve jumped in the pond And stirred it’s waters What was clear is now muddled And lust is back, at full throttle
