Eve
Eve, the world blames she
She repented, the devil left
But then came seven more
Her seed became a scorpion
Her earnings became stone
Her aquarium, full of snakes
And now her children sting
And you can’t eat mountains
And serpents lie
Eve, the world blames she
She opened her third eye
But it blossomed into two
She longs to be a candle
To rid of all the stripes
But her reputation keeps creating
Mixed women who fear trees
Who has the power to cast you into hell?
Eve, the world blames you
Your joy lies in heaven
You’re not of this earth anymore
