"Adam was but human--this explains it all. He did not want the apple for
the apple's sake, he wanted it only because it was forbidden." -Mark Twain
Isn't it true? Do we not want the most forbidden of fruits
What if the serpent was shown and it was a mirror image of you?
Are you appaled or surprised that you've been caught in a lie?
Knowing the truth, would you go to your roots, go back to the garden & die?
Forever we'll live with regret, our souls should be ripped from our flesh
Can you imagine a world with no sickness or death, no wickedness left
Instead of getting the heavens to fold multiply the pleasures we know
I wonder, still -- What could've been better than the breath that we hold?
Instead, we sleep with our scars, in return, our dreams are bizarre
The most contradicting of thoughts, isn't it human to reach for the stars?
Shouldn't we have an ocean of hope? Shouldn't the motive be growth?
Are we expected to sink? Is it too much to be hoping for both?
Did you get caught in the tussle, was it too hard of a struggle?
Would you be relieved if you were told this was all part of the puzzle
The decision He made, it's like the heavens exploded
He made us from clay, but He knew that it was meant to be molded
Believe in the power of G-d, He knew we would've ate from the tree
He just wanted his garden to flourish, and we did -- Thanks for the seed
