Then and Now - Cro-mags

God has taken me for a life of crime

Misery and suffering and losing my mind

Trying to succeed but I was so very blind

There’s no material pleasure that can satisfy time

Serving my sensed with no hesitation

Never even thinking of my situation

Been smashed so many times and it made it so clear

That I was only living in illusion and fear

It’s time to advance towards a spiritual state

Instead of serving your senses falling victim to fate

The strength is there inside you, it’s never too late

So don’t be lead astray by illusion and hate

I’m telling you, you gotta believe in him

Nothing else can save you, open up your eyes, see the light

Hear the truth, nothing else could set you free

Be brave, be strong, you can’t go wrong

Be brave, be strong, you can go on
