[Verse 1]
Let there be light, as the day divides from the night
Which led to a firmament
Made to split the watery current
And laid above it
To behold the name Heaven
But it still seemed the planet was only Ocean
So dry land rose bringing shape to make the planet whole
Waters merged and diverged to the seas
Birthing plant life that could yield seeds
Fruits, flowers, and trees sprouted from the soil with grass glittering green
The sun housed the sky while stars littered night
Life in the waters emerged with great sea creatures
Land had cattle, creeping things and beast of the Earth
But even with everything being done it still felt incomplete
So he made Adam in his image with Adam's rib God made Eve
After all was said and done it was time to rest
But it didn't take long for Michael to scheme his best
It was apparent in the way he spoke
It seemed he wanted to turn man to ghosts
For example the man Job
Tested his faith until he was all alone
But he was blessed in the end cuz only Lord Knows
Now Michael asked from God where he's been and replied "to and fro"
And in a blink a third of the Angels fell
Right along with Michael, they all went to hell
[Chorus]
The life that flashes before your eyes
Only appears when you're about to die
And if the light don't seem too bright
You can see it this one last time
[Verse 2]
Continuing on with Adam and Eve
From any tree he can eat
All but one, the tree of knowledge of good and evil
As Adam is roaming Eden
Recalling the animals he's seen
Eve was approached by the serpent
Strangely enough he was fervent
Telling her to eat from the tree of knowledge of good and evil
Because death wouldn't follow
She took a bite then swallowed
She went to Adam with the fruit
So he could know what she knew
The serpent's intention was simply wicked
Eve gave Adam the fruit, so he went and bit it
Adam and Eve realized that they were both naked
They ran to get leaves to cover up their privates
God came back, so the both of them hid
God found them and they were questioned
They hid themselves because they were naked
God asked who told them this
Adam said it was Eve, but she blamed the serpent
God found the reptile, he went and cursed it
Crawling on its belly for all eternity
God looked at Eve, knowing her punishment
Eve's children's births would bring torment
Adam and Eve were both banished
With tunics of skin, soon after Eve bore two children
[Chorus]
The life that flashes before your eyes
Only appears when you're about to die
And if the light don't seem too bright
You can see it this one last time
[Verse 3]
John and Jesus, parents of both children had worry in their thoughts
But were eased by the messengers of God
From the start, the moment Jesus was born he knew he'd be gone
John would baptize him when the time came along
But as a young boy, a deeper understanding brought joy
To the one's in his company
Wisdom he had it plentifully
Even when Satan tempted him
He continued his journey
Meeting the 12 disciples, giving love and mercy
But the words he spoke to his disciples
Of his betrayal will make its arrival
As they went to Jerusalem and entered the palace
Caiaphas was plotting against Jesus
Judas had been called by the elder priest
For 30 pieces of silver he traded his loyalty
Now, The Last Supper
Jesus spoke "He who eats bread with me has lifted up his heel against me"
For only he noticed Judas had eaten
The guards arrested Jesus
Caiaphas had him blindfolded, nailed to a cross, mocked and beaten
And Judas hung himself leading his body to fall
When it hit the ground it was covered in blood and all
Then there it was God's son was slain
These prophecies will be brought to one last angel
With the main goal to enlighten the people
Soon he will be lifted from his cradle
And be perceived in a fictitious portrayal
[Chorus]
The life that flashes before your eyes
Only appears when you're about to die
And if the light don't seem too bright
You can see it this one last time
