New Era

Some claiming it's a shame
To be spiritually sane
"Gonna miss out on the gains"
That thinking ain't straight

"Gotta party til you're broke
With the bottles and the smoke"

It's now a problem if you don't
Breaking hearts is just a joke

"You don't need to be a saint
Wriggle free and get a taste
Life is sweeter than a cake"

If you're switching up lanes

Within a second you'll begin to notice
Not all that glitters is really golden

You're already where the grass is greener
A chance to lead a
Life with a conscience cleaned up

With the absence of suffering harm
You're under the covering arm
Of the One who gives you comfort and calm

You've got the hope of a paradise
Forever-life
In the future when this era dies

The joyrides of this era's a waste
The future era awaits, it could be here in a day
