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
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

Life is sweeter than a cake"

Not all that glitters is really golden

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
