Testament

Walking through the garden
 Through the garden of temptation
 Tempestuous in youth
 Seek the testament of truth
 An angst that bears no sobs or self-pitied cries
 He cherishes his one daily job with pride
 The job to stay alive
 Quest for reasons in empty hearts
 Death the adventure when life's the bore
 But in the face of defeat a lion roars
 Statutes stand like statues
 Laws stagnant in value
 For the rulers of the ruled
 The fools and the fooled
 But should your carcass rot in a gutter
 While your ideals go to heaven
 When rebellion's the cause
 Like a spartacus it's yours today
 And tomorrow this testament will fall
 Dying to be written
 A new testament to be born
 The lion roars, the lion roars
 The lion roars as never before
 in testament
