[Intro] Okay This what it is now a days right Little noises and whatnot I got one though Ready or not [Chorus] It's all going to (Hell) It's all going to (Hell) Yup, we living in (Hell) Yup, they giving us (Hell) It's all going to (Hell) It's all going to (Hell) Yup, we living in (Hell) Word [Verse 1] Every Sunday dressing up catching gossip at its worst Couldn't see the difference in the Baptist and the Catholic Church Caught up in the rapture of the first chapter and second verse If we all God's children then what's the word of the reverend worth Taught early that faith is blind like justice when you facing time If we all made in God's image then that means his face is mine Wait or it's that blasphemy it's logical it has to be If I don't look like my father then the way I live is bastardly Naturally that's confusion to a young'n trying to follow Christ Taught that if you don't know Jesus then you lead a hollow life Never question the fact that Jesus was Jewish not a Christian Or that Christianity was law according to politicians Who was King James? And why did he think it was so vital to remove chapters and make his own version of the Bible They say Hell is underground and Heaven is in the sky And they say that's where you go when you die but how they know [Chorus] It's all going to (Hell) It's all going to (Hell) Yup, we living in (Hell) Yup, they giving us (Hell) It's all going to (Hell) It's all going to (Hell) Yup, we living in (Hell) [Verse 2] I've been to many churches I've quoted many verses I've dealt with my base self I controlled my many urges I used to study my lessons It was a blessing not a curse I learned that Heaven and Hell exist right here on Earth, word Studied with Rastafarians and learned from the dreads that Hell is called Babylon And that's where them crazy boarheads dwell They got us thinking that Muslims like to make bombs But real Muslims believe in paradise and the resist the Shaitan So it all sound the same to me That's why when they say one is right and the other is wrong it just sound like game to me It's like God skipped past the church and came to me No that ain't vein to me It's just a particular way that I came to see The difference between those who claim to be Religious and those that say they spiritual And recognizing that life is full of miracles You could see my glow in a rhyme The poem divine 'cause it coincide with a grow in the time that those who looking for God knowin' to go inside [Chorus] It's all going to (Hell) It's all going to (Hell) Yup, we living in (Hell) Yup, they giving us (Hell) Yup, we living in (Hell) Yup, they giving us (Hell) Yup, we living in (Hell) Yup [Verse 3] Yo, living in mass confusion Looking for absolution The gas seducing and psychopath produce the last solution Based on his interpretation of what the words were saying Trying to get to God but ended up doing the work of Satin Religion create the vision Make the Muslim hate the Christian Make the Christian hate the Jew Make the rules of faith That you condition to and to you gotta follow And God forbid you go to Hell But if you ever walked through any ghetto then you know it well We in the third eye of the storm [Chorus] It's all going to (Hell) It's all going to (Hell) Yup, we living in (Hell) Yup, they giving us (Hell) It's all going to (Hell) It's all going to (Hell) Yup, we living in (Hell) Yup, they giving us (Hell) [Outro] The Lord is my shepherd I shall not want Just because the lord is my shepherd don't mean I gotta be no sheep You feel me? More blood is spilled over religion than anything in world history We saying the same thing
