Lie now, pay later

Lie Now, Pay Later

You pay for what you get
You get for what you do
All part of karmic net
All ripples on one pool

If you do what would be don’t
If you don’t that which you should
Your will will turn to won’t
Your won’t will wreck your would

Your bill might be delayed
Your fate may look okay
Eventually dismayed
Your soul will have to pay

Look deep in looking glass
Turn in and weigh your heart
Your ass will be bit by past
Your spirit lose its spark

What goes does come back round
Your lies will one day surface
And you won’t feel so proud
Exposed before your purpose

Your greed just leads to dark
Your fear weaves more worry
Keeping yourself apart
Will only lead to sorry

We’re all one giant web
Connected by each move
None of the lies you’ve said
Will single sin remove

Act now or pay more later
Be good before you’re gone
Karma’s an alligator
Which feeds on what you spawn
