The Great Deception Lyrics by Flame

The great deception…ception… ception…ception… ception…ception…ception…ception…ception……

See the king and the queen, they were under bosses

Ruling everything, their dominion was exhausted

(Now let every creeping thing) except for God himself

And each other, but they represented God himself

In his image of perfection, joy, bliss, it was paradise

But I can hear the ploy, the hiss (no more being nice)

Of the serpent who slithers in the grass

And calls into question, the giver of the task (are you sure)

I know they brew over me (I’m the beast of the field)

But how can I persuade them (gotta get us out their minds)

Make’em think that they are animals (make’em think they are the king)

Then I can degrade them (then I got’em, I got’em)

This is my plot, but I’ll have to use their appetites to twit them in a knot

(Tell’em they can be like God) Then maybe I can win

If I could use Adam’s appetite to make him sin

(Chorus)

I never saw me stumbling, I never thought I’d fall

The day that You created me, I know You gave Your all

You put so much of You in me

I almost lost it all

The great deception…ception…ception…ception

Look at the queen of the universe, walking in the garden

The image bearing empress, conversing with the fallen

(Serpent who was crawling) the evil spirit of Eden

Who tried to redefine the definition of freedom

Ju…ju…ju…ju…ju…ju…just eat the fruit from the tree

You are a goddess, you are deity

You are much more than God has revealed

Go ahead Eve exercise your reveal

Distinguish for yourself, good and evil

But who am I, I’m just a beast of the field

No the fruit is not lethal, just eat see how it makes you feel

And how it makes you think, and how it makes you act

Fact! Your God has been holding back

Scratch that, He is flat out lie

If you eat from the tree you will not surely die

(Chorus)

I never saw me stumbling, I never thought I’d fall

The day that You created me, I knew You gave Your all

You put so much of You in me

I almost lost it all

The great deception (ception, ception, ception)

From the dawn of history, the mystery of lawlessness

Hijack the cosmic order, interrupted flawlessness

Introduce fallenness and now the servant-king

Who used to rule the land forfeited everything

And now the image bearers, Adam and Eve

Gave up their authority and were forced to leave

The sanctuary of Eden, The world was the kingdom

But Adam brought the curse

Because of his disobedience

Now demonic powers, rule the universe

Satan is the leader, and death is the curse

The Father sent Jesus, to come press reverse

But he had to hit the wilderness first

To overcome temptation, overcome sin

These are the things that are common to man

And that’s exactly what he did, after the resurrection

The safest place to be is in Him for protection

For perfection

For correction

To escape the great deception

Overcome temptation

Overcome sin

Overcome temptation

Overcome sin (over-overcome sin)

After the resurrection

The safest place to be is in Him for protection (for protection)

For perfection (for perfection)

For correction (for correction)

To escape the great deception…ception… ception…ception… ception…ception…ception…ception…ception……
