Generations

I can taste the fruit of Eve

I'm aware of sickness, death, and disease

The results of her choices are vast

Eve was the first, but she wasn't the last

And if I were honest with myself

Had I been standing at that tree

My mouth and my hands would be covered with fruit

Things I shouldn't know and things I shouldn't see

Remind me of this with every decision

Generations will reap what I sow

I can pass on a curse or a blessing

To those I will never know

She taught me to fear the serpent

I'm learning the fear myself

And all of the things I am capable of

In my search for wisdom, acceptance, and wealth

And to say that the devil made me do it

Is a cop out and a lie

The devil can't make me do anything

When I'm callin' on Jesus Christ

Remind me of this with every decision

Generations will reap what I sow (Reap what I sow)

I can pass on a curse or a blessing

To those I will never know (Ohh)

To my great-great-great-granddaughter

Live in peace

To my great-great-great-grandson

Live in peace

To my great-great-great-granddaughter

Live in peace

To my great-great-great-grandson

Live in peace

Oh, live in peace

(Ahh)

Remind me of this with every decision

Generations will reap what I sow (Reap what I sow)

I can pass on a curse or a blessing

To those I will never know

Oh, remind me

Generations (Generations) will reap what I sow (Reap what I sow)

I can pass on a curse or a blessing

To those I will never know

Oh, I may never know

Eve was the first, but she wasn't the last
