The Promised Land
I once was king, the ruler of all things
Biggest tree in the forest, last man in the ring
Made my home in the wilderness
Where survival was hell
The place where the most savage of creatures would choose to dwell
And here, there was a cavern next to where I resided
And No one for many centuries had been up inside it
The legend said it contained such unspeakable horrors
But if you got through it, then your life would change for the better
A place with the softest soil and the balmiest weather
Totally uninhabited, it'd be yours forever
So on One autumn day I decided I would try it
Stared at the cavern's mouth and then bravely I stepped inside it
I conquered every trap, and vanquished every beast
Leapt over every chasm and after
A couple weeks
I Fought my way through the darkness, and finally I saw a light
Exited to a land that would truly alter my life
Verse 2
Boy meets world, it's nothing like I imagined it
Everything I've wanted
Untarnished and uninhabited
In a few days I was cured of my every sickness
The skies are a hue that Id honestly never witnessed
Built a home, planted crops, literally I'm the man
Took my place as sole controller of all the land
But man it gets lonely, wish that I had my friends
They were on different paths, I'd never see them again
Wanted badly for them to witness this paradise
But for me to go back for them would be surely risking my life
So I thought of a way, plans began to deploy
Decided instead of building I would need to destroy
The cavern that separated us somehow had to open
Let there be light can't shine if my circle is broken
So I made a decision that might've altered my fate
Opened the floodgates and now everybody escaped
Verse 3
The first days in paradise were absolute bliss
Never knew humans were able to prosper like this
With No restrictions everyone was invited
But of course that would eventually come back to bite us
Everyone's can't be trusted I knew somebody would try us
It was someone I knew, who just couldn't keep a promise
Told us that he was loyal, turned out he wasn't honest
That's when I decided, we needed some kinda laws
Everyone disagreed, they told me to get lost
No judge no jury no kinda Probable cause
And Then their very first group decision was made
And it was that I should leave town, effective today
So I walked to the mouth of the cavern that I braved
So that everyone could enjoy what they have here today..
Turned my back and I moved
Learned a valuable lesson
The very thing I destroyed was my only source of protection
