[Intro]
I know a man who thinks of no others (Filthy Rockwell)
Always chasing after money
Thinks a poor man is funny
It's hard (I'm from another planet)

[Verse 1]
I was an unplanned pregnancy brought forth by a mistake
Born into a world filled up with lust and take
Little do I know about life, but I'm still learnin'
First I must journey through Hell without burnin'
Livin' in the ghettos, the Devil is now a black man
I saw him standin' on the corner with the crack man
Little do I know this Hell is now my home
Since birth, the peace I've known is now gone
Life to death, days pass, I'm still growin'
Death is my faith in this Hell but never knowin' when
But how do I survive without sin?
But "Thou shall not kill" is my first, then I broke all Ten
Commandments, I guess I'm doomed to go to Hell
But I'm already there, so tell another tale
From the dark side of myself, I'm entangled
Between Heaven and Hell, I'm a fallen angel

[Chorus]
It's hard to believe he's a child of God, oh yeah
It's hard to believe he's a child of God, oh yeah
It's hard to believe he's a child of God, oh yeah
It's hard to believe he's a child of God, oh yeah
It's hard to believe he's a child of
[Verse 2]
Eighteen years pass, never knew about love
The sky is fallen so I fell from the Heavens above
Product of the sins, my father, I never knew him
Call the exorcist 'cause the Devil done got to him
Voodoo child son of a bitch is a bastard
Sold my soul and now I'm the master
My mother sings the blues and drinks booze
And then she prays to save my soul from bad news
Tears fall, I hear my mother call on the Lord
At night I be playin' in my room on the Ouija board
Screamin' redrum at the top of my lungs
When I close my eyes, visions of bodies being hung
Death is my destiny, life is a test to me
Living inside my own sins of blasphemy
From the dark side of myself, I'm entangled
Between Heaven and Hell, I'm a fallen angel

[Chorus]
It's hard to believe they're children of God, oh yeah
It's hard to believe he's a child of God, oh yeah
It's hard to believe he's a child of God, oh yeah
It's hard to believe he's a child of God, oh yeah
It's hard to believe he's a child of

[Verse 3]
As my soul gets deep into darkness, can I be saved?
My life flash before my eyes in many ways
I saw me in my earlier days of wicked ways
"Cross my heart and hope to die" is on my grave
Written on my tombstone, rest in peace
Rotten body in the ground as the maggots feast
See, I live so fast and die so young
Another victim of another brother drinkin' his redrum
I'm fallin' from the Heavens, and I'm on my way
To meet the Maker, the Undertaker, 'cause now is Judgement Day
My soul is high and my body is all rotten
Another angel falls from the Heavens forgotten
Without a clue, nobody knew the knowledge to teach me
'Cause fuck the teacher and fuck the preacher
As my soul will perish inside myself, I'm entangled
An outcast from the Heavens, so I'm a fallen angel
[Outro]
It's hard to believe he's a child of God, oh yeah
It's hard to believe he's a child of God, oh yeah
It's hard to believe he's a child of God, oh yeah
It's hard to believe he's a child of
They talk about justice and being free
But now why'd you listen so easily
Yes, it's hard
It's hard to believe they're children of God, oh yeah
It's hard to believe he's a child of God, oh
