Long Way From Paradise Lyrics

We got loud guitars and a rocking band
Ain't gonna stop until you understand
There's a whole world of evil
In the heart of man
It's a far, far cry from Caanon's land
It's a long way from paradise
We got carbon monoxide and acid rain
Designer drugs that can melt your brain
We got drive by murder
The mark of Cain
Neo-n***s and the K.K.K...
It's a long way from paradise
(Chorus)
Long way from paradise
Long way from paradise
You can play it safe, or roll the dice
But the heart of the city is as cold as ice
It's a long way from paradise

You know the thief on the cross
Didn't have much time
Had a talk with Jesus on the day he died
He said, "forgive me Lord,For my life of crime"
Got a gaurentee in the nick of time
He was a long way from paradise
(Chorus)
