Cain and Abel

(Verse 1)

Cain and Abel, two sons of the ground,

One worked the soil, the other watched the flock go ‘round.

Cain brought his crops, thought he’d make it hot,

But God chose Abel’s gift, gave it all he got.

(Pre-Chorus)

Cain felt the heat, jealousy in his soul,

Watching Abel blessed, couldn’t keep control.

Thoughts in his head, darkness took lead,

One choice made, now his hands stained red.

(Chorus)

Cain got mad, yeah, anger in his heart,

Caught Abel in the field, tore him apart.

Strike after strike, no turning back,

Blood on the ground, lost in the black.

(Verse 2)

God came down, voice like thunder,

“Where’s your brother, Cain?” Left him to wonder.

“Am I my brother’s keeper?” Cain tried to hide,

But the truth ran deep, couldn’t slip by the sky.

(Bridge)

Marked on his face, curse he can’t shake,

Walkin’ alone, every step is a weight.

Echoes of Abel, hauntin’ his mind,

No rest for the wicked, no peace he can find.

(Chorus)

Now he’s outcast, wanderer on the land,

Once had a brother, now blood on his hands.

A warning in pain, envy too real,

The story of Cain—when hate gets you killed.

(Outro)

This is the tale, yeah, the cost of the pride,

Brothers divided, love pushed aside.

Lesson to all, for those who can feel,

Watch what you harbor—jealousy kills.
