It's Not Bad Luck

"It's not Bad Luck ."

It's not bad luck the wrong you've done
is just catching up with your ass.
Do you think you can continue on messing
up and the Most High is going to give you a free pass.
There's a price to pay for everything good or bad
a reward is what you're going to receive.
But what goes around comes around
is not what those who sowed believe.
Scripture tells you that you shall reap what you
sow and many have reaped a terrible price.
When you sow bad seeds you're going to reap them
if the Sodomites could tell you they'd say Yah is nothing nice.
There is forgiveness but the circumstances
must be dealt with no matter how bad.
When it comes to knowing what's right but you
do what's wrong anyway you purposely make Yah mad.
As children when we did wrong we caught whippings
the switch would make you scream I'm not going to do it no more.
When your parents were through the lesson
was learned and your behind was sore.
Today the children don't catch whippings they say that
teaches them violence, yeah right, violence on you.
Because scripture says the children will be their rulers
being afraid and running from the youth the people do.
Discipline is Yah's way and some folk with a degree
are going to tell you that whipping isn't the way.
Well all those kids that murdered other kids proved
Time out didn't work well I'd say.
What goes around comes around is real
and you shall reap the bad seeds that you sow.
There's a cost to everything that you do
even those things you thought hidden Yah does know.
You ain't having bad luck your mess is catching
up and pretty soon you're going to pay.
This is what happens when you allow satan
to come into your life and have things his way.
It's not bad luck just bad timing because you're
never ready for the reaping that is going to come.
When you are brought down to your knees in sorrow
you'll know that Yah is where your reaping is coming from.
