Lauryn Hill - Adam Lives In Theory Lyrics

Send "Adam Lives In Theory" ringtone to your cell

Adam lives in theory tryin' to turn stone into bread

Masquerading like he's got it figured out

Cut off from the sunshine only smart in his own head

Leaving his descendants to hope and doubt

Left to his devices those worthless sacrifices

Praying to the altar of his self

Making pilgrimages thinking he's religious

Like he's got all the light and no one else

He takes the unsuspected

'Cuz he knows they're not connected

And he shows them how to be just as he is virtually real

And commercially appeal to the lust of all the people where he lives

Eve was so naive blinded by the pride and greed

Wanting to be intellectual

Drifting from the way she got turned down one day

And now she thinks that she's bisexual

Caught up in emotion burning up in her devotion

To the king of exploitation in the field

She handed him her virtue 'cuz he told "I won't hurt you"

So she lay with him to see how good it feels

Now can you tell me what what we gonna do now?

Where we gonna go now? What we gonna say now?

Now can you tell me what what we gonna do now?

Where we gonna go now? What we gonna say now?

Now after the sensation and the empty fornication

She brought infection home into her bed

Quickly multiplying now the three of them are dyin'

By the poison she perceived to be good

Now Eve and her husband are perverted in their judgment

'Cuz everything appeared to be the same

They entertain suggestions next time just use protection

Desiring to cover up their shame

But much to their demise poor decision closed their eyes

To the very antidote of their dilemma

Burning in their lust both of them adulterous

Destroying the original agenda

Praying to the sky in order to maintain a lie

They exhausted every possible conclusion

They can't even entertain or the solution in a brain

Or filled with vain information and pollution

Hiding from the truth he provided an excuse

To explain away his desperate situation

When confronted blamed his wife giving birth to carnal life

Refusing to acknowledge what he'd done

And now if we can agree with who created us to be

Who says we're guilty everyone before His eyes

Making no exceptions since the day of our conception

Predisposed to hating truth and loving lies

Then can you tell me what what we gonna do now?

Where we gonna go now? What we gonna say now?

Now can you tell me what what we gonna do now?

Where we gonna go now? What we gonna say now?

Stop walking in pride let the thief be crucified

Unlearn everything you know and let Him teach you

Line upon line and precept upon precept

Say goodbye to this decaying social system

He wants to know how far we're willing to go?

If we love Him like we say we do He'll try us

Just you don't regress or slip into hopelessness

Once He's satisfied His love He won't deny us

And then He'll tell us what what we gonna do now

Where we gonna go now what we gonna say now

And then He'll tell us what what we gonna do now

Where we gonna go now what we gonna say now

I'm telling you telling you I'm telling you

I'm telling you I'm telling you I'm telling you

He's gonna tell us tell us tell us

Ooh! Yeah
