Locked in and trapped stuck here
I’m feeling helpless
I need strength to fight this fear
Becoming restless
Can’t fight this feeling burning inside of me
The lights burned out
I’m running down and it’s killing me

Devil shoots devil
And it’s so hard to see
Seems like this vicious cycle
Has got the best of me

Avarice, Envy, Pride has set this heart on fire
Avarice, Envy, Pride has set this heart on fire
Avarice, Envy, Pride has set this heart on fire
Avarice, Envy, Pride has set this world on fire
Fire!

Locked in and trapped stuck here
I’m feeling helpless
I need strength to fight this fear
Becoming restless now

⁴ For it is impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted the heavenly gift, and have become partakers of the Holy Spirit, ⁵ and have tasted the good word of God and the powers of the age to come, ⁶ if they fall away, to renew them again to repentance, since they crucify again for themselves the Son of God, and put Him to an open shame.
–Hebrews 6:4-6 (NKJV)–

²⁰ For if, after they have escaped the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, they are again entangled in them and overcome, the latter end is worse for them than the beginning. ²¹ For it would have been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than having known it, to turn from the holy commandment delivered to them. ²² But it has happened to them according to the true proverb: “A dog returns to his own vomit,” and, “a sow, having washed, to her wallowing in the mire.”
–2 Peter 2:20-22 (NKJV)–

If anyone does not abide in Me, he is cast out as a branch and is withered; and they gather them and throw them into the fire, and they are burned.
–Jesus Christ in John 15:6 (NKJV)–

²⁷ “You have heard that it was said to those of old, ‘You shall not commit adultery.’ ²⁸ But I say to you that whoever looks at a woman to lust for her has already committed adultery with her in his heart. ²⁹ If your right eye causes you to sin, pluck it out and cast it from you; for it is more profitable for you that one of your members perish, than for your whole body to be cast into hell. ³⁰ And if your right hand causes you to sin, cut it off and cast it from you; for it is more profitable for you that one of your members perish, than for your whole body to be cast into hell.
–Jesus Christ in Matthew 5:27-30 (NKJV)–

⁴⁷ And if your eye causes you to sin, pluck it out. It is better for you to enter the kingdom of God with one eye, rather than having two eyes, to be cast into hell fire— ⁴⁸ where ‘Their worm does not die and the fire is not quenched.’ ⁴⁹ “For everyone will be seasoned with fire, and every sacrifice will be seasoned with salt. ⁵⁰ Salt is good, but if the salt loses its flavor, how will you season it? Have salt in yourselves, and have peace with one another.”
–Jesus Christ in Mark 9:47-50 (NKJV)–
