54. Small Axe

Why boasteth thyself, oh, evil men,
playing smart and not being clever? oh no!
I said, you're working iniquity to achieve vanity, yeah, but the goodness of Yahjah
I-dureth forever

If you are the big tree, we are the small axe
sharpened to cut you down, ready to cut you down

These are the words of my master, keep on tellin me,
No weak heart shall prosper, oh no they can't!
And whosoever diggeth a pit, Lord, shall fall in it, shall fall in it
Whosoever diggeth a pit shall bury in it ...
