  • Yeah, yeah, oh yeah, yeah, oh yeah
    When I see your face like the morning sun you spark to shine
    Tell all the world my need is fulfilled and that's a new design
    Oh, as long as you're near there is no fear of a victory
    But when I'm away influences stray my mind to disagree
    Ah, wanna see your face in the morning sun ignite my energy
    The cause and effect of you has brought new meaning in my life to me

    Gonna tell the story morning glory all about the serpentine fire
    Gonna tell the story morning glory all about the serpentine fire
    Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah

    I need to see your face in the morning sun ignite my energy
    The cause and effect of you has brought new meaning in my life to me
    The moment I find when I'm inclined to do my best
    Negative wins when I give in then I lose the test, not many times

    Gonna tell the story morning glory all about the serpentine fire
    Surely as life begun, you will as one, battle with the serpentine fire
    Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah

    Surely as life begun, you will as one, battle with the serpentine fire
    Surely as life begun, you will as one, battle with the serpentine fire

  • Planejane747 from Olympia,waOk look the idea behind this song is long before you have organized religion, so how can this be satanic, why do you think you are from fallen angels .....ha lol ....I mean please .....you are just a human.
  • Isis231bc from Los AngelesThe song is not demonic, which lets me know you are not from my culture. The serpentine fire which are the chakras along the spine in everyone that has a spine. Our connection with the divinity within each of us.
  • Baptiste Bala from St NeotsDefinitely a demonic ideology, wrapped in a colorful packaging.
  • Michelle "mykel" House from Charlotte NcI believe looking and being are two different things but you right if you want to trip that's your purogative, just keep in perspective how other people are going to handle your art /vibe because truth be told there's a difference between childish(step down) and childlike (step up)minded. Agapè Love Amen
  • Ja Nice Phillips from L.a.I always wondered what the song was talking about it's a wonderful concept and it's believable
