Evangelion Canon & Gigue (Pachebel rap version)

Armageddon
[Verse 1] How many times must we start again
The creation of the world from beginning to end
What will it take before we learn
We gotta wake up now and show some concern
What will the future hold
How many untold stories will be told
Just what will the future bring
How many species of birds will have a song to sing
Man 'n' man can't even get on
'N' man 'n' women's been at war for far too long
Superior race, all this black and white vision
Catholic, Muslim there's too many religions
Too much hatred, too much greed
Ignorant people pollute the air that we breathe
We gotta wake up now before it's much too late
Hungry people need food on their plate
People bein' killed for just a few pence
Can you justify that, cause it makes no sense to me
You're growin' up much too fast
The destruction of mankind. How long would it last.
[Verse 2]
Perfect - that's what I'm strivin' to be
The next best thing won't do for me
I do my best, you disagree
Holier - than - thou, holier - than - me
Commitin' crimes with no remorse
As good as gold, now an evil force
One word description is a dis
You lick a boy down for his bag of cheese n onion crisp
And you don't even stop to think
Whatever happened to the dinosaurs could make us all extinct
I'm bein' judged by the clothes that I wear
We gotta educate those with a grudge to bear
But I'm content to a certain extent
You're condemned for life, it's too late to repent
Inna - most beauty, such a terrible waste
Caught between a rock 'n' a hard place.
[Verse 3]
Be judged by accordin' to what you've done
Live this life, the next is a better one
Eat the fruit from the tree of life
'Cause if you live by the sword... you'll die by the knife
How great and wonderful are your days
How right and true are your ways...
No more death, grief, cryin' or pain
'Cause only the good things will remain...
Heed my words 'cause what I'm sayin' is true
Treat them exactly as they treated you
Wipe away the tears from your eyes
Be proud, lift your head up - reach for the skies.
[Verse 4]
Condemned for what you did to them
Now see how quick they fall to worship him
There's a place in my heart that makes me understand
Prepared 'n' ready like a bride dressed to meet her husband
Treat life like a learning process
I said turn right, so you took a sharp left
Wake up and we'll all sleep peacefully
The sun shines but it still seems bleak to me
You tell a lie and convince me it's the truth
I'm well mannered but you still call me uncouth
I believe that there's got to be much more
I hope I'm ready when death comes knockin' on my door
Maybe tonight, maybe as I sleep
It can drive you mad if you think too deep
But don't have a breakdown because I called you a clown
You threw a punch 'n' missed, I killed you with a kiss
What on earth will you be then
The hour of your death amen
'N' all the prejudice that I've sustained
I know it sounds funny but I just can't stand the pain.

[mandarinduck]

Hah, I found this song on my computer just titled "Armageddon" without an artist or anything and was looking for more about it.

[disturbiadis]

o.o ! no sabia que existia un rap...worale

[RuroJiruries]

Ah, awesome this song is on YouTube. As far as I'm aware, this version was sung live in Bunkamura Orchard Hall (Shibuya, Tokyo). I'm guessing it could have been performed alongside the Live Symphony they did, as they were both produced/released the same year of '97.

Regardless, I love this song :) I don't usually hold Modernised versions of Classical Pieces highly either, but I guess being Evangelion I'm biased for it.
