Seven Steps To Redemption

Seven steps to redemption,
Seven ways to get me to heaven,
And on a cloud I see a light,
Those seven steps are gonna get me there tonight.

There came a day when noble thoughts were all alone,
There came a time when winds could eat you to the bone,
And I could tell that there was just one way in sight,
Those seven steps, I'd have to really get 'em right.

Seven steps to redemption,
Seven ways to get me to heaven,
And on a cloud I see a fading light,
Those seven steps just have to get me there tonight.

So I got in line to reach eternity,
The devil smirked as people lost all sanity,
Yet the growing light was giving him a real fright,
He knew that seven steps was all it took to make it bright.

And then there came a ray of warmth that cut the devil through,
His life had just grown shorter and his horns were turning blue,
Yeah, everyone just rubbed their eyes in pure delight,
Coz' we won't be needin' any seven steps tonight.
