1:
The fool says in his heart
There is no God.
Enthroning himself up on high,
Baring his folly and fraud.
Believing in a false free will,
But in his prison he is caught.
Chasing earthly fortune and fame
But they all come to naught.

CHORUS 1:
What the fool believes?!
He cannot see,
He is the man,
(the man of sin).
What the fool believes?!
God’s wisdom is despised,
For he’s right in his own eyes.
What the fool believes?!
His lust and his pride
Makes him fight skin for skin.
What the fool believes?!
Yes he believes?!
In what his mind can conceive!

2:
This fool thinks in his heart,
He can outwit God!
With his own good works in flesh,
He’s ensnared in his plot.
Aspiring to things on high,
But he’s always falling short.
Using his own reasoning,
But his arguments are flawed.

CHORUS 1:
What the fool believes?!
He cannot see,
He is the son,
(the son of destruction!).
What the fool believes?!
God’s wisdom is despised,
For he’s right in his own eyes.
What the fool believes?!
His lust and pride
Makes him fight skin for skin.
What the fool believes?!
Yes he believes
In what his mind can perceive!

BRIDGE:
We thank you Father!
For exposing this fool in our own lives,
We see our shameful nakedness and our self-righteousness,
Ashamed of our evil and our sinful deeds,
O Father, we ask forgiveness,
Clothe us with Your Righteousness through Christ Jesus!

CHORUS 1:
What the fool believes?!
He cannot see,
He is that man,
(the man of sin).
What the fool believes?!
God’s wisdom is despised,
For he’s right in his own eyes.
What the fool believes?!
His lust and pride
Makes him fight skin for skin.
What the fool believes?!
Yes he believes!
In what his mind can conceive!

ENDING:
This earthly Adam was made marred for destruction,
In the Potter’s hand, Adam was made in sin and corruption,
God will remove this temporary evil obstruction,
In Jesus Christ we are all set free indeed!
