Self explanatory
Corrupting souls they roam the world no one's safe no boy or girl
Envy anger lust and greed sloth and pride and gluttony
What you'll do no way to tell but they can lead you straight to hell
These 7 sins deadly may be if controlled by them then you're never free.
Need More and more, can't give it up, with food and drink there's never enough.
You must have it all, right now don't stall, Gluttony is your big downfall.
It's all for you, for no one else, cause you care only for yourself
Why share, all yours, it matters not, since full of Greed you are your only thought
Emotion ruling your whole life, brings you sorrow causes you strife
By letting the anger rule over your heart, then in the end you will fall apart
It's ok for you to feel proud, even at times singing those praises out loud
But too much pride it's just not smart, instead try to be humble full of heart
The devils playground lives in idle hands and with them much the devil plans
True laziness will take you nowhere, but so full of Sloth you just don't care
Can't you be happy with who you are, can't you see you as your own bright star
But instead you just stop and stare, so full of Envy for you life's never fair.
The need to feel good is all it's about seeking nothing but pleasure, inside and out
The physical desires controlling your mind, so full of the lust that's driving you blind.
The sins of Envy anger greed and lust making you do what you think you must
Such Gluttony, the sloth and pride, make for a date with the devil from whom you just can't hide
