CHORUS
Half of my blood is Cain's blood
Half of my blood is Abel's
One eye looks to Heaven
One eye looks for trouble
Sweet mother, she sang in the Sunday choir
On her head was a halo, she spoke brimstone and fire
Daddy lived by the bottle, Daddy died by the barn
Well, he froze one night, Mama said "Serves him
right"
"The devil can keep him warm"
CHORUS
Guess I always saw myself as a simple man
But there's a man in the mirror I don't understand
Every day I fight it, but I know down deep
It's the secrets I've been keeping
Rising from their sleep
CHORUS
There's an angel and a devil playing tug of war with
my soul (Half of my blood is Cain's blood)
The battle rages on each and every day (Half of my blood is Abel's)
It's all I can do just to try to maintain control (Half of my blood is
Cain's
blood)
My one and only hope(one and only hope) is to my knees and pray

Well, I dont know if you are religious or not, but I am a christian, and honestly, this gave me goosebumps. This is truly and inspiring piece of work, and i think i may teared up when I read the last line. Thank you for this blessing!

The song could be about the inner battle within us all. Paul explains it best in the book of Romans Chapter 7 verse 10-25.

Not sure what your question is...if you're looking for title and artist, the song is "Cain's Blood" by 4-Runner...1995 on Polydor Records. I used to be on the road with them back in the day...lots of fun!! You have good taste.

Depends on what you mean by spiritual.. My understanding of spiritual is to realize the true nature of one's self... As for this song, i'd say don't think much of it, there's hundred out there like it.. Just go out into the world with compassion, that always seems to work.

I like those lyrics.
I'm listening to a song at this moment.
Still like that old time rock 'n roll
That kind of music just soothes the soul
I reminisce about the days of old
still like that old time rock 'n roll
etc.
The past is the past....what to do with today...that's the dilemma?
Peace!
