Adam (Hebrew: אָדָם; Aramaic/Syriac: ܐܕܡ; Arabic: آدم) is a figure from the Book of Genesis who is also mentioned in the New Testament, the deuterocanonical books, the Quran, the Book of Mormon, and the Book of Iqan. According to the creation myth of the Abrahamic religions, he was the first human.
In the Genesis creation narratives, he was created by Yahweh-Elohim ("Yahweh-God", the god of Israel), though the term "adam" can refer to both the first individual person, as well as to the general creation of humankind. Christian churches differ on how they view Adam's subsequent behavior of disobeying God (often called the Fall of man), and to the consequences that those actions had on the rest of humanity. Christian and Jewish teachings sometimes hold Adam and Eve (the first woman) to a different level of responsibility for the Fall, though Islamic teaching holds both equally responsible. In addition, Islam holds that Adam was eventually forgiven, while Christianity holds that redemption occurred only later through the sacrifice of Jesus Christ. The Bahá'í Faith, Islam and some Christian denominations consider Adam to be the first prophet.
Look into my stray soul wandering somewhere in the fields
In my deviant visions hidden in the pits
Of imagination worlds that came into existence in my head
Hidden behind the mask taken off in front of you
I'm crucified ghost
I can't live or find the calmness
In the world of both dead and alive
I'm dancing with a daemon in a cruel dance of destiny
Dance of life, dance of death, dance of redemption
I'm escaping from all that disturbs me
To the centre dark of my core
When my time comes
I'll win or I'll lose of that is my destiny
I'm a lonely warrior fighting for my existence
I'm bathed in blood that is a tear of soul
A tear of eternal sleep a drop that powders with regret
I'll win or I'll lose of that is my destiny
The time of reflection has come about your own existence
Listen to the words of truth
