The Power Of Religion
In this forsaken
This land of the taken
These memories shaken
Why have I awakened?
The time has come now
For you all to bow down
To the new leader now
Will this be allowed?
We hungry and lonely
The ****** and the lowly
Forced to worship the holy
The one and the only
This god who forbade us
Who made us and changed us
Is it just me
Who is dying to see
What it means to be free
To choose what to believe
Will someone explain
If in this new reign
Will life be the same
Can we even blame?
The ones who allowed it
Are those who endowed it
They saw it befit
To make us commit
Now to doubt is a crime
Itβs no better with time
We must rely on these rhymes
To break the confines
So in these words I impart
The plagues of my heart
So you may take part
When this order falls apart...
