Believe Or Not Believe

I do not knock religon, dark ages, through today I do believe it's up to you, if you do or do not pray If your beliefs are forced on you, your life is not your own Fear controls your every move, resist? They don't condone There's something deep inside you, it's been there since your birth Telling you what's right, what's wrong, and that is your true worth Thought police are growing strong, they work to change your kind they have their own philosophy, they want inside your mind It doesn't matter what you say, they twist to fit their needs propaganda, altered text, their way to plant the seeds Especially when you're very young, parents don't care less too busy with their train of thought, trying to impress Grow up bombarded, twisted truth, questions not allowed parents see you, young adult, they know why they're not proud One day you have a family, and then it's time to choose do you instill good values, or watch them grow and lose You can't ignore, no in-between, their future starts right here it's time to look inside your heart, have courage, do not fear I do not knock religon, dark ages, through today somewhere deep inside your mind, you know you'll find your way.....
