Question Life
I'm told that I should just have faith
I'm told that is the road to God
the love of God is faith
With faith I should then follow
Do not attempt to see
do not attempt to understand
the thoughts that God conceived
yet faith to me is hollow
sometimes deceived by man
do not the suicide bombers
have faith within their hands
they walk with faith and then destroy
The innocent do bleed
the church with faith fought
the crusades
great money made with death
again with faith the witch hunts
took many to their deaths
no my friend I will not lead
I do not want that job
Instead I would then have you ask
yourself for Gods insight
do not follow do not lead
with faith do not make others bleed
Stand up for what you think yourself
and question what you read
is what they say the truth I ask
I do believe with questions speak
