Blasphemous Antichrist

I know I shouldn’t tempt to break or question golden rules This sacred inquisition’s plague could brand me as a fool I’m seeking resolution; it’s not aimed at any of you In giving my opinion I don’t mean to misconstrue Let others live as they choose to and let them make their bed The warnings and the threats aside, to try this route instead I’ve watched with hawk eye and with sword dangling above each head The righteous fragile path grows thin, so gently I must tread To serve a higher being gives insight to life hereafter But will you volunteer if you’ve been chosen as a martyr If not, a merciless wrath to face, a threat from someone smarter Do as I say, not as I do; a bribe could be a starter He leads me to what I should do, but leads not by example If I am stubborn or refuse, pain multiplied by ample Just follow with no questions asked, I’ll strike you if you do Does this seem fair, or right or just to anyone of you? So if I come to air the thoughts that trouble day by day When that day comes, will the door be closed, will I be shown away How can you turn your back on what you’ve taught me to believe? You can’t submit me into darkened holes of “truths” perceived
