Faith
Beat me into submission with your cross
Preach to me of pain and loss
Sit and pray for my soul
Control your only goal
I am evil…you are pure
How can we be sure
Make me confess sins I did not commit
Stop underestimating my wit
I know the truth others are afraid to see
I see past the man you pretend to be
Slander those who try to fight
Push them from man-made light
In the darkness the true light shines
For those who realize the signs
Religion is man and faith is God
Break free from the mindless pod
Let the truth set you free
Open your eyes and truly see
