Ignorance

I live in a land of ignorance Hypocrisy And shame No one tells the truth They hide behind religion Claiming they're exempt From the sins they commit By praying to a God That doesn't exist If he did He'd be deaf and blind To me at least I feel like a I'm a joke The whipping girl To a cruel deity We live in a world Where the losers are winners And the righteous are sinners I get questioned daily About why I'm an atheist Just look at my body and mind And you will see Just how cruel life can be I got dealt a hand a cannot hold Maybe I should just fold The cards are rigged And my fate is sealed I'll never be a winner So why play at all
