The Flesh

Pleasing the world
Being what they want you to be 
Torturing your soul
Trying to fit into a corrupt society 
Totally controlled by the flesh.
No thoughts about what happens after death
 
From outside going in 
Feeding the flesh 
With the sins of this world.


Now you’ve destroyed  your poor little soul
