War

Only to open a page
Chapters on holy wars and rage 

Blood flows as black as the ink
Soaking up humanity as evolving looses its link

God is oil
The currency is blood 

To call them animals would be to insult an animal 

There only claim 
Is to be in humane 

We are worse 
God we are in reverse 

Killing and dieing for a heavenly seat
While a motionless child lies dead on the street
