Counterfeit Deity

A long time ago

During an age without scripture and minimal language

A difficult transition

From roaming packs to organized tribes

No science to help

Some difficult questions needed their answers

Divided nations

Demanded creation of fearless soldiers

Clerical manipulation

For procreation

Clitoridectomy

Infibulation

Spreading through the masses as the perfect virus

Conquering, altering mind after mind

Meticulously, viciously harnessing the blind

Spirited apes reduced to mindless insects

Mandatory reproduction so that we can conquer the Earth

Showing mercy only to the ones who convert

No room in our history for the unbeliever

Believe in our gods or be destroyed by fire

Forgive me my father

For what you have done

Abuse me my father

In silence I endure

Torture me my father

I have faith in pain

Expiate my sins

By penitence

Self-consciousness is a double-edged sword

The need to be above all other animals

Illusive Deity

An escape from the anxieties of death

Given the hope of immortality

Deceptive Deity

A remedy to our pain and suffering

The only path to a blessed eternity

Synthetic Deity

A magic pill to confuse the human psyche

The perfect plot to destroy the skeptic mind

Counterfeit Deity

Admire and devote your life to a master

One who pretends to be the life giver

The dominion is built for multiple reasons

Scheming to turn everyone into a minion

Divide, conquer and submit every population

Engineer of mass manipulation

Instrument of mass destruction

Bow before the counterfeit deity

Get down on your knees and bow down to your god

Get down on your knees and suffer for your god

Get down on your knees and bow down to your god

Get down on your knees and suffer for your god

Ask for a proof and your faith will be suspected

Never be like the one who needed to touch the wounds

The analytical might be judged and be rejected

The total devotee is to be received in my kingdom

Your

God

Disrespect

Your children’s mother

Behind the veil

A woman mourns

It never ends

Control by threat

It never ends

The guilt of our sins

It never ends

Lies of the Holy Scriptures

It never ends

Screaming in death’s ear

Guiding light of the lost sheep

Why am I abandoned to melancholy

Slaves by our own will to obey the rules

Dictated by the profiteers of our feebleness

Enslaved to be disciples instead of masters

Of the only existence we have to live

Terminate the ones who don’t have your faith

Ushers in senseless wars for supremacy

An ocean of blood has flown over the years

To fulfill some prophet’s aspirations

Their God, he loathes me

Their God, despises me

Master of Death, forgive me

Taker of Life, spare me

Master of Death, forgive me

For years I have been

Screaming in death’s ears for God
