Sinful Religion

I saw their souls, their souls were whole

I saw their religion, it was divisive

My way is right they said

Ergo everyone else must be wrong

Same reason for killing

Same old song

The dead and the killer were separated by scriptures,

And their deaths resulted in the burning of shrines.

Satan and humans signed a contract of atrocity.

Men were pulled from their bedrooms,

And their relatives performed the last rites before their death.

The tears of the newly widowed,

Failed to cover the nakedness of their bruised bodies.

Think oh think, is your god is so small

So narrow that he/she built but one path to heaven?

This was when religion emerged regal,

And humanity died a thousand times,

We are all but microbes on a grain of sand

Spinning on an endless beach eternally

Evolve then beyond religion

Superstition leads to perdition

The hell of the mind for those too blind

When would this religion chain loosen the grip?

When would man derive the courage to break this evil shackle?
