deny the preacher in mid sentence?
Leave him sobbing in repentance?
I've said to you before,
how you're like sheep led to slaughter.
Blind following the blind
who you let stand on the altar
but our daughters
and our sons
look up to us with eyes that glisten.
All they need is the truth
from elders not willing to listen.
Covering their ears to a message overdue
Consistently fighting truth
but what is true to you?
what exactly can you prove?
So adamantly they deny
choosing to be sheep and stay blind to the lie.
A lie that seems to be so perfectly rehearsed
and faith got 'em believing the lies within the verse.
The lies within the pages, got their minds
locked in cages
trying to pull mine in too!
They have no clue!
What is truth?
Usurping it like children,
no research no proof
sold hope for 10% and wonder why they're so aloof
The noose wrapped so tightly it causes
mental mutilation
pure devastation
conscious asphyxiation
No stimulating conversations
they're emotions run too high
and they'll lose their last breathe
trying to defend the lie.
Dangle that book in their face
they're sure to follow like bate
too confused to comprehend
belief and truth don't equate
it ain't the same, and I get it
you do you I do me
but I can't stay silent
I'm trying to get you free!
I'm trying to get you to see
what this truth is all about
better to have the truth
than indefinite doubt
pure truth like water
but you're living in a drought.
Trying to lead you to the right path
because you're on the wrong route.
unknowingly following evil
who plagiarized stories from your people.
if I told you the truth, could you accept the words
could you properly deduce the information that you heard?
Build on conversation without being uncouth?
Could you impartially separate a lie from the truth?
