This God Is A Liar



There has to be a place better then this, together
We are all suffering here, forever
My God could not let this evil exist, never
He is a brainiac, clever
Straight soldier, warrior
Redemption, closure
Justice, my good luck clover
A pure man leading us all
Real even in all of his flaws
A kingdom where all of us are equal
Children taught with kindness
Not cruelty and fear
Woman are neither above or below, humanity
Men own no slaves, no one is worth less
Since the beginning of time, lies
Oppressed from the start
Robbed of our real history
This cannot be God's world
This has to be hell
Light and dark brings peace
If it is all light they destroy us
If it is all dark we are already dead
