Faithless (Am I) |
| September 2012, |
| Cameron Smith, |
| Hotel Books, |
| I believe that intelligence is relative but wisdom is universal, |
| I believe that life is not a performance and no-one gets a rehearsal, |
| I accept that nature is our environment and deserves to be well kept, |
| But nurture is our calling and it is the reason we were ever made to exist, |
| I believe that answers are scarce and that’s what makes them worth it, |
| Universalism is fraud just like the matchbook we use called religion, |
| Feeble attempts at running a match on sand paper hoping it lights, |
| When the flame starts with passion not an understanding of all things in life, |
| Philosophy was made to dissolve our natural comfort of ignorance, |
| God existed long before us and that’s where we find our solutions, |
| Heads in the sand shuts out our demons but also shuts our light to see visions, |
| I believe you were made to be alive and your life is your mission, |
| Incisions and visions small holes to let truth seek through and dilute the |
| water we let our hearts dive into, |
| Looking for monetary incentives but lack the repentance to seek love despite |
| our apprehension, |
| Like a prison sentence, we all fear heaven, |
| Like the unknown ocean that happens most of our worlds convention, |
| Our own conviction is resistant because we fear being misrepresented, |
| Or misinterpreted with no real grounding to base our relations, |
| We take a vacation from the truths we used to subscribe to called revelations, |
| A nation of prescriptions and solutions and narcotics found abusive, |
| Relying on conclusions before asking the right questions, |
| Skip a section, skip a sequence, and find yourself bleeding, |
| Forfeited destination to avoid temporary mistreatment, |
| Our remedies feel like potions and our leaders practice hypnosis to garnish the |
| abortion of passion from our devotion, |
| Stricken with foreign motives we have lost our footing and are falling into |
| this ocean, |
| Convincing our children to compromise with depression, |
| And to practice being an activist, |
| To poison our opinions of gods presence, |
| Sometimes I try to look back and figure out what happened, |
| We were made to be one nation under god, |
| Not one nation under personal advancements, |
| And this modern fight for temporary happiness instead of joys, poison and |
| regression, |
| But in the kingdom of heaven we are free from the suppression |
| We were given a choice, |
| We were given a voice, |
| No longer do we have to inject this poison, |
| Cause in the kingdom of heaven, we are free from the suppression, |
| We were made to be one nation under god, |
| Not one nation under religion, |
| We were made to be one nation under god, |
| Not one nation under personal advancements. |
