Religion

When did it begin ? The twisting and changing of the truth That frees souls from sin How did it get to this point? What was once so pure Now only disappoints I'm not surprised why People don't believe When they've lost all hope In a faith that should be so deep There is not one single man to blame Not one individual that we can name That can take responsibility for the pain That turned hearts to live a life in vain The power of the people Is the power that is now so feeble A power that lost sight of what is equal And forgot who determines Good and evil And gave we that power away to a few Quickly opinions were changed as to what is true They wove an almost spotless web Of lies and deceit that left Those who knew no better, spiritually dead And now we live in the time of Limitless knowledge When before wisdom was only Closed off to the privileged Yet so many are still Lost in the fog of tradition Not questioning whether or not They are being grown by their religion So focused on the actions and opinions That the need for faith Got strangled by external conditions Never obtaining knowledge from the Sword of the spirit But from the opinions of high priests Spewing lifeless teaching to anyone Who was willing to hear it What do they mean by In the name of the Father, Son & Holy Spirit? Where is the functioning of the Spirit? Does it match the supernatural acts that Jesus insisted? When will the thirst for eternal freedom Transform this world of sin? How much pain will it take? For the need for love shake this world into awakening
