Faith (This Was Then)

I built an arc of my own and it houses both body and mind...brain waves and stimulants hand made to placate all species
I will not be flooded by ancient shovanistic philosophy where men ruled and a womans soul was condemned for enjoying life's gifts
They were deemed whores...mothers and daughters and you pray for them...all...as you find yourself, still under control...

Last time I checked the clock it was now
Last time I believed in myth I didn't understand my soul
Last but not least are the sacred cattle...let them pass and battle your views to make enough room for ignorance on this trip
2 by 2's to form crooked pews for you to kneel down, open wide and unzip...

They were slaves to a greater society who didn't judge on sexuality...homo or hedero...
Let histories guide show that it didn't matter and you could reign supreme for what you were...a human being...
I would have also had faith in all that was opposite to oppose those that suppressed us
Slaves created their own language, so did they create their own beliefs from dust...
In a book that you mistook this whole time as fact...let me part this sea as I part your legs
Unless we aren't bound then it would be viewed as fornication...fear used to deny you from your gods given instinctual relations

Why do you learn in your universities and still deny history and have faith in these ideocracies and pure fantasies
Honor students...your tassels are tuned to fiction, as faith is interfering with the signal

12 disciples...all men...following man where as god is man and he is reffered to as such
Please drink the holy water so it lives out its purpose and isn't just wasted...wading, only used for touch
Let woman have desires and not be condemned or reffered to as sluts...

This was then...and this is now....
That was when you gave your vows...and logic was overwritten by faith...
I have faith in humans...you, man and you, woman, tangible and intangible...sensible and intellectual
I will pray for that...as prayers aren't holy they are merely projections...outward reflections for those intended
Feelings that you hope can someday be mended...

My point of view is only skewed by reality...
These crooked pews also form monetary dues passed on by collection...
...and at the reckoning you will be slighted for a quarter
Pay up mother fucker...only then can you drown yourself in the holy water...

Even commandments speak of slaves, as if that was ok, so your faith must be subjective
Then so must be these words written in text, as are the subjects they speak
...is it salvation you seek?
Look within yourself, do not covet wealth, and do not kill, or find a thrill in theft
This is humanism, my commandments...god damn it...and to own another human being is the worst of all sins.
Yet the holiest of the holy were told by god himself that it was fine...shit, some were even considered divine

Base your beliefs on history's facts...for all books have mass
Its real as were they, being tortured for who they were and how they behaved
and they preach at mass now and tell you what you should do and how they were saved
...or have yet to be...
An unfortunate circumstance of the time when they weren't free
They make you beg for forgiveness or you will be forever damned
..for they are the proclaimed herders and we are nothing more than the lamb...

This was then...and this is now...
Question your belief's in the who, what, where, when, whys and how's
It is there written for you in black and white, but our eyes allow us to see in shades of grey
Don't just read these words and blindly pray...please take some time and open your mind...
So you can have faith in what they truly say
