Atheist
This world is ours to rule alone.
All other beings are completely unknown.
Any Godly being you simply cannot prove,
Nor would I let one step in on my groove.
How sweet my life is with no limitations,
Eating whatever I please without hesitations
All of my matters are without any restrictions,
Nor do I need to solve the Bible’s boring encryptions.
A fool is what you are, believing in something that doesn’t even exist
Why hold yourself back from all that life can consist?
It must be that someone has led you astray
Who has time to pray each day?
You are missing out on, oh, so many joys!
You spend all your money on foolishness - but what about toys?
A bike, a big house, some clothing or a Ferrari
Take a vacation to Africa and visit the safari!
I truly don’t care – it’s no loss to me.
I know what it feels like to be truly free.
Just don’t come back saying that I didn’t warn you
When you spent your whole life with the wrong angle of-view.
Believer
Oh what a sorry sight for sore eyes you are
Spending all of your money on drinks in a bar
There is a God in this world, you see
And that is something that I can definitely guarantee
You say your life is lived without a single constriction
Well then please hear me out for just one benediction
You would say ‘Freedom’ is your perfect life’s depiction
But all I see in you is one large thorough drug addiction
You are enslaved inside of your desire’s jurisdiction
If only you could see the harm in your meaningless dereliction
All the things that you view as a horrible interdiction
Is really, from the desires infliction, a long needed eviction
For the one who is scared of giving his life any bit of friction
Here me out now for just one last accurate prediction
You will see in all of your words the blatant contradiction
That the things you do are based off books of science fiction
Now you better not say that I never warned you
As all of the worlds desires you desperately try to subdue
Staring up at the sky at night while it is so starry
I really do hope that in the end you don’t end up sorry.
