wall street preachers

this is aimed at all the preachers who claim they have "divine" power and cleanse man of sickness in a bid to be paid for it....makes me sick.

no hope, false faith

sin is a business, preachers pay.

no hope, no dreams

this money grabbing reality.

black book, black ink.

religious contract you're bound with.

preach poorly, rob blatantly

mass manufactured blasphemy

they roamed the earth for too damn long

suited, booted, singing holy songs.

words of god spoke with snake like tongues,

 hide the truth, make sure freedom isn't ever sung.

grace the audience with the voodoo and illusion 

comatose, liberated, what a false conclusion.

rebirth in the hands of a false prophet

just another days work if you think about it.

i wouldn't mind if these preachers never wake again.

fall asleep, rise in hell, their money wouldn't save them

lock them in a stone box, wrap them in the flames.

eternally brand them with religious shame.

We got lots of those evangelical preachers over on this side of the Atlantic and the Middle East has Imams that do the same thing. Religion is a gimmick. Great poem.

too right man. we got so many here aswell. street preachers and others in churches and what not. i just don't understand how a mortal can fully extend your leg 3 inches out of your socket unless its ronny coleman who mistakes it for a chicken wing. anyway sorry for the ramble. thanks for reading!
