Human Cult

I keep my eyes on the unseen
Idols of flesh crumble around me
Faith never bleeds in human hands

Building their shrines from broken scriptures
Wolves in lambs' skin, preaching control
Turning their pride into sacred doctrine

It's not the cross that scatters me
But rotten fingers pointing at my face

The bride was never led astray
She's always held a mirror where
Few can face who they are

It was never faith that broke me down
Just ego crowned and hailed as saint

I see the truth used as a weapon of war
Between lies and fear stained with guilt
Conscience buried beneath hollow skulls from a human cult

Minds bow to inherited chains
Surviving empty oaths
The veil dissolves into this plain sight
Unbound by sacred edicts carved in shame

I'll never follow temples that revel in ashes
Where painted crowns enslave those lost within
My breath was sworn to winds no chain could tame
Leading me where silent embers still burn
Unchained, I turn my mind away from a human cult
