Burdened by the world we live in
For the lives that we've been given
Wars fueled by religion and power
Deaths in vein every hour
I don't see why they should die
Over someone else's sacred lie
Can't understand why we should pay
For something in which we had no say
Born into hatred
Forged in the fires of malcontent
Plagued by deception
They are the masters of ill intent
Plant your thoughts in the minds of the weak
Inner intuition kept blurry and bleak
Bend them to your will
Fools are the ones who won't bear witness
Damned are the ones with no commitment
I have felt the cold breath, brought down by the will of death
I have heard your pleas and cries
I watched the life escape from your eyes
