Analysis of Blasphemy At Its Best
O' tyrannical, vengeful one...
spite was your downfall...
you cast down commandments
while sin and greed corrupt your image
laying waste to the beauty you claim to have created...
we are supposed to believe you are always near
yet we watch our brothers die alone, sad, and in fear...
drawing weary of your claims
I take my fate from your translucent hands
retaining only my demands...
