DEATH and TAXES: Bloody Truth

 Which comes first, life or death?
All of you would say life,
but I say otherwise;
there was destruction and death
before life was created.
There was darkness,
and everything was
just an empty space...
until the creation of the universe.
Then there was light!
So it's true, darkness comes first
before daylight...
and that's a fact, according to whom?
The truth of the matter is:
no one really knows!
You would say it was written
in the Bible according to Genesis,
but what if those were lies
manipulated by Satan
to make us believe?

To seek the light
beyond the horizon
is like looking for a needle
in the haystack;
eliminate the variables,
and take a paradigm shift,
then we can see clearly
what we're looking for.
If you don't trust me,
it's your bleed and not mine!

The truth lies within our grasp:
in our minds, and in our souls...
If we believe in something -
that's the TRUTH for some of us;
In this world, only two things are certain:
DEATH and TAXES--
and that's the bloody TRUTH!
