Birth of an Atheist
There is no God of this I'm sure
Once we die there is no more
Life comes to an end we have no hope
Religion, politics, love; they're all a joke
Why waste time on things which won't last?
We should do what we want, life moves too fast
No there's no God, Satan or Jesus
Even though the sound of those might please us
I believe they were just made up to tease us
So we could be controlled by what society may teach us
Fuck the church and their false teachings
Those who know nothing should not be preaching

This has a nice rhythm to it. I appreciate how it has a bit of a minimalist feel to it.
However, I'm puzzled by the "not even girls"... A jab at the clergy maybe? It just felt kind of out of nowhere. Either way a good enjoyable read.

All I meant by that last line was they don't seem to know anything beyond their manipulative sermons; they don't have a social life, they're too wrapped up in their power-hungry struggle for control... guess I should've said it like that lol
