My Heaven

Society pre-approved answers
Meant to keep a line in perfect formation
Taught to obey because he's your creator
Forced fed information
Why you think the path is so damn narrow
It's follow the leader
His lack of patience
Limits your choices to one direction
World wasn't made for us
Created for a mans ego
Rules made to confine minds
He never wanted people and freedom
Just robots with bendable knees willing to worship
Free thinkers get labeled sinners
Women praising words that don't see them as equal
Married couples with no trust
But never questions what some man is preaching

Strangers calling strangers brother till that brother really needs something
So many want to spread the message
But fail to see the hate it holds
And I'm wrong for asking questions
Well then let me make a statement
Anytime I have to choose
I pick myself
I don't need to die to find a better place
My afterlife will consist of rest
For these days that I'm living
I wouldn't trade for pearly gates or streets of gold
For the world I know
This world
Is my heaven
