God told me to skin you alive

What stupid passage in some book makes you think
You’re given dominion over everyone on Earth
Seeping arrogance all over the lives you ruin
Fickle condescending grossly inflated toxic scum

I would kill you in an instant given the chance
You’ve damned our future for the sake of something not alive

You have your self needs, and I need to make you pay
Just remember Mussolini, hung and gutted in the streets
I would see you tortured for your crimes against us all
It still wouldn’t be enough if it lasted a thousand years

I don’t think you realize what exactly you have done
Damning all the future daughters and sons

You’ve got no control of the beast you have unleashed
Imminent extinction for every life on earth
You could stop it now but you don’t have the courage
Shrug your shoulders and laugh while the Earth burns
