Tombstone Da Deadman - Ballad of the Non-Believer lyrics

[Intro] Did you really think that I wasn't gonna address this; this album? Ha. Don't be ridiculous #GU [Verse 1] Like most of you I was indoctrinated with religion At a time when I was much too young to make decisions Dragged by the hand without permission Lacked the cognitive ability to see the contradictions and the superstitions I know my mother really thought that she was doing right Cause after all this wasn't a war that she was taught to fight Buried under layers of prayers emotional attachments And every other programming attached with A sense of common unity involvement No actual incentive to questions all of the sermons from the pulpit This is how they introduce the idea, firmly rooted in the fear Don't question validity just adhere It's not innocent is sets a bad precedent Internalized credulity for things that lack evidence Some people keep this way of thinking for their whole lives The need for critical thinking is never realized [Chorus] I don't want to hear about the books that you have read Explain to me the way you see the thoughts inside your head Not filtered with the garbage you regurgitate instead Your thoughts are just a program with which you are embed All I really want to do is show you there is freedom Eliminate those primitive myths you don't need them The clergy's only trolling for power So don't feed them And since they can't prove it remove it and don't believe them [Verse 2] Ponder the logic of learning science from shamans Excuse the laughter if you please I'm trying to keep it all in But this is how you look when you go and consult your preachers To gain an understanding of evolutionary features In fact I finding it despicable how you characterize scientific principles Dismiss the indispensable So don't believe these guys that say it's science they despise When they standing in the line for the iPhone 5 You're benefiting from the method then you go and step on it Defaming the very thing that your life has been affected with Our lifespan enhancement comes directly from advancements By people in lab coats not biblical enchantments Take a look at these comedians cause something smells funky "if we came from monkeys than why there're still monkeys" See that's the type of dumb sh** that needs to be responded to Your obvious accomplishment was dropping out of high school [Chorus] I don't want to hear about the books that you have read Explain to me the way you see the thoughts inside your head Not filtered with the garbage you regurgitate instead Your thoughts are just a program with which you are embed All I really want to do is show you there is freedom Eliminate those primitive myths you don't need them The clergy's only trolling for power so don't feed them And since they can't prove it remove it and don't believe them [Verse 3] You're not mentally fit to be talking sh** to me When you believe those primitive books are reflecting history In its purest form like it really has no discrepancy You want to go to war and you're choosing this as your weaponry Now how's that even sound at all and is this even logic when You're claiming that a book of faith can prove your stupid argument Way too much to bargain with not much fact to stake it on It's just like thinking if you dance you can really make it storm Oh yeah but I forgot your book is the truthful one And all those other ancient myths are something that is really dumb It couldn't possibly be that you all have been deceived It couldn't possibly be that you got a false belief That's why I question your sermon should be sequestered Now leave from off my porch you're starting to really pester You're one of many thousands that's claiming a revelation Too wrapped up in all of your ego to see your indoctrination [Chorus] I don't want to hear about the books that you have read Explain to me the way you see the thoughts inside your head Not filtered with the garbage you regurgitate instead Your thoughts are just a program with which you are embed All I really want to do is show you there is freedom Eliminate those primitive myths you don't need them The clergy's only trolling for power so don't feed them And since they can't prove it remove it and don't believe them
