Unhealthy Beliefs
I have things in my head that don't belong
Don't get me wrong, were all born to sin
Now if you would just co-sign, my little angel,
We could figure this out
I can see in colors you can't imagine
I listen to things that don't make sounds
I speak in tongues that are used for stabbing
And I hold many things that have no bounds
Be careful what you wish for because I'm compliant
So easily used, you'll become reliant
A harmless abuse
But I'll leave you dying
Have you ever wondered about my ideas?
Housed in my head, carved with smile
They'll make you insane,
Bricks carved in my membrane
Straw thoughts loosed from the back of my dome
To blow you away
My influence is made of sticks like dynamite,
They cut at the tip like diamonds might
Get it right, ground yourself and stay in the fight.
Have you ever seen a miracle?
Lower your standards and I swear you will
And I beleive there's someone above
Killing his people who beg for love
Drugging our minds with words read man,
Swearing divine salvations with a bloody hand
Commanding us to hold truths without ground
It's no wonder religion's so structurally sound
Now if we take a look down
Sesame Street
Taking a look down at our feet
An imprint, a mold we tried to fill
Walking in shoes
Preconformed to a will
Scaled at a skew
And paved to a pew
Masterly misleading
And artfully stealing
Healthy minds
And turning them ill
