Man's Eternal Slavery

Man's Eternal Slavery

Man is born into chains of his own design,
grown rusty and long, passed down through time.

His life is spent looking for a non-existent key,
be it Allah, Yahweh, or Christ Jesus, hung on a tree.

Old age doesn't improve his capacity to see,
lifetimes are wasted seaching for a reason to be.

Refusing to understand, that he will never understand,
His insane quest goes ever forward, scouring the land.

He finds a magic book that let's him know what is good,
Quantum physics, the bible, anything that can be understood

Only on his deathbed, does he finaly come to know,
that his science is as useless, as his televangelist's show.

For in listening to all the explanations he could,
He neglected to look in the only place he should.

When God made man, he included the key.
Inside every man, lies the means to be free.
