Trapped Within The Flesh

A disease
Deep-rooted into humankind
Since everything began
All in lie designed

So afraid of eternal damnation
Far away from illumination
Prayer for salvation
All in imagination

So blessed
In life's distress
Prisoner of your own mind
Can't escape the net

Chains of doctrine, forged in fear
Wore with pride, suppress the tear

A disgrace for the ancient blood
You are waiting for a savior to come
Life and death is in your hands
Yet you put yourself in hang

So blessed
In life's distress
Prisoner of your own mind
Can't escape the net

Chains of doctrine, forged in fear
Wore with pride, suppress the tear
No gods, no kings, just dirt and lust
Humanity lost, betrayed its trust

Drowned in hypocrisy
Suffocated by this curse
Afraid of your own existence
Trapped within the flesh

As the fates weave your thread
You wither, numb, hollow, misled
It seems you always forget
The face of the world is in yourself

Fear is not something that comes from outside
It is the response of thought to a challenge
When thought is confronted with the unknown
It becomes frightened
Fear is the outcome of identification
Of division between 'what is' and 'what should be'
The 'me' and the 'not me'
