Who is running this joint
I can do a better job
you call that blasphemy
I call it accountability
To Gd
Who is irresponsible
By giving you free will
While stripping you
Of the ability to use it in
Healthy positive and constructive ways
Effectively wreaking havoc
On this society
Causing suffering and shutting down
Innocent souls
Who spend their lives rebuilding
From the fallout chaos damage
But maybe I’m making excuses
Maybe I’ve been brainwashed
By all your cries of “Can’t” and “unable”
Maybe it’s actually “won’t” and “unwilling”
So maybe you actually deserve
Exactly what you get
But I don’t
And she doesn’t
And I don’t really see the point
Of all this unnecessary drama
When we have the building blocks
To create magic
The birthing process
Would not need to be so damn painful
If you simply chose
Not to make it so
