Blasphemy
 
Ever feel like God stabs you in the back at every chance?/
The system's failing us, how is the underclass to advance?/
Praying like a motherfucker won't help my social stance/
This perverse blasphemy will have me seared by a religious lance/
But fuck it/
'Cos God takes a hit at every available chance.

I resort to blasphemy/
Ask 'will life last for me?'/
Has the man upstairs really got my back for me?/
'Cos it feels like I've been dealt a raw card nastily/
Look around on my block and peep the single mothers on drugs/
They call these estates 'sinks' so why won't God pull the plugs?/
Where I live, they're tired of the social pushes and shoves/
They can't recognise indoctrination, treated like fuckin' mugs/
God must have aided the recent amnesty upon slugs/
But why not show some love in the form of spiritual hugs?/
Hebrew Jesus is portrayed as a pale man, it's all fucking lies/
Like Gza said, religion doesn't do shit but divide/
Protestantism plus Calvinism equals Capitalism/
Religion is the opium of the masses, fuck God's wisdom/
I wake up your mind and inform that religious texts are metaphorical/
Don't take words as face value - the figures they allude to are allegorical/
Meaning they serve a different purpose on a superior level/
Draw parallels between society and the historical lure of 'Devil'/
Madonna kissing a black saint was propostrous and blasphemous/
Impose racial barriers and imply their crossing as disastrous/
Indications of free speech provoke fucking moral panic/
Speak your mind and religious leaders will picket in unison to ban it/
I only need 12 bars to drop on a truthful note to listeners/
Faith's fairy tales hold the masses as religious prisoners.

I resort to blasphemy/
Ask 'will life last for me?'/
Has the man upstairs really got my vertebrae?/
If he had, my peeps would still be here today/
Not many actually dead, but they're mentally fucked/
And when I ask 'em why they blame mere bad luck/
As if oppression was the only single prospect available/
Religion states that through hard work dreams are attainable/
But fail to provide solace during the occupation situation/
It's about time God made a class discrepancy revelation/
Instead of branding us burdens, provide us with some elevation/
Tired of reading of the expenditure of Politicians' vacations/
Up in these ends, "educated labourer" is a fucking oxymoron/
They don't even teach the meaning of that word where I hail from/
They shut down 2 schools, left the pupils lost and disrespected/
Every 4 years Blair pulls a sweet turn and gets re-elected/
Labour is our Party, the policies remain irrespective/
Read between the fuckin' lines before becoming subjected/
Your cross in the box determines whether you're comatose or awake/
I won't abandon my roots to become an Americanised state/
Bully Bush is bloodthirsty and Bitch Blair is sycophantic/
Like L said, the "U.S Dream" is really non-romantic/
I only need 12 bars to drop on a truthful note to listeners/
Promises and lies hold the masses as political prisoners.

...thanks for reading...
