Could if be?
The land that divides us divided us
In the name of religion
Castigation is made holy
Ominous treads made sacred
Efface of a culture becomes endorsed by the blood of a prophet

A city in the name of God
Yet war, treachery, emnity,
Obtruted by those who need to be sanctified
Sanctioned by blind wasted time
Your sanctimonious ways a perfidious act upon the Holy
For the world to sanctify

What are we fighting for?
Could if be that we are merely self-fulfilling prophecy
Is this our freedom...
