Modern Day Prophets

The narrow way's evil; the wide is Holy.

I sit and cry in great disdain 
At the way men speak of God in vain. 
The lies they spew from the pulpit so sweet, 
Deceiving each and every feeble sheep.

Modern times are like the days of old 
Right before Noah was told: 
Build the ark, and prepare; 
A day of wrath the world will bear.

Modern day prophets speak in lies 
Deceiving sheep with words they imply; 
The people sadly refuse to read 
To find the truth, accepting deceit.

The preacher plays with their souls, 
Condemning them to a life unknown; 
Torture and pain will embrace their days 
As the false teachers preach the insane.

These sleepless sheep of our modern day 
Live their lives in chaos and rage. 
They rebuke the truth for the lies they love, 
In order to justify their earthly lusts.
