I Ain't Afraid

I AIN’T AFRAID

I ain’t afraid of your Yahweh

I ain’t afraid of your Allah

I ain’t afraid of your Jesus

I’m afraid of what you do in the name of your God

I ain’t afraid of your churches

I ain’t afraid of your temples

I ain’t afraid of your praying

I’m afraid of what you do in the name of your God

Rise up to your higher power

Free up from fear, it will devour

Watch out for the ego of the hour

The ones who say they know it

And the ones who will impose it on you

Rise up, find a higher story

Free up from the gods of war and glory

Watch out for the threats of purgatory

The spirit of the wind won’t make

A killing off of sin and satan

Repeat verse one
