A Soul To Bear

Man built god;
Dragged himself upon a pedestal
Kicked dirt in the faces of all other life
Crowned himself as deity

What animal separates this ape from that?
The human animal; ignored and loathed by louse and lion

Revel in our glory, in every brother is quarry
Butcher every life, until our land is stained and dead

From our towers we cry "every man shall bear a soul,
A right that no other beast shall bear"

And in the shadows the dogs shook their heads
"shame upon those apes, pride comes before a fall"
