Jealousy drives people 
towards 
stupidity.
Push aside 
common sense,
push aside
compassion,
push aside
faith,
push aside
religion.

Jealousy turns respected men
into mindless baboons.
Too focused on 
worldly matters.
Forgetting 
the most 
Supreme.

Yet, he hides.
He dares hide
behind
his faith,
behind 
his religion.

How some men
gain pleasure
from another
man's 
pain.
Another man's 
loss.
Another man's 
struggle.

Oh, how he dares.
Dares hide behind
his faith,
behind his
religion.

There will come
a time
when every rock 
will be overturned,
every hiding spot
discovered,
every piece of 
men, unveiled.
There will come 
a time when
men can
hide no
more.

Nothing 
to hide
behind.
Not a 
religion in 
the world.
Not even
a blind man's
faith.
