Make your own martyr
Forge Your Faith: Unveiling the Dark Side of Martyrdom
Lyrics
Parishes who spread the good word on earth about heaven
Religious communities spreading messages about heaven on earth
To keep their power are ready to burn to stone the innocents
Willing to harm innocent people to maintain their power
In the name of Holiness
Justifying harmful actions in the name of holiness
Martyrs creat faith more than faith creates martyrs
Martyrs contribute to the creation of faith more than faith creates martyrs
Every dawn, forced to carry their cross
Forced to endure challenges symbolized by carrying a cross daily
You're falling from some broken wings
Facing difficulties represented by falling from broken wings
Keep your head up, join your hands to the sky
Encouragement to stay resilient and connected to the divine
Beyond the clouds lead by the stars
Seeking spiritual guidance beyond worldly troubles
I won't let my grave be your cross
Refusing to be a burden or source of suffering for others
I won't let my hate be your glory
Rejecting the idea of personal hatred becoming someone else's glory
Nothing but pain, and no one to blame
Embracing pain without assigning blame
Make your own martyr, leave me alone
Rejecting the role of being a martyr, seeking to be left alone
They just want you to cry
Others want to see one's vulnerability and tears
To show to followers that for your faith you will face the death
Pressure to face death to prove faith to followers
Does your god need thoses sacrifices?
Questioning the necessity of sacrifices for God
Does he care about you?
Questioning if God truly cares about individuals
Am i a sheep in desguise?
Wondering if one is blindly following without awareness
Every dusk, they bless the insiders
Rituals at dusk benefiting those on the inside
Be strong, just walk to the light
Encouragement to move towards enlightenment
You are their puppet, they are pulling the strings
Being manipulated by religious leaders
Waiting for your death to feign indignation
Awaiting one's death for a feigned display of grief
I cannot wait
Impatience for an anticipated event
I won't let my grave be your cross
Reiteration of refusing to be a source of burden for others after death
I won't let my hate be your glory
Reiterating the rejection of personal hatred becoming someone else's glory
Nothing but pain, and no one to blame
Acknowledging pain with no specific blame assigned
Make your own martyr, leave me alone
Reiterating the desire for others to create their own martyrs and be left alone
