Messiah Complex

No I'm not being cocky in this song. Just trying to make a point. Think about the song title while you read this. If you don't know what it means, the definition is below in my review.

Being my life it is my choice,

And being my choice it is my will.

And I know the difference between right

and wrong.

We're arrogant fools with lifeless eyes,

We're in this together let no one deny:

That we judge each other.

We say harsh words while we look down long noses,

without looking inwards, how can we expose it?

But ourselves condemning.

[bridge]

Cuz it's my life and I'll do things my way.

Cuz it's my consequences for which I'll pay

He's worthless because he slashes his wrists

Says the the girl who ties it off, pumps her first, pokes a vein to inject

the poison, in her arm.

She's the school s**t cuz she fooled around once

And now a teen mom. Says the boy who brags he got it on

With 20 girls or so.

[Bridge]

How can you judge me, because I sin differently?

Hypocrisy is the worlds history.

[chorus]

Shut your mouth and get outta my way.

Look at yourself you have your own crimes to pay (for)

Fix yourself before you start judging me!

[musical interlude]

  

[same tune as chorus]

It's my life and I'll do things my way.

It's my consequences for which I'll pay.

Fix yourself before you start judging me!

[chorus]

Author's Note

Messiah Complex is the same as what's called the God Complex. It's a mental disorder where the person truly thinks that they are a literal God on Earth. That's just the Reader's Digest version. Look it up if you're interested. :]

"How can you judge me, because I sin differently?
Hypocrisy is the worlds history."
Just brilliant. We all have different, justified perceptions of the right way to live our lives, and in the end the whole experience of living is just about learning. If you're being true to yourself then what business is it of anyone else? I don't know if this is what you're saying, but that's what the line I've quoted says to me.

[Walker Andreasen]

That is exactly what I was trying to say with this song! I hope you liked it!

[Fred]

Oh I do indeedy. :)

[Walker Andreasen]

excellent :]

[TrinityHawk]

I like the topic of this one. Being a mix between Native Religion and Buddhist, I believe strongly in not judging others for we are judged upon our hearts and the deeds we do for others when we cross over to the next plain of existence.

There are so many lines in this poem that I went back and read again because they were so beautiful. One of my favorites so far of your work.

[Walker Andreasen]

Well thank you I'm glad you enjoyed it!

[Pax]

i really like the song. it tells everyone's struggles in life

[lee von cleef]

Life without "collateral consequences" Just a dream.

[Bats In The Belfry]

Your sin is showing...and your sin is bigger than my sin...I like this topic because it is so true...I believe God is going to judge us on how we love...thanks for bringing this to lite...cant wait to hear it oneday. Well done!

[Walker Andreasen]

Exactly! And I hope you will! Thank you!

[Coyote Poetry]

I like the logic of the poem. I agree we must not judge. Does not help. I like the flow of thoughts and the strong ending. Feel like music. Need some music. Thank you for the excellent poem.
