Felt like posting up another song. Please tell me any problems with it, lol.

The Rise and Fall of the Under God


Put down your hand
If you don't know the answer
If you don't know the question
How could you know the solution?
There's a new kid in class today
Could some of you help her find her way?
They call her wisdom
We should listen to what she has to say

*They open their mouths
And swallow the lies they're fed
Open up your books to page forty-two
What a pretty color red
The blood of our forefathers!
Who fought to make us free!
They'd weep now if they could see
All our morals which now lay dead

If you fold your hands together
And you whisper a prayer
You're forcing beliefs on another
Well now I ask the question
If you force us to be silent
When we don't want to be quiet
Is that not called 'forcing belief'?
One nation under God is slowly dying*

What's that on the chalkboard
Is it something I already know
Or do I need to really learn?*

I'm so sick of all these lies
Children believe what you know in your hearts
If there were no God in heaven
Your life would long since been ripped apart
Pray to God! Ignore your doubts!
Fall on your knees and pray for restoration
We need it, God, we need it now*
