You May Pray To Your God

You may pray to your God somewhere up there beyond the sky Where when you draw your last breath your soul to will fly But even for a soul with strong wings such a journey seems far You may struggle to get there from where you now are Yet some will even tell you that God you will find In every good person living in or her mind Your belief in an external God you does not guarantee Of a life after death existence in a heavenly kingdom it does seem to me But having said that i am a cynic a mere infidel And my kind never bound for to where angels dwell I am one who suffers of darkness of mind And perhaps i am an atheist or that way inclined If i said i believed in a life after death i would be telling a lie I was born a mere mortal and as a mere mortal i will die.
