American Prayers I

from Succesion Species by Blight Future

lyrics

Dear God

Or whoever is in charge
(For I refuse to believe that there is no rudder to this forever sinking ship)
It’s on behalf of your white middle class that I reverently offer these
American Prayers:

If it must take us, may it be slowly in pieces
So we don't notice the parts of ourselves as we disappear
If it must hurt may the pain be constant so we feel gratitude it times of its brief absence

To remain in your privilege at any expense is your greatest gift
And I will serve without question
As a soldier to protect your unchecked expansion
You're heaven on earth

Amen
