Heretic's Hymn

They taught me silence was holy

They were wrong

I was raised on fear and forgiveness

Told to kneel, told to obey

They dressed control up as mercy

Called my hunger a sin to pray away

Tongues of gold, hands of thieves

Selling shame like sacred truth

They carved commandments into flesh

Then blamed the wounds on you

Every question was a crime

Every doubt a loaded gun

If truth lives outside your walls

Then your god's already done

This is the heretic's hymn

Sung by the fucked and the free

I tore the halo from my throat

And learned to fucking breathe

Burn this fucking church to the ground

Let the ashes speak my name

If faith demands my silence

I'll desecrate the flame

You preached love with clenched fists

Purity with bloodied hands

You needed sinners just to live

So you built a god who condemns

You fear a woman who won't bow

Who won't repent for being whole

So you call her cursed, call her vile

While you rot behind the role

You don't fear hell, you fear revolt

You don't worship truth, you worship guilt

Your heaven's just a padded cell

For minds you fucking broke and rebuilt

This is the heretic's hymn

Sung by the fucked and the free

I tore the halo from my throat

And learned to fucking breathe

Burn this fucking church to the ground

Let the ashes speak my name

If faith demands my silence

I'll desecrate the flame

I watched your temples eat the desperate

Feed on grief, then call it grace

Built empires out of broken backs

While preaching love with a loaded face

You taught me shame before my name

Taught me fear before my spine

Now I wear every scar you gave me

Like proof i fucking survived

You called it grace
