Why do I exist?
For what reason am I here on this God forsaken planet
Which scriptures of the world am I to believe?
The ancient dead religions of Babylon?

Why do I exist?
For what reason am I here on this God forsaken planet
Which scriptures of the world am I to believe?
The ancient dead religions of Babylon?
In one Higher Self
I do believe in
Many on this earth
Believe in many heinous idol gods
That bleed
In a world of confusion
Primeval evil dwells amongst us
They make countless civilizations
Come to dark hellish conclusions
That money is the highest institution
They make societies hungry for material goods
And make them perish innocent souls
For little shiny stones
And liquid black gold
They make governments steal from the poor
It’s the most valued commandant
In their diabolical creed
Many powerful nations sprung up
From their toxic greed
At odd hours of the night
They gather together by the creek
They chant incantations
And dance around a brimstone fire
And worship the wicked beast
Divine Heavenly Judge
Have mercy on me
For this world has soiled me
And corrupted my needs
I want to release my inner being from this sordid planet
Dear Lord
Forgive me for my sins
As I lay here in this closed casket
For I am only a mere mortal
Please open the gateway
To your heavenly portal
That my atman may ascend
And merge with the Soul of the Universe
That I may became an Immortal
I don’t know why I’m here
One question I want to ask You, Celestial Father
Why do I exist?
Being in this devilish world brings me to tears

No mere mortal has the answers Jack. If you did then that will make you God.

I was referring to God - in His Word the answers are found.
