13 seconds. that's how long it takes to commit a sin.70 times. that's how many times the man upstairs will forgive you.
a lifetime. that's how long it takes humans to realize that none of that means shit.
Because in the end, what they want will always overcome what they need. They want that extra 5 dollars on they're pay check, and will do whatever it takes to get that. They want that girl who throws themselves at a married man. And they want to drink and take those drugs and get so shit faced they don't remember what happened.
That's the thing about humans, no matter how many times they are proved wrong, humans are selfish, they're needy, and they're sinful. It's in their blood. No one is meant to be perfect. If that was the case, big man wouldn't have allowed so many of them to be corrupted, damned, gone, however you choose to say it.
The world is full, of terrible, lonely, selfish, ugly people, ones who will inevitable find their way down south, serving the thing that is oh so preached down upon. Living in eternity in they're own little person hell, replaying every moment they wish they could have done differently, hoping one day to make it out of this- loop, of pain and suffering. But they never will. Occasionally, the bad ones; the really bad ones. Murders, rapists, child molesters- they'll get sent to the pit, they're ripped, torn, sliced apart till all that's left is a broken black soul. That's how demons come to be.
Now don't get me wrong, not everyone is damned and going to hell. There are those bible thumpers who will do whatever it takes it get into those bright shiny pearly gates up north. Follow every rule, commandment, and law they are told too. Walks around with the old mans foot up they're ass. There aren't statics as to how many of them make it up the heaven. Let's just say, it's not as much as you think. Trying so hard to follow a set of rules that even gods own children couldn't follow- well it's quite impossible. Along the way, people get lost, confused... corrupted, bippity boppity boo, they're down in hole.
"The devil will tempt you"
"He is the source of all evil"
"The one who does what is sinful is of the devil, because the devil has been sinning from the beginning."
That's where people start to get it wrong .
See i'm not the cause for all your wrong doings- i'm simply the one who makes you pay for them.
You see i'm blamed for everything bad that had ever happened. Which frankly pisses me off because i could care less about your petty earth problems. I'm busy running my kingdom. Now it's up to you wether you come and live in my kingdom.
But know if you're sent here, you will submit.
You will Bow Down.
