Replace old memories with new ones.

They’ve shoved lies down my throat,
trying to make me believe.
They want me to hear them gloat,
but approaches the Revolution’s Eve.
Not aware of what they have created,
a beast they have made out of me.
All their life they have been hated,
only trying to get me to agree.
I will take back my pride,
and justice will be redeemed.
No longer must I hide,
and I will destroy everything they have dreamed.
This artificial evolution was unsuccessful,
because I have become just too stressful.

The author's comments:
I wrote this when I was developing my decision to openly delcare my pride of being an Atheist. Christians kept constantly pushing me and trying to "convert" me, but I refused to listen to their beliefs. Today I am more respectful to Christianity, but I have the same level of tolerance for their attempts to "convert" me despite my many declarations of Atheism. If you are a Christian I apologize if I offend you, but I am merely expressing my frustration and intolerance.
