quid pro quo

There's one you blindly follow
There's one that tell you you're hollow
One that makes you feel protected
One that tears you apart
Belief, Faith, God and Religion.
The ones that were made to maintain order and peace are the ones provoking war
Is it Religion?
Is it Government?
Order and Chaos
Friend and Foe
Boon and Bane
all nothing but a quid pro quo.
Bleating like sheep
No questioning the higher power they say
Soldiers, we are not
Devotees, with a forced Vision through the spout of a teapot
Promises to open the top
leap forward and hop
Promise, the creators
Fancy term for controllers
Humanity's peace came from religion
Nothing is imbalanced, hence the evil came too.
Controllers through books,
fictional maybe, yet functional
Mythology and Legislature
Judicial and Executive
all a quid pro quo.
