The universe exists because It doesn't exist during at least one period in the timeline.
Yes, we know that for a fact but doesn't make it the reason why. That logic is absurd because non-existence didn't exist some point in the timeline, and still doesn't exist.
So it doesn't exist because it didn't exist? Well you should stop existing.
Then who made God? If you say "But I refuse to believe that our Universe was just created out of what? From what? From where?" I could turn it right back around and say "Where did God come from? Did God come out of no where? From what?"
If God was truly a God, by any definition, then God would have no beginning. God was always there.
But the fact stands that the Universe had a beginning. And beginnings have a cause. Or would you rather believe the Universe created itself? I'd rather believe there is a God which created the universe.
And while thats a personal belief, I'd also rather not believe an infinite loop of existance. Say, God of this universe, God of God's universe, God of God's God universe. God of God's God's Universe. God of God's God's God's Universe. And if that chain had an end, would that be the real God? God is God, just like infinity plus infinity is infinity.
If things can be created out of nothing? Well then, why are we living such a shitty life? There shouldn't be the need to starve, need to buy your 90 inch TV, or the need be poor. Everyone could be happy with a million girls of their creation. Or do you live in a different world than I do?
And in a manner of sense, atheists have to believe either two things. 1. Belief that the Universe was created out of nothing, and thus things can be created out of nothing. Of no cause.
2. The universe had an infinite chain of creation.
Or, one could be atheist just because others are. Never really thought about it! And don't even want to.
And for further comments on your 'lyric'. It is from the perspective of an atheist, as you are an atheist. Agnostic at best.
A theist would not say 'Do you want people to stop believing in you (God)'? As such, faith as defined in the bible is belief without the need to prove in a worldly manner.
