In Spite Of This Lyrics
i cannot, i will not support your lies, innocent organization the disguise, but in truth a business that feeds from the pockets of those seeking innocence. preaching words of hate, unfounded hate, and you remain in spite of this. integration of the lifestyles you wish kept from your lives, a belief for the people you see fit in your eyes. i will not be broken. you can not destoy me. why can't we accept diversity? immunity...

These lyrics are stating the flaws of organized religion. They basically accuse largely-favored-religions of disguising themselves with a offer to those seeking innocence (forgiveness, freedom from both guilt and consequence). So too do the lyrics point out the nature of these religions to be both narrow-minded and hateful.
More than likely this song is speaking in particularly of Christianity, in that in past times the religion has had been associated with violent groups such as the KKK, or the general mindset that if something is not as the bible states it should be, then it is immoral or unholy. Specifically the lines "integration of the lifestyles you wish kept from your lives, a belief for the people you see fit in your eyes," the lyrics can easily be alluded to Christian convert missions, the Holy Crusades, and also to the white Christian attitude during the Civil Rights era of The United States' history.
Finally, the writer ends by declaring his/her open defiance of this provincial mentality, and that acceptance of diversity is the key element to achieving "immunity," or, essentially, peace and prosperity.
