I just want to make this clear |
| [00:04.18] |
I am a believer |
| [00:07.79] |
But sometimes it gets hard |
| [00:12.77] |
My name is Dax |
| [00:15.64] |
Dear God |
| [00:17.60] |
There’s a lot of questions that I have about the past |
| [00:19.66] |
And I don’t want hear it from a human you made |
| [00:21.68] |
So you’re the last person that I’m ever gonna ask |
| [00:23.75] |
Tell me what’s real, tell me what’s fake |
| [00:25.98] |
Why is everything about you a debate? |
| [00:27.88] |
What’s the point of love? |
| [00:29.02] |
Every time I’ve showed it I was broken |
| [00:30.63] |
And it’s forced me just to only wanna hate |
| [00:32.16] |
Why’s there only one you but multiple religions? |
| [00:34.16] |
Why does every conversation end in a division? |
| [00:36.19] |
Why does everybody want to tell us how to live |
| [00:38.03] |
But they won’t listen to the same damn message that they giving? |
| [00:40.36] |
Tell me how to feel, tell me what’s wrong |
| [00:42.39] |
I tried to call, pick up the phone |
| [00:44.29] |
I’m on my own |
| [00:45.28] |
Everybody says you’re coming back, |
| [00:46.82] |
Then man why the hell's it taking so long? |
| [00:48.60] |
Why do I hurt? |
| [00:49.51] |
Why is there pain? |
| [00:50.49] |
Why does everything good always have to change? |
| [00:52.56] |
Why does everybody try to profit off another man's work |
| [00:54.85] |
Then destroy it just for monetary gain? |
| [00:56.76] |
Tell me are you black or are you white? |
| [00:58.26] |
I don’t even really care I just really want to know what’s right |
| [01:00.60] |
They been saying one thing but I’ve been looking in the book |
| [01:02.76] |
And it seems like they’ve been lying for my whole damn life |
| [01:04.95] |
Tell me where I’m going |
| [01:05.98] |
Is it heaven or hell? |
| [01:07.46] |
I just hope this message greets you well |
| [01:08.86] |
I had a dream that I was walking with the devil |
| [01:10.52] |
Don’t remember how it feels but I swear that I remember the smell |
| [01:12.75] |
Looked me right into my eyes and told me everything |
| [01:14.78] |
I wanted could be mine if I gave up and decided to sell |
| [01:16.95] |
But I said I’d rather die then get mine |
| [01:18.62] |
Now I’m here no fear one man with a story to tell |
| [01:21.21] |
Dear God |
| [01:22.09] |
Where were you when I needed it? |
| [01:23.06] |
When I ****ed up and repeated it? |
| [01:24.38] |
When they set the bar and I exceeded it? |
| [01:26.09] |
My life is like a book that they’ve been judging by |
| [01:27.64] |
A cover but have never took the time to ****ing read the shit |
| [01:29.73] |
I remember telling you my goals and my dreams |
| [01:31.50] |
But you didn’t even answer |
| [01:32.40] |
So I guess you didn’t believe in it |
| [01:33.70] |
I remember sitting with a gun to my head trying to ask you |
| [01:36.12] |
For some help but I guess you didn’t believe in it! |
| [01:38.01] |
I don’t want religion I need that spirituality |
| [01:39.65] |
I don’t want a church I need people to call a family |
| [01:41.80] |
I don’t wanna tell my sins to another sinner just |
| [01:43.85] |
Because he’s got a robe and he went to some academy |
| [01:45.89] |
I don't wanna read it in a book, I wanna hear it from you |
| [01:48.13] |
Don’t wanna learn it in my school because they’re hiding the truth |
| [01:50.30] |
Don’t wanna talk about it to another ****ing human being |
| [01:52.45] |
And that's only reason that I even stepped in this booth |
| [01:54.61] |
Dear God |
| [01:55.45] |
How do I take this darkness and turn it into light? |
| [01:58.35] |
How do I believe in a concept where I speak to a man |
| [02:00.71] |
I’ve never seen with my own two eyes? |
| [02:02.39] |
How do I know that religion wasn’t made |
| [02:04.31] |
Just to separate the world and create a whole disguise |
| [02:06.46] |
Just to keep us in these chains while the rich get richer |
| [02:08.69] |
And the poor pray to you and perpetuate a lie? |
| [02:10.58] |
How do I know this ain't some big joke? |
| [02:12.48] |
How can I have faith when there is no hope? |
| [02:14.44] |
How the hell does one man have 100 billion dollars |
| [02:16.64] |
And we still have people on the street that are broke? |
| [02:18.80] |
There's a lot of things I wanna talk about and get off my chest |
| [02:21.09] |
I can’t sleep 'cause the devil won’t let me rest |
| [02:22.90] |
I used to know a ****ing pastor in a church |
| [02:24.79] |
And I can still hear the screams of the kids |
| [02:26.44] |
He would ****ing molest |
| [02:27.50] |
Dear God |
| [02:28.31] |
Do you hear me? |
| [02:30.57] |
I’m supposed to fear you but you ain’t said shit |
| [02:32.99] |
So maybe it's you who actually fears me? |
| [02:35.21] |
I don’t know the answer I just want to see it clearly |
| [02:37.28] |
So many lies there’s a 1000 different theories |
| [02:39.44] |
All I want to know is who really made religion |
| [02:41.32] |
Because I know it wasn’t you but don’t nobody believes me |
| [02:43.47] |
No more lies, no more death |
| [02:45.46] |
Bring back King, bring back X |
| [02:47.37] |
Please dear God let their souls rest |
| [02:49.45] |
Protect who’s left and watch their steps |
| [02:51.52] |
Dear God |
| [02:52.79] |
I don’t want to have to ask you again |
| [02:55.56] |
I just hope that you know that I’m still a believer |
| [02:57.98] |
So I’ll end this all by saying amen |
| [03:05.48] |
It's Dax |
