[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 ****
[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 a 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 ****
[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
