Dear God Lyrics
I just want to make this clear
I am a believer
But sometimes it gets hardMy name is Dax
Dear God
Dear God
There`s a lot of questions that I have about the past
And I don`t want hear it from a human you made
So you`re the last person that I`m ever gonna ask
Tell me what`s real, tell me what`s fake
Why is everything about you a debate?
What`s the point of love?
Every time I`ve showed it I was broken
And it`s forced me just to only wanna hate
Why`s there only one you but multiple religions?
Why does every conversation end in a division?
Why does everybody want to tell us how to live but they
Won`t listen to the same damn message that they giving?
Tell me how to feel, tell me what`s wrong
I tried to call, pick up the phone
I`m on my own
Everybody says you`re coming back
Then man why the hell`s it taking so long?
Why do I hurt? Why is there pain?
Why does everything good always have to change?
Why does everybody try to profit off another man`s
Work then destroy it just for monetary gain?
Tell me are you black or are you white?
I don`t even really care I just really want to know what`s right
They been saying one thing but I`ve been looking in the book
And it seems like they`ve been lying for my whole damn life
Tell me where I`m going, is it heaven or hell?
I just hope this message greats you well
I had a dream that I was walking with the devil
Don`t remember how it feels but I swear that I remember the smell
Looked me right into my eyes and told me everything
I wanted could be mine if I gave up and decided to sell
But I said I`d rather die then get mine now
I`m here no fear one man with a story to tell
Dear God
Where were you when I needed it?
When I fucked up and repeated it?
When they set the bar and I exceeded it?
My life is like a book that they`ve been judging by a
Cover but have never took the time to fucking read the shit
I remember telling you my goals and my dreams but you
Didn`t even answer so I guess you didn`t believe in it
I remember sitting with a gun to my head trying to ask
You for some help but I guess you didn`t believe in it!
I don`t want religion I need that spirituality
I don`t want a church I need people to call a family
I don`t wanna tell my sins to another sinner just
Because he`s got a robe and he went to some academy
I don`t wanna read it in a book, I wanna hear it from you
Don`t wanna learn it in a school because they`re hiding the truth
Don`t wanna talk about it to another fucking human being
And that`s only reason that I even stepped in this booth
Dear God

How do I take this darkness and turn it into light?
How do believe in a concept where I speak
To a man I`ve never seen with my own two eyes?
How do I know that religion wasn`t made just to separate the world
And create a whole disguise just to keep us in these chains while
The rich get richer and the poor pray to you and perpetuate a lie?
How do I know this ain`t some big joke?
How can I have faith when there is no hope?
How the hell does one man have 100 billion dollars
And we still have people on the street that are broke?
There`s a lot of things I wanna talk about and get off my chest
I can`t sleep `cause the devil won`t let me rest
I used to know a fucking pastor in a church and I can
Still hear the screams of the kids he would fucking molest
Dear God
Do you hear me?
I`m supposed to fear you but you ain`t said
Shit so maybe it`s you who actually fears me?
I don`t know the answer I just want to see it clearly
So many lies there`s a 1000 different theories
All I want to know is who really made religion
Because I know it wasn`t you but don`t nobody believes me
No more lies, no more death
Bring back King, bring back X
Please dear God let their souls rest
Protect who`s left and watch their steps
Dear God
I don`t want to have to ask you again
I just hope that you know that I`m still a believer so I`ll end this all
By saying Amen
It`s Dax
