Letra de Dear God - Ren

Hello

Uh, it's Ren

I don't really know how to start this letter... Fuck it

Is this life really what it seems

'Cause lately I've been in this place between awake and dreams

I know I only reach out to you when I'm feeling blue

I promise I'm not using you, I'm just confused

I've got some questions I would like some answers to

Like is there meaning to this state of short existence

My existential thoughts sure hope there are, 'cause I'm resistant

To thinking that there won't be something better in the distance

And God, is there and afterlife where pain is non-existent

If you're up there God, do you sit upon the throne

Or are you a humble soul wearing sandals and tattered clothes?

Do you mingle with the people like an equal then on Sundays

Just kick back and chill and put your feet up?

Did I really choose this life that I'm living now?

Will my sins be forgiven if I speak them out?

I won't lie to you, God, if there is a heaven

I really hope I get there 'cause for real it sounds like heaven

Reading past the lines

I just let go

Searching for prophets, my faith, it is paper thin

So many questions in my mind

They replay like an echo

They never stop, my Messiah is porcelain

Dear God, why do people kill each other in your name?

Is it really what you want or have we lost our way?

'Cause it seems like religion can cause division

Or people living in prisons of moral values they're given

What is right and what is wrong?

Am I a sinner if I don't comply with everything that Moses said or is that dumb?

And why do people disguise hatred in your name?

Homophobia, a history of violent wars and causing pain

High priests in their towers stacking riches

Women burnt at the stakes called witches

In the name of God, Allah, Zeus, Jesus

People claiming lives justified by your allegiance

I think it's more complex than good versus evil

I think that there's both darkness and light inside people

Through different eyes a man called a terrorist

Could be a freedom fighter if he's fighting for the side you're with

Reading past the lines

I just let go

Searching for prophets, my faith, it is paper-thin

So many questions in my mind

They replay like an echo

They never stop, my Messiah is porcelain

So is it ignorant to claim that we know what you want

And if I fast for the Sabbath is that what you want?

Or is tradition, just superstition

Religion, a human vision just crafted out of people's ambition?

Listen, I knew a girl that lost her baby before it was born

What's the purpose of that, God, what is it for?

Why did my best friends die before I hit twenty-five?

Is it 'cause there's something better in the afterlife

God, I've been feeling suicidal lately

Mental health is worsening, feels like it might break me

If you're watching, you know that I've been strong

But, God, how much longer do I have to hold on?

Please, just give me some solace

So that I know you've got my back

Please, just give me some relief

God, is that too much to ask?
