lyrics

God is not religion
it’s a means to show us hope
but God is just a concept you agree with or you don’t

Churches, Mosques and Temples
These prayers from me and you
Is this a house of worship? or is it just a room?

I’ve only seen divisions
and wars fought in it’s name
but God is not a country, nor a clergy, nor a place

It’s everything and nothing, in these moments we exist
maybe seeing God is redefining what that is.

Our beliefs are often given and rarely ever gained
by the things we’re shown as children
from the lineage of our names

Bursting with potential, this entire human race
but if we can’t live with each other,
then we don’t deserve this place

After all, we’re just mortal beings
and if we can’t learn from our past atrocities

we’ll just keep pushing these old ghosts into new homes
and pretend they haven’t been there before
imagine what this could be, free from all
divisions we don’t need anymore
