Demand An Explanation Lyrics
(Verse 1)
Lately I've been living gone as a lost soul
Questioning religion while I'm entering the cross roads
Maybe I should join, maybe I should get involved
Maybe I just need a God, lately I've been living lost
Where do I begin selecting a path?
I don't know where to start, I got so many questions to ask
Why have their been so many different versions of our religions
What's the reason we're here? What's the purpose of our existence?
Is our belief in you what actually matters?
Are these Bible stories accurate as factual chapters?
Do you control catastrophes attacking the ma**es?
Are you responsible for tragedies and natural disasters?
Are these religious beliefs never to be questioned?
Do we have free will or is everything predestined?
I'm tryna seek the truth and find the answers of creation
Cause we don't know enough and I Demand An Explanation
(Verse 2)
Lately I'm unsure of what to believe
Cause all I see is insanity and consumption of thieves
All I see on this planet is the destruction of trees
All I see in humanity is corruption and greed
I see the poverty, the slavery, and misery
I see the pain, hate, and anger in our history
I see the maintained dangers and conspiracies
So honestly could you blame me for all my disbelief?
I want it figured out, enough lies I want the truth
I'm just tryna see it from an unbiased point of view
I gotta question the position I was placed in
I'm not just gonna believe the religion I was raised in
Cause there's too many other views to be sure
And there's too many unanswered questions we choose to ignore
Damn, I'm tryna seek the truth and find the answers of creation
Cause we don't know enough and I Demand An Explanation
(Verse 3)
Lately I've been regretting all my decisions
Second-guessing religions and questioning our existence
Is it religion or science? I need a resolution
But it's hard to choose with evidence of evolution
Our Father's what they teach us in the testaments
But if God's a higher power, shouldn't he be genderless?
Religion's supposed to guide people to the light
But it seems like it just divides more than it unites
Cause battles have been fought and there's violence over religions
If that's the case then people are dying over opinions
Are all these Bible verses filled with lies denied in churches?
Is it just survival urges? Can we serve a higher purpose?
Is there an afterlife filled with love and paradise?
Or do we decay in soil eaten by the parasites?
Why is Jesus white? How'd a virgin birth his life?
Can I change the things that aren't right and is it worth the fight?
Maybe I've been lost, maybe I'm just innocent
Maybe I'm the one who's wrong, maybe I'm just ignorant
Maybe I need your guidance so you can take control
And if so then lord take my soul and fill these vacant holes
