imp (@theuncannyimp) - heaven lyrics

[intro: k!ller mike]
you know when your wife– as a man, when your wife looks at you and says to you, “i don’t know if god loves us”… i’d never heard anything that hopeless in a moment since i read a p-ssage from a holocaust survivor who questioned the validity or if god existed because of the conditions they were living under

[chorus: magic monroe]
some sp-ceships and stargates go nowhere
so run away from the whole idea
momma told me not to swear for god
well i said “where is heaven?

[verse 1: imp]
cautious reads, treading paper, beheading satans through the storm
steady cankers, three eds famous to the door
bearing gifts for a baby newborn in a barn
a score and a decade later he’d scorn your harm
baptised in a river, he spoke for the poor
flatlined friends arisen, gave hope to forlorn, right
i don’t believe it, don’t think he oversees us
hope our difference in faith doesn’t come between us
disbelief that a man so holy could come through
and make entire religion believe that your god would shun you
i was told my melanin was the curse of cain
i believed it false, but it still hurts the same
metanarratives held kept my ancestry in shackles
and parental guidance told me “read it to guide you”
but i read it to spite you, no reason to fight you
why would i ever endorse the overseer’s reason to bind you?

[chorus: magic monroe (imp)]
some sp-ceships and stargates go nowhere
so run away from the whole idea
momma told me not to swear for god
but i asked “where is heaven?”
(is it in the book, is that truth?)
where is heaven? where is heaven?
(is in the church? is that word?)
where is heaven?

[verse 2: imp]
cautious reads, treading papers, beheading herods through the storm
begging parish preists to pardon blameless sins that cause alarm
if there is no man or woman for we’re one in the lord
i’ll take carolingian bathrooms, rip the hinges from the door
transcending birth -ssignments need love, not a cure
not pretending, want an ending of the harm they endure
if chromosomes depict our spirit, jobs, and purpose
then maybe it’s outdated, acknowledgement isn’t worth it
so toss it, burn it, let self expression flourish
and forget the consequences of whoever you worship
the lines of ident-ty cut cross the demeans
if your religion oppresses, then you run a regime
metanarratives had bound my worth onto my genitals
and parental guidance told me “read it to better you”
i found fault in every muse, i pose in confession booth
“why would i ever endorse the overseer’s effort to pressure you?”

[chorus: magic monroe (imp)]
some sp-ceships and stargates go nowhere
so run away from the whole idea
momma told me not to swear for god
but i asked “where is heaven?”
(is it in the pastor? what comes after?)
where is heaven? where is heaven?
(is it in my t-thes for when i die?)
where is heaven?

[bridge: sample]
l’ultimo sogno era qui
un momento fa
la notte è fatta così
il giorno che verrà

[verse 3: imp]
cautious reads, treading papers, beheading judas through through the storm
petty cherubs celebrating hating enthusiasts, hooking arms
envision heavens intersecting where angels give blessings
to murders, heard there was fred phelps the first preachin’ irk and ruin
josh john ward eats white rice on the lawn
ron reagan and trap queen splice white with baptist john
bedford forrest rejoicing at a zimmerman glock, flash
forward to aum shinrikyo with sarin shock gas
i pleaded to saint peter, i thought love was christ like
and these are yours chosen to enter within god’s limelight?
you’re shutting the door, loving the hand that’s stunted the hordes
you’re loving the abhor, shunning the wh-r-, dear lord, i can’t live like this no more
metanarratives tied its reasons onto a fear of death
and parental guidance told me read the book or be left yet
but if these same people of faith made the correct cues to gain heaven
then barefoot i’ll walk h-ll where i’m accepted

[chorus: magic monroe (imp)]
some sp-ceships and stargates go nowhere
so run away from the whole idea
momma told me not to swear for god
but i asked “where is heaven?”
(is it tangible? is it anecdote?)
where is heaven? where is heaven?
(is it in your faith or is it fake?)
where is heaven?
