Name: You're Not My God
Duration: P00H03M08S
Description: I think the christian church is obsessed power, money and control. It has allowed the west to be dominated by capitalism, greed and poverty as its had its nose in the same trough. This church is indeed 'not my God'. Its also about the book Midnight Library which to me says if we have many lives to learn different things then it negates the idea of God.

about

I think the christian church is obsessed power, money and control. It has allowed the west to be dominated by capitalism, greed and poverty as its had its nose in the same trough. This church is indeed 'not my God'. Its also about the book Midnight Library which to me says if we have many lives to learn different things then it negates the idea of God.

lyrics

Confusing world
Fast moving clouds
Flags for the children
Guns for the crowd

Is this the world where I have no mercy?
Or the one where I am the Black Dog?
Is this the world where I am cannon fodder?
Or the one where I am your God?

YOURE NOT MY GOD
YOURE NOT MY GOD
YOURE NOT MY GOD

Our Father
They raised gallows in your name
If there be a million kingdoms
There are none below your heavens
Give us this day our daily dread
And tell of the righteousness of war
Against those that trespass against us
Control us with redemption
And deliver us from free-will
Forever
and never
Amen

Confusing world
Dearly beloved we’re the dealers in shame
Fast moving clouds
I cannot see you so I don’t believe you
Flags for the children
The pulpits having trouble with the system P.A.
Guns for the crown
The Evil. The gracious. Imposters the same

YOURE NOT MY GOD
YOURE NOT MY GOD
YOURE NOT MY GOD

Is this the world where I have no mercy?
Or the one where I am the Black Dog?
Is this the world where I am cannon fodder?
Or the one where I am your God?

YOURE NOT MY GOD
YOURE NOT MY GOD
YOURE NOT MY GOD
