Dan Le Sac - Letter from God to Man lyrics

Hey There, how, how's it going? Long time no see I know I haven't been around much lately But… it didn't seem like you wanted me to be The last time I sent down a message You nailed it to the cross So I figured I'd just leave you to it Let you be your own boss But I've been keeping an eye on you, I have And it's amazing how you've grown With your technological advances And the problems you've overthrown And all the beautiful art you've created With such grace and such finesse But I admit there are a few things I'm afraid Have impressed me less So I'm writing to apologize For all the horrors committed in my name Although it was never what I intended I feel I should take my share of the blame All the good I tried to do was corrupted When organized religion got into full swing What I thought were quite clear messages Were taken to unusual extremes My teachings taken out of context To meet the agendas of others Interpretations taken to many different ways And hidden meanings discovered Religion became a tool For the weak to control the strong With all these new morals and ethics Survival of the fittest was gone No longer could the biggest man Simply take whatever he needed Cause damnation was the price If certain rules were not heeded Some of the deeds committed in my name Made me wonder where I went wrong Back at the start when I created this The foundation seemed so strong See all the elements were already here Long before I began I just kind of put it all together I didn't really think out a long-term plan I made the sun an appropriate distance And laid the stars across the sky So you could navigate the globe Or simply watch the sun rise I covered the earth with plants and fruits Some for sustenance and some for beauty I made the sun shine and the clouds rain So their maintenance wasn't your duty I tried to give each creature its own attributes Without making them enveloped I gave you all you all your own space to grow And in your own way space to develop I didn't know such development Would cause rifts and jealousy Cause you to war against each other And leave marks on this planet indelibly You see, I wasn't really the creator I was more the curator of nature And I want to set things straight with h*mos**uals right now: I don't hate ya I was a simple being That happened to be the first to yield such powers I just laid the ground It was you that built the towers It was you that invented bombs And the fear that comes with them And it was you that invented money And the corrupt economic systems You invented terms like "just war" And terms like "friendly fire" And it was you that didn't know when to stop digging deeper When to stop building higher It was you that exhausted the resources I carefully laid out on this earth And it was you that even saw these problems coming But accredited them little worth It was you that used my teachings For your own personal gain And it was You that committed such tragedies Even if they were in my name So I apologize for any mistakes I made And when my words misconstrued But this apology's to Mother Nature Cause I created you Everything is broken Everyone is Everything Everyone
