[Verse 1]
Lennon sang "Imagine", few tried to envision
Life with no heaven, no hell, and no religion
Decisions would be made based upon compa**ion
Without any reward of life that's everlastin'
He wasn't askin' much, just to open your mind
Hopin you'll find you may be only towin' the line
For those that designed ways to keep you broken, confined
Invokin' divine words, what they're promotin's malign
Don't be devoted and blind to what has been embedded
You've been told your whole life, I'm sure it's hard to forget it
Reality's so poetic, reason, never reject it
Respect it, see the world as it is, you won't regret it
Give doctors their credit, medicine's not a miracle
It's science and dedication, no part of it's spiritual
If someone put fear in you about asking questions
Maybe it's just their own doubts that they're projectin'
[Hook]
Without angels, there'd be no less vividness
And people would realize some things are coincidence
Without devils, the world would still be the same
When people do wrong, they just can't shift the blame
No miracles, in ignorance, there's humility
Anything can happen, given probability
And without gods, it'd change the mentality
For so many, and how they engage reality
[Verse 2]
Postulate for a second, there's no source of evil
Just outcomes of bad choices from bad people
No Satan trying to deceive you, no fire and brimstone
No god up in the sky pushing Stockholm syndrome
Religion's a symptom of ignorance, lack of sciences
For the unexplainable, they invented appliances
But so much violence is done in the name of faith
I see why they needed it then, but it's time it was replaced
So much effort we waste on mental archeology
That could be used on society or technology
You owe an apology if you proselytized
But still, I'm not blaming you if you got lost in the lies
It's not easy to toss it aside, I'm sure it has to be arduous
But it's necessary to see just how marvelous
The world is, it's a part of us, feel the catharsis
As Mr. Sagan said, "We are made of star stuff"
[Hook]
Without angels, there'd be no less vividness
And people would realize some things are coincidence
Without devils, the world would still be the same
When people do wrong they just can't shift the blame
No miracles, in ignorance, there's humility
Anything can happen, given probability
And without gods, it'd change the mentality
For so many, and how they engage reality
[Verse 3]
If the only thing stopping you from being a parasite
Is the hope that one day you could live in paradise
Then that's a scary sight, you're more or less moral-less
In that case, your professed beliefs are probably for the best
But for the rest of h*mo sapiens, consider humanism
There's no true religion, they're all different superstitions
Choose a new position, this life is all we have to
Contribute to the world, feel love and laughter
And after this, all that's left of you is memories
That might make you consider how you use your energies
Too many entities are enemies to our betterment
Your life may have storms, but it's you that can weather it
No supernatural impediments, no spiritual crutches
Not in the hands of cherubim, nor in a demon's clutches
As much as it may comfort you or set your mind at ease
Think of how it must feel when you're finally free
[Hook]
Without angels, there'd be no less vividness
And people would realize some things are coincidence
Without devils, the world would still be the same
When people do wrong they just can't shift the blame
No miracles, in ignorance, there's humility
Anything can happen, given probability
And without gods, it'd change the mentality
For so many, and how they engage reality
