SF Soundtrack: Heaven – Brett Dennen

I wouldn’t call it an anti-theistic song. I wouldn’t call it anti-Christian, or anti-Muslim, or anti-anything besides hate, exclusivity, and prejudice. A strong request for compassion:

Beyond the rules of religion
The cloth of conviction
Above all the competition
Where fact and fiction meet

There’s no color lines or casts or classes
There is no fooling the masses
Whatever faith you practice
Whatever you believe

Heaven, Heaven.
What the hell is heaven?
Is there a home for the homeless?
Is there hope for the hopeless?

Something to think about.

With hope,

Chris
