People think being close to God is a wonderful
thing
People think being close to God is heaven
But I live on earth
And sometimes being close to God only makes
you feel the pain
that much more
What experience in life brings one close to
God?
The answer is 'death'
Isn't death life's most painful experience?
The one we all dread and struggle to avoid?
Death means separation from the ones we love
No contact with the things we love
It is an unknown experience we must endure in isolation
It means an end to all that is good in life
And all that we know as life itself
But this is not just caused by death
These are the demands of God
Ask any monk, saint, or nun
God demands the destruction of everything human
And so I live this life
Alive, a human close to God
But not really human because God will not allow my humanity
People think being close to God is a wonderful
thing
But this God is a selfish god
People think being close to God is heaven
Let them look into my eyes
1999 - Caeser Pink
