lyrics:
I read about the ark, but wonder ‘bout where Noah kept the fish in
God must own a tempur-pedic, that’s why Christ has seldom risen
God was bored so Abraham beheld a vision he should kill his children then he almost killed him but then God was like I’m kidding
God sure asks a lot for someone who’s supreme and self-sufficient
I bet Christ’s apostles really were a group of twelve magicians
if God is good then why do kids have cancer cell division
truthfully, I’m more pissed off about my plasma television
that I prayed for but I never got,
if organized religion
really wants to solve conditions
they should stop peddling scripture,
trade the bishops for physicians, melt the steeples into stethoscopes, swap sermons for some surgeons and instead should sell prescriptions
I wish Christ was still alive to turn my water into Zinfandel
I’m confused why ISIS slaughters guiltless infidels
I wonder if when God is sent Fidel
he would toss him into hell or place the hard decisions
in his closet on a shelf
the Fall of Adam sucks and all as God has taught us very well
if God’s almighty why could not he just have caught him as fell
If I could meet the Lord incarnate I’d award him with a ribbon
not as savior, but as heaven’s finest warden of a prison
If I were there when Gutenberg had beta-printed newly minted
bibles, I’d say wait a minute, you should shorten them a smidgen,
and for nonbelievers, make sure God’s coordinates were given
I wonder if you sin but pray it off, if all of it’s forgiven
I feel like God knew Eve would take it if he called the fruit forbidden
but just plays it off, like jesus, dude, admit it, you’re omniscient
If Allah were on twitter he would catch some major flack
I like to think if you retweeted, he would pat you on the back
I like to think he outlawed bacon due to saturated fat
I like to think he too’s confused about the SNAFU in Iraq,
I like to think that up in Eden there’s a patch of purple grass
where every innocent civilian gets a statue and a plaque
The Palestine-Israeli conflict’s like the longest game of tag,
and with the bombers, it’s the wrongest game of capturing the flag,
I wonder if the lord is cross that I do not believe in he
but more importantly, I wonder if the lord believes in me

[@estreyawhitney2993]

I've always wanted to write a comment about this, but never knew where to put it. Samsa has to be my favorite artist, there's not a single song from him that I don't love. I constantly wonder what he's been doing with his life, but i understand him retiring from music. There's not a single doubt in my mind that he has continued to write music, if only I could read whatever he has written after he chose to stop releasing music. I hope he went on to do se brilliant things, and I don't think I could ever forget him or his music. My favorite song is Burfi, but this one, 22 thoughts, is the first song of his I listened to. I just hope his lost tracks keep getting found so it never really feels like he left (I never had SoundCloud, so I was first introduced to him through KZbin) there's always something new. These thoughts were giving me brain worms, so I just wanted to put them somewhere

Hey brother, I kinda love your empathy - it's a rare thing which is kinda disturbing. I'm south Asian too (born in Nepal, grew up in Ohio and now in Canada). Ohio was like hell for me - what a diseased capitalistic place it was, 15 or so years ago. Many people there were callous, cruel, and my good traits withered away and died. I grew up around a lot of materialistic people, including my own father. You seem like a cool person to talk to.
