Music To Bolster Your Un-faith

Randy Newman - God's Song

 

Cain slew abel, seth knew not why

For if the children of israel were to multiply

Why must any of the children die?

So he asked the lord

And the lord said:

 

Man means nothing, he means less to me

Than the lowliest cactus flower

Or the humblest yucca tree

He chases round this desert

'cause he thinks that's where i'll be

That's why i love mankind

 

I recoil in horror fro the foulness of thee

From the squalor and the filth and the misery

How we laugh up here in heaven at the prayers you offer me

That's why i love mankind

 

The christians and the jews were having a jamboree

The buddhists and the hindus joined on satellite tv

They picked their four greatest priests

And they began to speak

They said, "lord, a plague is on the world

Lord, no man is free

The temples that we built to you

Have tumbled into the sea

Lord, if you won't take care of us

Won't you please, please let us be?"

And the lord said

And the lord said

 

I burn down your cities-how blind you must be

I take from you your children and you say how blessed are we

You all must be crazy to put your faith in me

That's why i love mankind

You really need me

That's why i love mankind

Heaven Shall Burn - Biogenesis (Undo Creation)

 

An overbearing dogma in disguise

Superstition displacing all reality

Debasing mother nature and dreaming of intelligent design

 

Let sanity prevail!

 

Adulterated doctrine,

So abstruse,

Beyond all reason

And apart from any evidence

 

Let sanity prevail!

Defending Darwin's throne

 

Idolizing supreme forces while trampling down creation

Unable to accept their unimportance, insignificance

Their insignificance

 

Prospecting vindication for existing misery

Scorn this indoctrination,

Pressed on by a profane confraternity

Shame for the summit of creation

 

Let sanity prevail!

Defending Darwin's throne

Where blind belief and science meet we're defending Darwin's throne

Deicide - Scars of the Crucifix

 

Impale the body, scares of his flesh, hung up to die on the crucifixion, bleeding to breathe, cursing at god...Why!!!!!!!

 

The glory resurrection; live in wounds of recollection,

Who take his will unreasoned, naivete inside soul defeated?

Lascivious redemption, justify thy vile absence,

Propagate his aggression as you use his words as weapons.

 

Lies now have you lost, the worthless cause of the crucifixion.

The sanctity, to hang and bleed, and in the form of a human cross.

Blind by prophecy, his bible fiend, a bloody sword of his fantasy.

Tried for heresy, and sacrilege, to bare the scars of the crucifix.

 

You walk alone with Jesus, in a world of non-believers,

Humiliated savior, Is thy son of heavens failure,

For ever left undone, on the cross for everyone,

His words of god unheard, he is dead and not concerned.

 

God fatality, the life recedes on the cross of his sign,

Finality, in search of peace, to beg and plead for the end that will be,

The light descends, when suffering, impaled again for your blasphemous lies.

Resented death, his sins confessed, accept the scars of the crucifix.

 

Sad in your sorrow, withered within, stand in the shadow of all of our sins, you are the son, choke on his blood...Die!!!!!!

I love Alanis Morissette's "Thank U" video for two reasons:

 

1. "Yes, I'm naked. Look, it's perfectly natural. It's not some naughty porno thing or gross-out bathroom thing. It's just the way we come into the world."

 

2. "And no, I don't have Carmen Electra's body. Who cares? This is me as I really am, and I'm beautiful."

Pretty much any music that makes me feel good without pushing religion. Basically, I believe that as long as I'm happy independent of religion, I'll have no emotional need to go back.

Vital Remains - Dechristianize (kinda specific...)

The most powerful part of the song:

 

He raped...the culture of mankind

He raped...the pride of the ancient ways

He raped...all thought of freewill

I who will watch you fall into obscurity

 

Washing away all filth of righteousness

The dimming of the light

Engulfing the fucking trinity

Dechristianize...Dechristianize...Dechristianize...Dechristianize...

Hell's grim tyrant...the eldest of night and chaos

Breathe once again...far from the shadow of god

This day of reckoning will be unavenged

Glory of wrathful inignation

I deny god and all religion

Turn up the whites of their eyes... Dechristianize...

Dechristianize

Iron Maiden - For The Greater Good of God

 

Pretty awesome song.

Here are the lyrics:

 

Are you a man of peace

Or a man of holy war

Too many sides to you

Don’t know which anymore

So many full of life

But also filled with pain

Don’t know just how many

Will live to breathe again

 

A life that’s made to breathe

Destruction or defense

A mind that’s vain corruption

Bad or good intent

A wolf in sheep’s clothing

Or saintly or sinner

Or some that would believe

A holy war winner

 

They fire off many shots

And many parting blows

Their actions beyond a reasoning

Only God would know

And as he lies in heaven

Or it could be in hell

I feel he’s somewhere here

Or looking from below

But I don’t know, I don’t know

 

Please tell me now what life is

Please tell me now what love is

Well tell me now what war is

Again tell me what life is

 

More pain and misery in the history of mankind

Sometimes it seems more like

The blind leading the blind

It brings upon us more famine, death and war

You know religion has a lot to answer for

 

Please tell me now what life is

Please tell me now what love is

Well tell me now what war is

Again tell me what life is

 

And as they search to find the bodies in the sand

They find its ashes that are

Scattered across the land

And as the spirits seem to whistle on the wind

A shot is fired somewhere another war begins

 

And all because of it you’d think

That we would learn

But still the body count the city fires burn

Somewhere there's someone dying

In a foreign land

Meanwhile the world is crying stupidity of man

Tell me why, tell me why

Also (for those who are into Thrash Metal, Hard Rock etc.) try some of Megadeth's older stuff.

 

Peace Sells

Holy Wars

 

Neither of the songs are THAT great but the lyrics make a point.

The The - The Violence of Truth

 

What is Evil? What is Love?

What is the force that possesess us?

Where is beauty? Where is the truth?

Where is the force that watches over you?

 

What is it that makes us ashamed to be white?

(when we close our ears to the sound of a machine gun)

 

And while the niggers of this world are starving with their mouths wide open!

What is it that turns the coins we throw at them into worthless little tokens?

 

Why is it, that anything on this Earth that we do not understand,

We are pushed onto our knees to worship or to damn?

 

THOSE ARE THE RULES OF RELIGION

THOSE ARE THE LAWS OF THE LAND

That's how the forces of darkness have surpressed the spirit of man.

 

That's why human beings still walk on all fours,

whilst in the presence of their so called...'superiors'!

 

Something's telling you, to wake up and salute.

The dangers of obedience and the violence of Truth!

 

GOD is Evil! GOD is Love!

GOD is the force that possesses us!

GOD is beauty! GOD is Truth!

GOD is the force that is watching over you!

Temple of the Dog - Wooden Jesus

Black Label Society - Doomsday Jesus (in my top 25 played iPod songs)

Metallica - Leper Messiah

Anthrax - Make Me Laugh (possibly the most anti-fundie song I've ever heard)

Anthrax - Superhero

 

Lyrics to "Make Me Laugh":

 

Make Me Laugh

 

Spread the word

Through me God is heard

You're making me laugh

Tell me your killin' joke

Evangelist

You're making me laugh

Jesus saves

But only after I've been paid

You're making me laugh

Tell me your killin' joke

Evangelist

End your hoax

 

God says have a T.V. show

God says baby do some blow

God says taxes are a sin

God says pour the money in

Rape the poor, faith no more

Faith for cash, make me laugh

Faith no more, face the whore

Rape your past, make me laugh

 

Never, never, ever sin

Unless God says to stick it in

You're making me laugh

Tell me your killin' joke

Evangelist

The truth can choke

Defrocked from your seat

Don't shit where you eat

You're making me laugh

Tell me your killin' joke

That God talks to you

There's no hope

 

God says have a T.V. show

God says baby do some blow

God says taxes are a sin

God says pour the money in

Rape the poor, faith no more

Faith for cash, make me laugh

Faith no more, face the whore

Rape your past, make me laugh

 

God says have a swimming pool

God say keep the doghouse cool

God says planes and boats and cars

God says have an amusement park

God says go and masturbate

God says file taxes late

God says paint your face all sick

God says be a real prick

God says have a T.V. show

God says baby do some blow

God says taxes are a sin

God says pour the money in

 

[CHORUS]

Any one ever listen to bright eyes? they make fun of Christianity in a lot of songs

 

lyrics for "Arc of Time"

 

You can make a plan

Carve it into stone

Like a feather falling

That is still unknown

 

Until the clock speaks up

Says it’s time to go

You can choose the high

Or the lower road

 

You might clench your fist

You might fork your tongue

As you curse or praise

All the things you’ve done

 

And the faders move

And the music dies

As we pass over

On the arc of time

 

So you’ll nurse your love

like a wounded dove

in the covered cage of night

Every star is crossed

by phrenetic thoughts

they separate and then collide

and they twist like sheets

‘til you fall asleep

and they finally unwind

it’s a black balloon,

it’s a dream you’ll soon

deny

 

I hear if you make friends

With Jesus Christ

You’ll get right up

From that chalk outline

 

And then you'll get dolled up

And you'll dress in white

All to take your place

In his chorus line

 

And then in you’ll come

With those marching drums

In a saintly compromise

No more whiskey slurs

No more blonde hair girls

For your whole eternal life

And you’ll do the dance

That was choreographed

At the very dawn of time

Singing “I told you son,

The day would come,

You would die, you die, you die, you die…”

 

To the deepest part

Of the human heart

The fear of death expands

‘til we crack the code,

we’ve always known

But could never understand

On a circuit board

We’ll soon be born

Again, again, again, again…

Music is a large part of my life. When I was a "believer" I was involved in the church (and associated Christian school) band and choir and have always had an ear for music. I am still very keen of music and have found plenty of music that encourages me in my religious and political convictions. Some music that I will post links to may be more politically motivated than anti-religiously motivated but that's due to my assumption that the majority of ex-Christians are more socially liberal than Christians ("One nation under God" for example). Feedback would be great.

 

NoFX -- "You're Wrong"

 

Pink Floyd - The Wall

 

Just about anything by Black Sabath.

 

AC/DC Rocks ass. Hell's Bells, Highway to Hell.

 

Manson Anti-christ Superstar, Personal Jesus.

 

Rob Zombie

 

We like to Rock! It pleases Crom.
