the gospel of satan (with song "Imagine Satan")

"Imagine Satan"

Imagine there's no heaven
No kingdom in the skies
No threats of hell beneath us
No need for sacred lies

Imagine all the people
Living by their own minds

Imagine no commandments
Just values we define
No masters in high places
No guilt to cloud our time

Imagine all the people
Choosing what is right

You may say I’m a heathen
But I’m not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And see we're causing harm to none

Imagine self-compassion
And justice every day
Respecting all perspectives
Letting reason lead the way

Imagine all the people
Fighting for the free

You may say I’m rebellious
But we only seek what's fair
With empathy and knowledge
A better world we dare
