Haddon, Deitrick - Heaven Knows Lyrics

The homeless is still homeless, the poor is still poor
Yet we find billions of dollars to fund senseless wars
And yes, we're fighting terrorism, what about the quiet racism?
Divided among ourselves, somebody's crying for help

Heaven is listening
(Listening)
Heaven is watching
(Watching)
Heaven knows
(Knows)

And they may not play this on the radio
'Cause the devil don't want you to know
If we don't stop the hypocrisy
The nation will lose it's soul

They'd rather play music about money and sex
Like we don't have no intellect
Somebody need to show some respect
'Cause God ain't through with us yet

Heaven is listening
(Listening)
Heaven is watching
(Watching)
Heaven knows
(Knows)

Heaven knows, heaven knows the preachers that's not preachin'
(Heaven knows)
And heaven knows the teachers that's not teachin'
(Knows)
Heaven knows the politicians that's stealing
Heaven knows, heaven knows the ones that are out there killing

Oh, heaven knows that the world needs a revival
(Heaven knows)
That we've walked away from the Bible
(Knows)
Heaven knows that the world needs healing
(Heaven knows)
That somewhere we've lost our feelin'

Heaven is listening
(Listening)
Heaven is watching
(Watching)
Heaven knows
(Knows)

Heaven is listening
(Listening)
Heaven is watching
(Watching)
Heaven knows
(Knows)

Heaven is listening
Heaven is watching
Heaven knows

The homeless is still homeless, the poor is still poor
Yet we find billions of dollars to fund senseless wars
And yes, we're fighting terrorism, what about the quiet racism?
