[00:00.46] (Intro)
[00:00.78] There's absolutely no trick to looking back on the great injustices of our time
[00:06.53] And condemning them, we understand that, we've got that
[00:10.08] The trick is always to look at what we're doing today
[00:13.60] As if we're at some point in the future looking back
[00:16.72] And figure out what the oppressions and the injustices are
[00:20.06] That we're committing today
[00:21.77] And to get them out of our lives
[00:24.66] (Chorus: Thea Alana)
[00:24.80] Heaven said no
[00:27.02] When you knocked out the door
[00:31.13] Your fire could kill a child and a mom
[00:35.56] Heaven said no
[00:37.73] When you pointed your gun
[00:42.21] Your face could make the joker wake up
[00:45.10] (Verse 1: Vinnie Paz)
[00:45.40] Do you have compassion for everything alive?
[00:47.73] Or animals don't matter to you, they can be deprived
[00:50.30] Animals are individuals and have feelings too
[00:53.40] They feel loneliness and happiness like people do
[00:56.33] 25 billion killed every year
[00:58.69] The average person culpable for 90 plus a year
[01:01.27] Overcrowded stalls, cages, and crates
[01:04.17] No sunlight, no grass under their feet
[01:06.79] They breathe, and they think, and they feel
[01:09.80] But we feast, and we drink, and we kill
[01:12.53] Factory farms inject stimulants and hormones
[01:15.08] They're fed other cows, they're fed hog bones
[01:17.95] Hundreds of thousands are poisoned and blinded
[01:20.43] To test cosmetics for the small, small minded
[01:23.20] The rain forests being destroyed to raise cattle
[01:25.82] Wildlife habitat became the battle
[01:28.68] They spray farms with herbicides and pesticides
[01:31.54] You know how much poison is in insecticides?
[01:34.22] The same chemicals destroy topsoil
[01:37.00] And leak into the ground and turn the ocean into oil
[01:39.73] Genetically manipulated to grow larger
[01:42.30] Only to be led to the slaughter
[01:45.44] I don't see it as being a conquest
[01:47.76] But people need to fight while there's still time left
[01:50.45] (Chorus: Thea Alana)
[01:50.67] Heaven said no
[01:54.32] When you knocked out the door
[01:58.54] Your fire could kill a child and a mom
[02:02.82] Heaven said no
[02:05.19] When you pointed your gun
[02:09.42] Your face could make the joker wake up
[02:12.28] (Verse 2: Vinnie Paz)
[02:12.54] Crash and combine the crates and tear them by the neck
[02:15.22] They can't move their bodies and they could starve to death
[02:18.00] They bang their heads from the psychological distress
[02:20.66] Hellish conditions, that's not what I would call respect
[02:23.38] Would you do that to your dog or your cat?
[02:25.70] Do you really see the difference in a frog or a rat?
[02:28.32] What's sacred to you here might not be sacred in Tibet
[02:31.29] So who are you to say what should be eaten or a pet
[02:34.12] It's a revolving door and it turn
[02:36.49] You can't differentiate between the moral concern
[02:39.73] An agitated pig might bite each other's tails
[02:42.30] So they hack it off at birth and then they lead it into hell
[02:45.17] Chicken beaks are seared off by farmers
[02:47.89] But they call it debeaking, I call it torture
[02:50.62] Boiled alive, you don't think it's karma?
[02:53.26] Money come before mercy, that's the mantra
[02:56.07] Cows give birth, their calfs are separated
[02:58.61] Factory workers are either scared or they're jaded
[03:01.37] The leather industry is tied to the meat industry
[03:04.24] Inextricably they're both responsible for misery
[03:06.87] A non-meat diet can slow the process of aging
[03:09.62] Avoid toxic food, contaminants, and enslavement
[03:12.26] Reduce global warming and end world hunger
[03:14.81] So think about it next time you sit down for supper
[03:17.94] (Chorus: Thea Alana)
[03:18.39] Heaven said no
[03:21.16] When you knocked out the door
[03:25.82] Your fire could kill a child and a mom
[03:30.10] Heaven said no
[03:32.27] When you pointed your gun
[03:36.71] Your face could make the joker wake up
