Heaven
Rejected by Heaven: Unveiling the Struggle for Acceptance in Opiate for the Masses' 'Heaven'
Lyrics
Thank you so much for your confidence in me
Expressing gratitude for someone's confidence in the speaker
But you have been so wrong
Rejecting the accuracy of the person's judgment about the speaker
I have tried so hard to find your god in me for
Struggling to connect with the idea of a higher power or divinity within oneself
So long, so long, so long
Expressing the duration of the speaker's attempt to find this connection
I'm right here with you
Affirming the speaker's presence and willingness to be with someone
I'm at your service
Offering oneself for assistance or help
You told me NO!
Recalling a rejection or denial from the person being addressed
And so I don't deserve this
Feeling undeserving of the rejection received
I can't get to heaven
Expressing the inability to attain a state of bliss or contentment
Cause heaven's a place that don't want me
Suggesting that the concept of heaven is inaccessible or unwelcoming to the speaker
Point your finger and I'll pay attention
Indicating a willingness to pay attention or take responsibility when accused
What more do you want from me?
Questioning what more the person expects from the speaker
All you showed me was your thought prevention
Criticizing the other person for inhibiting the speaker's thoughts or ideas
And it has no harmony
Describing the lack of harmony or agreement in the relationship
I was there with you
Reiterating the speaker's past commitment and servitude
I was your servant
Affirming the role of being in service to the person addressed
You told me NO!
Recalling a previous rejection or denial from the person being addressed
And so I don't deserve this
Expressing a sense of undeservingness for the rejection
I can't get to heaven
Reiterating the speaker's inability to reach a heavenly state
Cause heaven's a place that don't want me
Suggesting that the concept of heaven is unwelcoming or unattainable
I can't get to heaven Cause heaven's a place
Repeating the idea that the speaker cannot reach heaven and may not desire it
That I don't wanna be
Expressing a lack of interest in being in a place like heaven
