Hello mister believer.

Hello my friend

Still believe in your sky friend?

Yes, to no end.

How do you believe in what your eyes can’t see?

Just because it’s what my eyes can’t see doesn’t mean it can’t be.

So you may, but me? I don’t think I could go that way.

Hey! to each his own, so that’s perfectly okay.

So you think you’ll see a day when your spirit will fly?

You think it won’t just because it’s not visible to the eye?

I’m just saying I believe in what’s evident in facts

Well you believe in evidence and facts, but I believe Heaven is a fact.

So how do we navigate these two lanes of mystery?

Easy. We don’t have to think the same we can just agree to disagree.
