Questions?ยฟ
Another Tuesday to share three tunes, in this lovely community ๐.
Although today's tunes would actually be on a bit of a touchy side so I'll have to ask that if you're one to easily pick offense you might want to skip this one outโจ.
My post theme today is one that would easily be a food for thought...
The Questions

Questions about what?
Some may ask...
Well, my dear reader, these are songs that question the one thing that alot of people question all together.
God...
Now I know this is a rather gray area for most folk, so I have to state my claim now that I am a believer, or at least I think I am ๐๐
I guess that's kind of a gray area for me too..
Anyways....
These aren't songs that go straight to proclaiming the wonders and love and all the great things God is about.
These are songs that rather tend to question the things about God, surely everyone has had a battle with faith, wondering why it has to be like this.
Why believe a scripture from the bible or Qur'an when we weren't there ourselves to see the validity of it.
Religion is one topic that is almost always trending in the world.
The philosophy of a spiritual being in charge of all humans is an endless pool of emotions, which when drawn upon, brings up great songs.
Today's 3 tunes would be from a rapper that has always had a flair for singing and talking about such topics. His songs always convey so much emotion, that you'll be forced to mull them over...
This
Is
DAX
Dear God
This tune is one which caused a whole lot of controversy and brought a lot of eyes on Dax.
A black African American that comes and starts throwing questions to God.
Wondering about the truth of the religion taught now. How to understand the real truth from the fake one.
It's a song that most people could relate to due to the actual confusion he showcased through with his words, although plenty could still pick offense in it.
I just see it as a confused man trying to look for some answers and so he writes to the one who knows all๐.
Book of Revelations
This song, as I see it is a sequel to Dear God (just my perception ๐).
In the song, Dax asks all the questions.
Every question, I think could be asked about religion is asked; The Why's, The What's, The Where's, The How's, it's all in here...
Does God Cry?
A song about the wonder of God.
Does God portray emotions?
Surely there are a lot of things to be sad, mad and happy about this world, if you're the one that makes it.
How would God react to worldly problems if he was with us as a man?
So I guess that's it from me, 3 songs that'll make you rethink, maybe draw you closer.
In reality the write-up before the tunes are just my thoughts while listening to the songs, trying to put what I felt in words after listening to the songs, the real treasure as always is in the song video's themselves ๐โค๏ธ๐ฅ
I'll have to tag our favorite musical gunner @ablaze who's team is taking an easy 3 points from Chelsea at the point of writing... (3-0 first half..., Y'all really want that league trophy ๐๐๐), my second Irish pal @blanchy (How does 6th feel bruvv๐โจ)
It's been a lovely time writing for y'all, have fun in the remaining hours of #ttt

No worries about offending me anyway man!
Fair play to Dax for rapping about these themes and having an opinion and man does he pose some good questions in Dear God. The video and questions raised. Wow, profound...
I think you are right that the second tune is a sequel of sorts with a similar viewpoint. So many questions posed and no answers, nor rhetorical was questions, just loads to think about..
Dax is quite the question asker isn't he.. What's clear to me though is that his religion means a lot to him, but he has lots and lots of questions and is not afraid to ask them.
Really strong post man, good on ya.
Thanks man...
I think that's actually a good point on his part.
Most folks claiming Christians if asked this question, might fumble.
Overall everything is left to faith that what is being done is correct.
I guessed the question asked is
