Taylor Leonhardt - If We Ever Get To Heaven

I know every generation
Says the world is getting worse
And we shudder in the shadow
Of the valley of the curse
Where the night is growing darker
And the earth is getting warm
And the heart gets harder
In the locust swarm

If we ever get to heaven
Whatcha gonna do?
I think it's too much singing
For a boy like you

There go the ten o' clock sirens
A couple howling wolves
Everybody keeps sighing
There goes the neighborhood
Where the deaths toll is climbing
And the sky is heating up
And the heart gets harder
So it don't get crushed

And if we ever get to heaven
Whatcha gonna say?
Jesus I reckon you slept in that day

How many doves you gonna slaughter?
How many graves we gonna dig?
How many thoughts and prayers will you offer
Before you admit
It was never about the children
When there's wars to be won
And there's ground to be gained
In the name of the holy kingdom of the gun

But if you ever get to heaven
Take a look around the place
God took your AK-47s
And he turned them into spades
And he's been planting some lilies
In the killing fields
While we're all still waiting
For our wounds to heal

If we ever get to heaven
If we ever get to heaven
If we ever get to heaven
