NOTHING ABOVE THE QUESTION [Intro] Keep your answers. I brought questions. [Verse 1 — Rhythmic] They handed me a rulebook, Told me never look outside. Said doubt was born from weakness And obedience was light. But every locked conclusion Had a frightened little key: “Do not test the sacred answer. Do not think independently.” I tore the warning label off. I looked behind the screen. Found ordinary people Selling certainty as clean. [Pre-Chorus] If your truth requires blindness, Then your truth can’t stand inspection. There is no throne, no book, no god— [Chorus] Nothing above the question. Nothing beyond review. No prophet gets exemption From proving what is true. No master of creation, No sacred institution. If better facts destroy my faith— Then bring the demolition. Nothing above the question. Nothing beneath our doubt. If truth is really truth, It doesn’t fear being found out. [Verse 2 — Rhythmic] I can feel the ancient wonder Without kneeling to a name. I can walk into the darkness Without calling darkness shame. I can look into the cosmos, Feel the terror and the grace, Without inventing someone Just to fill the empty space. Don’t mistake imagination For a witness or a fact. A beautiful sensation Doesn’t prove what caused the act. But mystery still matters. Awe still rattles through my chest. I simply won’t call guessing An unquestionable truth. [Pre-Chorus] Every claim must face the fire. Every doctrine, every lesson. There is no final authority— [Chorus] Nothing above the question. Nothing beyond review. No prophet gets exemption From proving what is true. No master of creation, No sacred institution. If better facts destroy my faith— Then bring the demolition. Nothing above the question. Nothing beneath our doubt. If truth is really truth, It doesn’t fear being found out. [Bridge — Half-Time] My beliefs are written lightly. My convictions breathe and bend. Every answer is a doorway, Not a place where thinking ends. Call me skeptic. Call me mystic. Call me faithless. Call me free. I would rather face uncertainty Than worship certainty. [Final Chorus] Nothing above the question. Nothing beyond review. I’ll follow any answer That survives what we put it through. No master of perception. No permanent conclusion. When better knowledge finds me— I welcome the intrusion. Nothing above the question. Let every locked mind out. If truth is really truth— It doesn’t fear our doubt.
