Heaven and Hell K Rino & Bro. Nuri Muhammad

"Heaven and Hell" by K-Rino

(Brother Nuri Muhammad)

The Honorable Elijah Muhammad said to us that Heaven and Hell were not places.
They were conditions.

You can have your Heaven or your Hell right here now while you on Earth.

You don't have to wait for a big day of judgement in the sky to either get Heaven or go to Hell.
You live today in the day of judgement.

Every decision that you make put you either closer to Heaven or closer to Hell.
Is that right?
Good decisions bring us closer to Heaven.
Bad decisions bring us closer to Hell.

(K-Rino)

Let's present the case, our whole life we've been faced...
With the false misconception that Heaven is a place
That exists beyond space,(where?) high up in the sky
And the spirits of the good go there after they die

But really, that lie has deceived us severely
'Cause it's clearly a few obvious holes in that theory
It's foolish, thinking each person I lost and loved dearly
And everyone up there can look down, see me, and hear me

The soul leaves the body so any form is spiritual
Yet every description given of Heaven is material
The gates that you enter, every story that's told
Speaks boldly of milk-and-honey and streets made of gold

Young, middle-aged to old, billions of passed souls
This one singular place is somehow able to hold
Generations have added new layers of information
Discrepancies exist on its actual location

Depicted visualizations, but no wheres or hows
If you ask someone 'Where is Heaven?', they'll point up to the clouds
But that concept is something that physics won't allow
If you don't know what I mean, I'll explain to you now

See the Earth been out in the Universe since it begun
And as it rotates, it also makes trips around the Sun
So if you stand up and point into space
Do it again in twelve hours, you'll be pointing to whole other place

The planet's moving so listen to this
What you thought was up is down now because the Earth's position is switched
The enemy tricked us and made us to bow
Told us we would have our Heaven later while he was enjoying his now

So the question that I'm posing is 'Why?'
If Heaven's better than where we are, how come nobody's rushing to die?
'Cause when you die, it's over, no life replacement to give
You resist gravity 'cause it's in your nature to live (yeah)

Where is Heaven? Where is Hell?
How many people you know have came back to tell?
For truth to come, you have to gain facts as well
The myth they told then is the same that prevails

(K-Rino)

When they teach about Hell, we've always learned
Of a place where the evil people eternally burn
But some people would argue with you greatly
That this place that we call Hell can't be worse than what they experience daily

The preacher used to run the sermon down
And expound on the never-ending flames that existed under the ground
We believed when they told us this place beneath the Earth is
Actually ten times hot as the Sun's surface

But this goes beyond logic's parameters
'Cause the Earth's approximately eight thousand miles in diameter
So how can ten times that much heat be in existence...
And not burn the planet from only half that distance?

The whole idea sparks many questions
Why would God let you burn forever off of a few years of transgressions?
They say that suicide is the truest way to go to Hell
And though many knew it, somehow they still do it

And no physically dead would be risen
'Cause like Heaven, Hell is a state of being you witness while livin'
And it won't be any bottomless pit to fall in
'Cause Lucifer's Satan and The Devil are all men

Many story lines vary
Some believe that people who died are gonna be raised up from the cemetery
Why would God resurrect all the wicked women and men...
Who supposed to be in Hell already and then judge them again?

You feed me falsehood and the purpose was to defect me
You read the scriptures, but you interpret it incorrectly
Concepts taught inaccurately (okay)
So for it to actually be, Science and Nature have to agree

"A baby's born into the world, you're in an emotional Heaven.
Someone that you love dies, you in emotional Hell.
Am I telling the truth?

If you have the ability to memorize everything you see, you in a mental Heaven
But if you're addicted to crack cocaine, you in a mental Hell

If you're handicapped, you could be in a physical Hell
But if you have full athletic ability, you can be in a physical Heaven

Heaven and Hell are NOT places.
They are conditions of life.

You been knowing it before a reverend messed you up.
You been knowing it before the theological seminary messed him up.
they been knowing it before the slave-master messed them up.
And the slave-master knew it before Yakub taught him.
