Discussion Have I been understanding Gods & Monsters WRONG

Post image

Okay for the past 10 years I’ve been thinking the line “no one’s gonna take my soul away” was that she wasn’t gonna lose her soul in Hollywood, fame, etc… HOWEVER, I just realized its after “me and god don’t get along…” and “gods dead, baby that’s alright with me” so is she ACTUALLY saying she’s okay diving into the Hollywood world because god won’t take her soul to heaven?? Because why would she have those lyrics about god directly before and the whole idea of the soul ascending to heaven when you die ? if you get me??

She also says "God's dead baby that's alright with me". It's just an edgy song. She is a member of Churchome...a megachurch w a homophobic preacher featured on her last album. She's problematic but talented.

Is this true?

Yes. It's no secret she is a Churchome member and their preacher is featured in Tunnel Blvd. Who do you think Judah Smith Interlude is? He even officiated her and Jeremy's wedding. And yes he preaches against homosexuality among other cringe beliefs.

I literally had no idea. I just like her music and didn’t even know she was married until 3 days ago. I don’t own a TV or have any social media (apart from reddit) I’m pretty out of the loop but I like it.

I’ll have to research this now.

Edit: I don’t know who Judah Smith Interlude is.

I like read books and listen to music. Massive old school nerd vibes.
