Heavenly Justice
Kuroma Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

There you will
Smiling at the Flag Man's kill
Making sure it's proper
For the One

Now it seems
Everyone should disagree
Calling up the doctor
Heavenly Justice

Desert Sand
We could build a monument!
Send it to the stranger

With a gun

And now winter comes
Seems as though you've jettisoned




Screaming at the manger
Heavenly Justice

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Kuroma's song Heavenly Justice present a thought-provoking commentary on the nature of justice and morality. The first verse appears to critique the idea of blindly following authority and tradition, as the singer observes someone approving of the killing of the "Flag Man" and wanting to make sure it's done properly. The implication is that just because something is sanctioned or normalized by society or politics, it doesn't necessarily make it right. The chorus introduces the concept of "Heavenly Justice," perhaps as an alternative to the flawed systems of human justice. However, the second verse suggests that even this divine justice is up for interpretation and prone to being manipulated by those in power. The imagery of building a monument in the desert and sending it to a stranger with a gun conveys a sense of futility and disillusionment with trying to uphold justice in a world where violence and injustice seem to reign.


The final chorus brings the song to a close with the repetition of "Heavenly Justice" and the stark image of someone screaming at the manger, which could suggest a loss of faith or a symbolic rejection of the religious institutions that claim to offer salvation. Overall, the lyrics of Heavenly Justice serve as a poignant reflection on the complexities of morality and justice, urging the listener to question their own beliefs and the systems that govern them.
