[Voli Contra, SYOR - New Religion lyrics]
Benevolent or seraphim
A reverend has never blessed me
There's plenty better men than just me
I guess I just met destiny
And when she said I
Was meant to be nothin better
I fucked her head up I said I'm fed up
I'll never let up
And even if I never win I'm
Leaving as a better man
The penitentiary, you fence me in
Could never dead a man's
Dreams it'll never end, you must believe
And it seems that I never been who
You think never fit in your measurements
I'll never be one of you
Like there's two of me
And there's a few of me
Your suit never suited me
My school was truancy
Newsflash ya, newscaster knew jack, his
News wasn't new to me
It's what they want you to see
So they could mold ya to what
They want you to be but, you are free
Even if they lock you up you can
Change who they thought you was
You can be who you want, because
There's no chains that can stop your thoughts
There's no cage that can lock us all
There's no way we will not
Be forced to go away
The only thang they can do
Is to stop my pulse
Still my words ring through the blocks
We fought to find you when
You think all is lost
This is my new religion
This is my new religion
A prisoner of ambition will anybody listen?
This is my new religion
He's sinking deeper even more
Amassed a pile of secrets
Can't keep 'em like before
They spilling out, seeping through the floors
Parents seeking the cause, ain't
Seen this coming
They ain't speakin' anymore
They sensed a change, they wanna intervene
But can't seem to get close
Will things ever be the same?
He just wanna get ghost
Packed an extra change of clothes in his coat
Hit the corner, switch his gear
Now he's ready to post
He don't relate to what his dad be sayin'
He feels betrayed
Feels like everything he says
Gets washed away
They just look the other way
More concerned with keeping up
With what others say ignored another day
He just slowly suffocates
Wraps his bandana tighter
Met some dudes that he admired
Was inspired, they said, "Son
We'll walk with you into the fire
We'll be there with you
When everyone retreats, repeat
We'll there for you when no one else can be"
He told him how long waited
Told them look nobodies here
He told him how far he searched
Looked high, looked low, nobody cared
He told them bout all the pain he felt
But buried deep inside
He looked into his fathers eyes and said
This is my new religion
This is my new religion
A prisoner of ambition will anybody listen?
This is my new religion
My brain is in the future
My heart is in the moment
I try to put my past in a coffin
Can I close it?
Goin' back and forth between the
Limbo that I live in
And the way of life I think
Will be the window into heaven
Or will it be my prison? Solitary confinement
Meditatin', the booth is the monastery
The mind is is the only enemy that I have
The paranoia got me losin' every
Friend that I've had slave to the dollar in
This quarter life crisis
Borderline lifeless
Shouldn't even put a donor
Heart on my license gasps I'm revived by the
Beat gimme ten seconds
See me reppin' with these bars
Bench pressin'
Never go out, buried in my obsession
If you relate
Well then you've inherited my religion
A lifetime of solitude, I don't need anybody
Big change comin', I'm savin' every penny
And if I sin i hope you find
Some way to forgive all my wrongs
But, I can only find salvation all alone
This is my new religion
This is my new religion
A prisoner of ambition will anybody listen?
This is my new religion
