| [00:19.631] |
I never said I'm heaven-sent, benevolent or seraphim |
| [00:22.008] |
A reverend has never blessed me, there's plenty better men |
| [00:24.568] |
Than just me, I guess I just met destiny and when she said I |
| [00:27.520] |
Was meant to be nothin better |
| [00:29.192] |
I ****ed her head up I said I'm fed up, I'll never let up |
| [00:31.856] |
And even if I never win I'm leaving as a better man |
| [00:34.521] |
The penitentiary, you fence me in, could never dead a man's |
| [00:37.107] |
Dreams it'll never end, you must believe |
| [00:39.380] |
And it seems that I never been who you think never fit in your measurements |
| [00:43.350] |
I'll never be one of you like there's two of me |
| [00:45.753] |
And there's a few of me |
| [00:46.929] |
Your suit never suited me, my school was truancy |
| [00:49.437] |
Newsflash ya, newscaster knew jack, his |
| [00:51.971] |
News wasn't new to me, it's what they want you to see |
| [00:54.426] |
So they could mold ya to what they want you to be |
| [00:56.699] |
But you are free |
| [00:59.206] |
Even if they lock you up you can change who they thought you was |
| [01:02.864] |
You can be who you want, because |
| [01:04.535] |
There's no chains that can stop your thoughts |
| [01:06.312] |
There's no cage that can lock us all |
| [01:08.140] |
There's no way we will not be forced to go away, the only thang they can do is to stop my pulse |
| [01:13.443] |
Still my words ring through the blocks |
| [01:15.115] |
We fought to find you when you think all is lost |
| [01:17.753] |
This is my new religion |
| [01:22.795] |
This is my new religion |
| [01:27.236] |
A prisoner of ambition |
| [01:32.382] |
Will anybody listen? |
| [01:37.215] |
This is my new religion |
| [01:39.853] |
He's sinking deeper even more |
| [01:41.473] |
Amassed a pile of secrets, can't keep 'em like before |
| [01:43.693] |
They spilling out, seeping through the floors |
| [01:45.443] |
Parents seeking the cause, ain't seen this coming, they ain't speakin' anymore |
| [01:48.500] |
They sensed a change, they wanna intervene, but can't seem to get close |
| [01:51.347] |
Will things ever be the same? He just wanna get ghost |
| [01:53.828] |
Packed an extra change of clothes in his coat |
| [01:55.788] |
Hit the corner, switch his gear, now he's ready to post |
| [01:58.243] |
He don't relate to what his dad be sayin', he feels betrayed |
| [02:00.803] |
Feels like everything he says gets washed away, they just look the other way |
| [02:03.807] |
More concerned with keeping up with what others say |
| [02:05.819] |
Ignored another day, he just slowly suffocates |
| [02:08.222] |
Wraps his bandana tighter, met some dudes that he admired |
| [02:10.625] |
Was inspired, they said, "Son, we'll walk with you into the fire |
| [02:13.055] |
We'll be there with you when everyone retreats, repeat |
| [02:15.771] |
We'll there for you when no one else can be" |
| [02:19.846] |
He told him how long waited |
| [02:21.675] |
Told them look nobodies here |
| [02:24.575] |
He told him how far he searched |
| [02:26.403] |
Looked high, looked low, nobody cared |
| [02:29.355] |
He told them bout all the pain he felt |
| [02:31.732] |
But buried deep inside |
| [02:34.162] |
He looked into his fathers eyes |
| [02:36.225] |
And said |
| [02:36.931] |
This is my new religion |
| [02:41.894] |
This is my new religion |
| [02:46.805] |
A prisoner of ambition |
| [02:51.559] |
Will anybody listen? |
| [02:56.575] |
This is my new religion |
| [02:58.194] |
My brain is in the future, my heart is in the moment |
| [03:00.336] |
I try to put my past in a coffin, can I close it? |
| [03:02.922] |
Goin' back and forth between the limbo that I live in |
| [03:05.195] |
And the way of life I think will be the window into heaven |
| [03:07.755] |
Or will it be my prison? Solitary confinement |
| [03:10.263] |
Meditatin', the booth is the monastery, the mind is |
| [03:12.353] |
Is the only enemy that I have |
| [03:14.495] |
The paranoia got me losin' every friend that I've had |
| [03:16.793] |
Slave to the dollar in this quarter life crisis, borderline lifeless |
| [03:20.189] |
Shouldn't even put a donor heart on my license |
| [03:22.775] |
*Gasps* I'm revived by the beat gimme ten seconds |
| [03:25.544] |
See me reppin' with these bars, bench pressin' |
| [03:27.582] |
Never go out, buried in my obsession |
| [03:30.090] |
If you relate, well then you've inherited my religion |
| [03:32.362] |
A lifetime of solitude, I don't need anybody |
| [03:35.340] |
Big change comin', I'm savin' every penny |
| [03:38.841] |
And if I sin |
| [03:40.356] |
I hope you find |
| [03:42.576] |
Some way to forgive |
| [03:46.364] |
All my wrongs |
| [03:48.637] |
But I can only find |
| [03:51.536] |
Salvation |
| [03:53.835] |
All alone |
| [03:56.003] |
This is my new religion |
| [04:00.940] |
This is my new religion |
| [04:05.877] |
A prisoner of ambition |
| [04:10.762] |
Will anybody listen? |
| [04:15.726] |
This is my new religion |
