Zane Smith
My Religion
[Verse 1]

I first went to church in the womb
Surrounded by sin when I jumped in the room
Living everyday like I'm staring at the tomb
Preparing myself cause I know it's coming soon
Ain't nothing promised to me and you, except death
Yeah I'm talking bout that eternal dirt nappy
Maybe that's the time when I might be happy
Hean or a Hell? Only time will tell
See I gotta die just to find out if I took the right route
Day-in-and-day-out
I doubt there's a God
Is my life really in my hands?
Black God in the flesh?
Or a foolish man?
Forgive me if I've sinned
Can't be playing both ends
Hopping over fences when it's in my best interest
I just got questions that ain't been answered

[Hook 3x]

What's my religion?
What's my religion?
Sometimes I'm just living!
[Verse 2]

I don't believe in God, but I believe in God
Ain't it odd? Like what a contradiction
Is It really real? I ain't never had a vision
Premonition, spoken tongue
Am I wrong? Everybody want a safety net?
Parachute or a vest?
I ain't been blessed, I been stressed
Feeling like a pawn in a big game of chess
What's next? what purpose?
What's the true intent that we were all meant?
Spend our days giving praise until the time's spent?
Calling on Jesus, Jehovah, Buddha, Allah
Pray to any God that'll listen to my problems
And make em' disappear like whallah
Some days I'm strong, some days I'm weak
I'm talking about any given day of the week
Days, hours, minutes

[Hook 3x]

What's my religion?
What's my religion?
Sometimes I'm just living!
[Verse 3]

An idle mind is the Devil's playpen
Well, I guess that means we been chillin
In my own mind I be plotting like a villain
Not to mention it's a church on every corner
Making hella money, ain't it funny?
Mega church, mega money
Stacking up them ten percent tithes
Here we go again
Another preacher in the pullpit talking all that bullshit
Need to quit, they a liar
Nose to the sky tryna act high-and-mighty
Put on broadcast what you do on the nightly
Said you needed change?
Said you want a new birth?
Well, that's the wrong way!
You ain't heard?
The Bishop hitting minors in the long-way
Same sex, underage, it's a shame
Who can you trust?
Man we all equals, I never look up
Being on stage don't make you better than us
In this world, who can you trust?

[Hook 3x]
What's my religion?
What's my religion?
Sometimes I'm just living!

[Verse 4]

Sometimes I forget about religion
I got caught up in living my life
Not saying its right
I believe in the ways of the world
The same things happen to every boy and girl
Everybody dishing two cents on religion
Part of growing up is forming your own opinion
I don't get it, to be honest
I don't care, I ain't scared
But I care about murder
Homicide, suicide, genocide
Wicked crimes, spies, lies
And the weapons that could bring our demise
Pushing on the envelope
Splitting up the embryos
Why would two men elope? Who's Steve?
Forgive me! I only heard of Adam and a Eve!
But live yo life!
Cause imma be me!
A lot of pretty women
Tryna sew a couple seeds
But I haven't seen
The fruit that honest life brings
I thought you said you got everything I need?
Okay okay, okay, yeah we gone see
In the meantime, tell me why me!?
