Voli – New Religion lyrics

[Verse 1: Kid Digit. O]
I never said I'm heaven-sent, 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

[Chorus]
This is my new religion
This is my new religion
A prisoner of ambition
Will anybody listen?
This is my new religion

[Verse 2: Maza]
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"

[Pre-Chorus: Maza]
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

[Chorus]
This is my new religion
This is my new religion
A prisoner of ambition
Will anybody listen?
This is my new religion

[Verse 3: Voli]
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

[Bridge]
And if I sin
I hope you find
Some way to forgive
All my wrongs
But I can only find
Salvation
All alone

[Chorus]
This is my new religion
This is my new religion
A prisoner of ambition
Will anybody listen?
This is my new religion
