shmu-el ocho – religion كلمات اغاني

[acoustic guitar by jacob strom- lyrics by shmu-el ocho]
[original version of track]
verse 1
i grew up reading the bible
i also grew up believing the bible was a storybook
fictional tales of moses and the garden of eden
that’s what my daddy told me, the fiction of christ bleeding
go to nigeria, everyone is so religious
church, sunday school, prayer, man, my people live it
giving praise to god, for them it’s third nature
i remember sitting down for 40-minute prayers
huh, this is a verse about religion
to be honest i usually try and avoid the subject
huh, it’s so controversial
people have k!lled people over it, uh
isis and al-qaeda tryna start the modern-day crusades
they be k!lling people in a permanent craze
they say that they doing it for the faith
it’s funny how they say that they religious because
in the koran, abel tells cain
that he don’t wanna fight back even though cain wants him slain, uh
the truth is, major religions are guilty
of cold-blooded murder, the concept of holy burners
europeans invented the idea
that belief separates us, we living in fear, uh
so we gotta sit down, think for a minute
what does religion mean to us, my dears

chrous(x2)
what does religion mean to you
does it mean murder, does it mean the truth
does it mean unity or division
does god really make all the decisions

verse 2
to all you who pray to jesus, go ‘head, worship
all you who pray to buddha, go ‘head, worship
all you worshipping muhammad, go ‘head, worship
to me? huh, music is a divinity
people ‘been fighting for centuries over christ’s existence
music is loved by the world entire
music can change your world, music can inspire
the right music starts revolutionary fires
mama said that nigeria was doing just fine before the europeans came and colonized
ancient africans weren’t stupid as to not use what they had to get what they needed in time
i’m just baffled that the white man somehow convinced the black man to leave what they had all behind
but i’m just another kid with another opinion, i can’t force you to pay me any mind

chorus(x2)
what does religion mean to you
does it mean murder, does it mean the truth
does it mean unity or division
does god really make all the decisions

verse 3
i shouldn’t blindly believe what somebody tells me, even if it’s my daddy
i’m tryna make sense of the world around me
i’m only 17, it’s a lifelong journey
my relatives want me to go to church, my mama go to church
the messiah is what they trying to to search, uh
in god’s will, people will do the worst
way too many people have been hurt, uh, yeah
huh, this is a song about religion
to be honest i usually try and avoid the subject
it’s stressful to rap about
people have k!lled people over it, uh

[bridge]
