Fishin' 4 Religion Lyrics


Grab the hook, grab the line
Grab the bait, grab the box and wait
Tackle and shackle the topic the faculty has chosen
Chosen by many, chosen by plenty, chosen by anyMan or woman who can't understand
The topic that's known
And go by the dock, flock and clock the topic
As I drop my hook and get a biteThe reason I'm fishin' 4 a new religion
Is my church makes me fall asleep
They're praising a God, that watches you weep
And doesn't want you to do a damn thing about itWhen they want change
The preacher says, "Shout it"
Does shout bring about change? I doubt it
All shout does is make you lose your voiceSo on the dock I sit in silence
Staring at a sea that's full of violence
Scared to put my line in that water
'Coz it seems like no religion is in thereNaively so I give it another go
Sitting in church, hearing legitimate woes
Pastor tells the lady it'll be alright

Just pray so you can see the pearly gates so whiteSo the lady prays and prays and prays and prays
It's everlasting, there's nothing wrong with praying, it's what she's asking
She's asking the Lord, to let her cope
So one day she can see the golden ropesWhat you pray for God, will give
To be able to cope in this world we live in
It goes the word cope and the word change
Is directly opposite, not the sameShe should have been praying to change her woes
But pastor said, "Pray to cope with those"
The government is happy with most baptist churches
'Coz we don't do a damn thing to try to nurtureBrothers and sisters on a revolution
Baptist teaches, dying is the only solution
Passiveness causes others to pass us by
I throw my line until I've made my decisionUntil then, I'm still fishin' 4 religion
I'm fishin' 4 religion
Fishin' 4 religion
Fishin' 4 religionFishin' 4 religion
Fishin' 4 religion
Fishin' 4 religion

Arrested Development is an afrocentric hip-hop group, founded by Speech and Headliner as a positive, alternative to the gangsta rap popular in the early 1990s. It took the group three years, five months and two days to be offered a record deal. Hence the name of the first album was 3 Years, 5 Months & 2 Days in the Life Of..., which produced several hit tracks. These included "Tennessee", "People Everyday", and "Mr. Wendal", which hit the top ten. The group won a Grammy Award for Best Rap Album and Best New Artist, and were also Band of the Year by Rolling Stone magazine.
