lyrics

When the moon is full and the tide is high
You can hear my mary cry 

Find a new religion 
Find a new religion 
Find a new religion yea 
Find a new religion 

Now Mary was my sista 
Y’all stay believing strangers 
Tell me when the last time you heard of 
Of a man that wasn’t dangerous 
Yemoja Tahira 
Their histories have shamed her 
O holy one immaculate 
Who led you to the manger 

He need to find a new religion yea 
Find a new religion 
Mary was my sista (oh) 
Oh find a new religion darling
You need to find a new religion yea 
Oh find a new religion 
Tell me when the last time you heard of 
Of a man that wasn’t dangerous 

¿Que traigas Maria?
They only know what they have read 
Moyuba Yemoja 
O the undertow will have their heads 
Corona mentira 
The roses will tear the veil 
Omega O Magdalene 
Cries raining on a coffin nail 

I ain't yo mama 
But it could be drama 
And you ain't workin 
And I don't care 
And you can’t see me 
But still you stare yea 
And I ain't mama 
Naw I aint yo daughter 
I am not yo sista 
Don’t speak my name 

You need to find a new religion
Find a new religion 
Mary was my sista oh 
Oh find a new religion 
You need to find a new religion yea 
Oh find a new religion 
When the last time you heard of 
Of a man that wasn’t dangerous 

Throw a little sage in the spliff like 
you need to back up 
when I come through 
homie something on you ain’t right 
No it ain’t 
Throw a sage in a spliff like 
You need to back up when I come through
Homie something on you ain’t right 
No no  
Throw a little sage in the spliff like 
you need to back up 
when I come through 
homie something on you
Homie something on you ain’t right
No No 

Throw a little sage in the spliff like 
you need to back up 
when I come through 
homie something on you
homie something on you ain’t right  

Need to find a new religion yea 
Find a new religion 
Mary was my sista Oh 
Find a new religion darling 

You need to find a new religion yea 
Oh find a new religion 
Tell me when the last time you heard of 
Of a man that wasn’t dangerous 

Mary was my sister (oh ohh)
Why ya stay believing strangers
Mary was my sista Oh
Find a new religion 
You need to find a new religion yea 
Mm find a new religion 
Mary was my sista
Mm mm mm Find a new religion
