My way might not be your way
But it's okay
It's alright, your way might not be my way
But it's okay
It's alright
Yea, I used to go to church
But the church didn't quench my thirst
Mama taught me to put god first
But she never tried to block my search
I was curious, young but serious
Why is religion, so mysterious
Why is black life so hard?
They say you're not supposed to question God
Well is it okay to question the pastor?
Was it passed down from the slave-master?
It was only the truth I was after
But I never could get a straight answer
So I couldn't relate to the sermon
Put down the bible, then I start learning
About life, didn't know where the path would lead
But I had to get off my knees
My way might not be your way
But it's okay
It's alright, your way might not be my way
But it's okay
It's alright
I build with the fire that's in us
Only God within us, it's no limits
Study the med 2 netter from chemic
Also I remembered
Smoke herb with the Rastafarians
Who my locks became a vegetarian
Following the tao, filling what the bible lacks
Jewels being handed to an innocent child
My mind is a Buddhist temple, the truth is simple
I try to be principle
Walking with a warrior spirit
It ain't nothing like learning from first hand life experience
I'm a realist, that's all I deal with
Respect the truth, that's all I build with
A child of the universe
My religion is life and it's just as valid
I strive for balance
My way might not be your way
But it's okay
It's alright, your way might not be my way
But it's okay
It's alright
I gotta admit, I don't know
End to end which way it's gonna' go
Why we sit by the project window?
Instead of living off the land with my kin folk
Is there even a master plan?
An unseen hand? Is God a man?
Some say that's sacrilegious
Same folks selling us lies about Christmas
Santa Claus and the Easter Bunny
Just so the capitalists can make money
They say God will take care of it
But you a terrorist if you say the same thing in Arabic
It's so hypocritical
It's a miracle, listen to the message in the spirituals
Wadin' the water, I'm following Ms. Tubman and Nat Turner
I'm paying for my freedom and headin' for the border
My way might not be your way
But it's okay
It's alright, your way might not be my way
But it's okay
It's alright
My way might not be your way
But it's okay
It's alright, your way might not be my way
But it's okay
It's alright
