[Chorus]
I've been losing my religion, oh Lord
Now my life is like a fiction I wrote

[Verse 1]
Yeah, I'm the same guy, always tryna chase highs, never the lows
Yeah, I'm like a cowboy always on the run from the sheriff, he knows
He knows I don't fear no one, he knows I'm my father's son
Hm, oh, I hear the bullets flyin' over my head before it's time to reload

[Chorus]
I've been losing my religion, oh Lord
Now my life is like a fiction I wrote
So, let them fire away at me
'Cause I know love will set me free
I've been losing my religion, oh Lord

[Post-Chorus]
I won't surrender
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
I won't surrender
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

[Verse 2]
See, all I need is a bag of weed and a clipper in my pocket
No electricity when I plug in to my socket
Fucking with my energy and I take off like a rocket
King of the Wild Frontier like I'm Davy Crockett
And they won't ever stop me, no
No, they won't ever stop me

[Chorus]
I've been losing my religion, oh Lord
Now my life is like a fiction I wrote
So let them fire away at me
'Cause I know love will set me free
I've been losing my religion, oh Lord

[Post-Chorus]
Oh, well I won't surrender
Ah, ah, ah, ah
I won't surrender
Ah, ah, ah, ah

[Bridge]
Pick a fight
Save my life
I'll survive
Never die
Pick a fight
Save my life
I'll survive
Never die

[Chorus]
I've been losing my religion, oh Lord
Now my life is like a fiction I wrote
So let them fire away at me
'Cause I know love will set me free
I've been losing my religion, oh Lord

[Post-Chorus]
Oh, well I won't surrender
Ah, ah, ah, ah
I won't surrender
Ah, ah, ah, ah

[Outro]
Mm, mm, mm, mm
Mm, mm, mm, mm
Mm, mm, mm, mm
Mm, mm, mm, mm
Mm, mm, mm, mm
Mm, mm, mm, mm
