Christian, if you're a one of God.
- Be a Christian, it's a religion.
So I don't fall under any religion.

Before I believed in ancestors, I was a Christian.
I was falling under a certain religion,
which is Christianity.
Then I believed in ancestors, right?

I never stopped believing in God.
But no, man, I had to do self-introspection, right?

as you say you are, why do you always need me
to do things for you?
- Are these the ancestors now, yeah?
