[Verse 1]
Taxi driver
You're my shrink for the hour
Leave the meter running
It's rush hour
So take the streets if you wanna
Just outrun the demons, could you?
He said "allahu akbar", I told him don't curse me
"But boy you need prayer", I guess it couldn't hurt me
If it brings me to my knees
It's a bad religion
[Chorus]
This unrequited love
To me it's nothing but
A one-man cult
And cyanide in my styrofoam cup
I could never make him love me
Never make him love me
Love
Love
[Verse 2]
Taxi driver
I swear I've got three lives
Balanced on my head like steak knives
I can't tell you the truth about my disguise
I can't trust no one
And you say "allahu akbar", I told him don't curse me
"But boy you need prayer", I guess it couldn't hurt me
If it brings me to my knees
It's a bad religion
[Chorus]
This unrequited love
To me it's nothing but
A one-man cult
And cyanide in my styrofoam cup
I could never make him love me
Never make him love me
No
[Outro]
It's a bad religion
To be in love with someone
Who could never love you
I know
Only bad religion
Could have me feeling the way I do

What is the meaning behind Bad Religion lyrics?
When we try to interpret the meaning, in his song "Bad Religion," Frank Ocean employs the metaphors of "taxi driver" and "Allahu akbar" to convey the agony of one-sided love. The verses illustrate the difficulty of loving someone who will not and cannot return the passion, likening it to a virulent and noxious "bad religion" that makes the singer weak. The lyrics of Bad Religion mainly focus on heartbreak, love, angst, despair, and contemplation. At the same time, the song admits unrequited love, struggle, and despair as its central themes. The lyrics deal with complex issues like unreciprocated love and prayers and religion that may not be appropriate for kids below 13 years old.
