The Great Escape

I done seen so much trouble in the past year
That I can't wait to next year's last year
We need quick change no cashier
Good conversation everybody quick to clash here
No compash (compassion) here.
Desensitized. We all talk no action paralyzed
All ice no traction
Throw your TV out the window so the revolution won't be televised.
I see hope advertised on billboards
Hypnotized you and yours monies what we kill for
Watch the desires like when Prometheus gave man fire
I roll with the punches but I'm so tired
Got the same answer that Zeus replied with
He said "may they be all glad of heart while
Embrace their own destruction"
Man I'm trying!!!

Everybody tryna sell me a dream
Everywhere I look I see the same thing
Everybody tryna sell me what the don't see in they selves
Tryna sell it on me
Imma tell you how it's gon be
Love you before you say you love me
Escape back to the real thing
I said escape back to the real thing

They tried to confine me
Took a toll on my soul
You only get one shot
Better cock and reload
So here's goes nothing
Freedom ringing I hear it I can
Feel it in the center of my gut
And in my toes
There's a fire inside
And my inner furnace is burning
And The spark was the dark
I avoided the noises
Nah they cant be silenced
My survivals important
I'll go to war with Zeus
My sword is sharp and it's pointed
At whomever trying to keep them chains on me
I got some wisdom from Athena
Then I waded in the water
Washed chaos and the pain away
You can Go place the blame on me
I stole myself back from everythang everybody
Who ain't Godly
Being afraid hell of a strain on me
But them days over now a soldier
I hold it down
Don't matter what shade of orange the POTUS is
Imma radiate indigo and spray it over the kids
And Give em that purple reign til start feeling like prince
Or princess
A Queen gon be supreme Until the end
Try selling us all hope
My ancestors was sold
Brave goddess in armor-wearing warrior cloak
Tapping into blackness
And Battle the unknown
I'm navigating my way
Creating the great escape
Here I go...
Everybody tryna sell me a dream
Everywhere I look I see the same thing
Everybody tryna sell me what the don't see in they selves
Tryna sell it on me
Imma tell you how it's gon be
Love you before you say you love me
Escape back to the real thing
I said escape back to the real thing
Am I the only one that see it
I can't even point the finger your ego will eat it
I can say it's Trump I can say Russia cheated
But if I talk and don't do then I'm nothing either
It's goes deeper so deeper
You still sleeping soul keeper
Greed seeker grim reaper
It's in the people
It's in the people
Heaven help us we're trapped in a box like Elpis
Hopes half good half helpless
And we're so selfish
That's why the poor stay poor and the rich stay wealthy.
How can you stop what was here before you
It's embedded in our blood like the earths oil
We need foundation fresh soil
We need a new found nation this here is spoiled

Everybody tryna sell me a dream
Everywhere I look I see the same thing
Everybody tryna sell me what the don't see in they selves
Tryna sell it on me
Imma tell you how it's gon be
Love you before you say you love me
Escape back to the real thing
I said escape back to the real thing
