Ooe
Olympus on Earth
A couple of people who thinking they own this shit
I know what I'm worth
I take what I see that's how I was taught to be
To stubborn to quit
And my back on the wall
I guess that I'm destined to fall
I look to the sky and see me a star
Nigga That's Icarus dawg
Olympus on earth
Where streets is the coliseum
And the profit of news make the fans cheer
The color of skin make you gladiator
Know the news is a public lynching
So they air out a nigga
For aiming too high in the sky
Smoking the devils lettuce
I been looking for peace of mind
And maybe this piece'll do it
Olympus on earth
Where niggas was chained for the money
Was slaves for the money
Then told us the money the motivator
And We need it so bad we gon act like a cancer
To one another
I don't want reformation
I want this shit burned to the ground
And started again
You heard what I said
(Yeah)
Olympus on earth
Been tired of being the sisyphus
Pushing for change inside of this system
And I know that god was made in our image
Who else you know gone make up a face
On a religion and make it look just like them
That ain't our ignorance (Nah)
That shit our arrogance
Nigga I know that I'm part of the problem
I dream of a car thats a college tuition
Work for a building that's empty for Christmas
Maybe some grills thats just for the irony
I just been stuck in the poverty
Knowing I'm aiming for wealth in a place that don't want me
To make it outside of the class that they put me in
They say no blue in my veins
I think that they going insane
Maybe these people is acting like gods
Thinking they making a difference
I ain't see scum in a minute so maybe
I lost all my empathy
Seeing the killing again and again and again
I lost all the ink in this pen
Need some revenge instead
I guess I'm losing my
Olympus on Earth
Where acting like god mean that you cover the sun with a thumb
And pray that we playing along
I rather be demigod, rather be human, I rather be flawed
Born in a world where I'm riding with death from the start
Putting a hex on my heart
Hoping i'm losing my spark
That shit cant
Olympus on Earth
Where people is looking for leaders
And leaders the ones who been looking above
See us in dirt, and see us in blood
Having a couple of us at the table and all of a sudden they sink like Kaluuya
Get out of the system and say hallelujah
Then turning around and seeing right through us
Damn
A couple of people who thinking they own this shit
I know what I'm worth
I take what I see that's how I was taught to be
To stubborn to quit
And my back on the wall
I guess that I'm destined to fall
I look to the sky and see me a star
Nigga That's Icarus dawg
