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
