Oddisee, Olivier St. Louis - Go to Mars lyrics
[Oddisee, Olivier St. Louis - Go to Mars lyrics]
I done played by the rules
I've been made out a fool
By the few who make the laws
Don't break 'em, make a clause
Wanna fish, not just fry
Wanna live while alive
What's the cost all don't pay
Waive me by, by, by save a pie, not a slice
For the mice among men
Let me fend for myself
You just lend what I spend
Pay you back, not revenge
Just them dollars, extra cents
That's the interest
I ain't interested in getting high, high
High
Is a savior, someone who will save ya?
Or at least make you feel like he
Will till your will is enslaved?
I don't know but I'm starting to feel
Like I'm caught in a wheel
That's spinning around with no
Brakes up a hill is it fact, is it fake
Doesn't matter if it's real
Just as long as I escape
I wanna go to mars live amongst the stars
Be the one that got away from it all
I wanna go to mars live amongst the stars
Be the one that got away from it all
Fighting for a seat on a vessel fully booked
I'll compete for a glance
Satisfied with just a look
Trying to get on board
In the front with all the crooks
Show them I am something more than
Just a number in a book
I'm a king without a castle with
Some hassle but it's free
Just another brother quick to turn
His back on other peeps
If it means I'm seen as higher
Than them classes under me
If I'm fine that's all that matters
Politics don't party, please
Hear me out now i'm filled up with doubt now
That if I don't sell you out
I'll join the crowd of us that's
Living just to bow down
I don't know
But I've reached the top of the bottom
And now I'm at the bottom of
Something still far from the ground
If I fail to understand how to live
Entitled 'cause survival's all I comprehend
I pretend
I wanna go to mars live amongst the stars
Be the one that got away from it all
I wanna go to mars live amongst the stars
Be the one that got away from it all
I've been made out a fool
By the few who make the laws
Don't break 'em, make a clause
Wanna fish, not just fry
Wanna live while alive
What's the cost all don't pay
Waive me by, by, by save a pie, not a slice
For the mice among men
Let me fend for myself
You just lend what I spend
Pay you back, not revenge
Just them dollars, extra cents
That's the interest
I ain't interested in getting high, high
High
Is a savior, someone who will save ya?
Or at least make you feel like he
Will till your will is enslaved?
I don't know but I'm starting to feel
Like I'm caught in a wheel
That's spinning around with no
Brakes up a hill is it fact, is it fake
Doesn't matter if it's real
Just as long as I escape
I wanna go to mars live amongst the stars
Be the one that got away from it all
I wanna go to mars live amongst the stars
Be the one that got away from it all
