Rucka Rucka Ali - Atlantis lyrics
[Rucka Rucka Ali - Atlantis lyrics]
There was a moment I learned I was lied to
I turned to Poseidon burned up inside
And cursed at the sky
Shook the earth with a cry
And I knew when it's time I would die too
I dreamed God is a woman
Her thoughts paint the world as
It could have been
And all that I do is propelled by the purpose
Of courting the goddess and earn her response
'Til she wants me inside her perfection
How the hell will I earn your affection
My angel? You went from the Hera of all
That is right with the world
To the mason of what's mediocre
Is greatness a dealbreak?
Would you've thought that it all was
A plan to attract you?
I had hoped that the music
Would catch your attention
I can't make you happy without it
Got no personality nothing but sadness
Imagine if music is sounds from a planet
Where facts are the standard
And passion is brazen and
Pain doesn't matter
Where heroes are loved for their virtues
And love is deserved
Because back here on earth
It just looks like the music comes out of
The mouths of the damned and the bastard
But you could take my hand and
Together we could find Atlantis
Sometimes when I'm outside at night
I'll just gaze through a window
As though life is greater inside
When I try putting my finger on it
It's like asking why grass is brighter
I sigh and walk faster
I used to get high just
To capture the feeling
But now I just feel it in dreams
And achievements don't have any meaning
If I'm not complete
Like the people I see on TV and in movies
And I'm not into playin' these
Games with these groupies
But haven't received any favors
Lately from Cupid
But I never lost sight of the idol I worship
I never lost sight of the idol like you did
I turned to Poseidon burned up inside
And cursed at the sky
Shook the earth with a cry
And I knew when it's time I would die too
I dreamed God is a woman
Her thoughts paint the world as
It could have been
And all that I do is propelled by the purpose
Of courting the goddess and earn her response
'Til she wants me inside her perfection
How the hell will I earn your affection
My angel? You went from the Hera of all
That is right with the world
To the mason of what's mediocre
Is greatness a dealbreak?
Would you've thought that it all was
A plan to attract you?
I had hoped that the music
Would catch your attention
I can't make you happy without it
Got no personality nothing but sadness
Imagine if music is sounds from a planet
Where facts are the standard
And passion is brazen and
Pain doesn't matter
Where heroes are loved for their virtues
And love is deserved
Because back here on earth
It just looks like the music comes out of
The mouths of the damned and the bastard
But you could take my hand and
Together we could find Atlantis
Sometimes when I'm outside at night
I'll just gaze through a window
As though life is greater inside
When I try putting my finger on it
It's like asking why grass is brighter
I sigh and walk faster
I used to get high just
To capture the feeling
But now I just feel it in dreams
And achievements don't have any meaning
If I'm not complete
Like the people I see on TV and in movies
And I'm not into playin' these
Games with these groupies
But haven't received any favors
Lately from Cupid
But I never lost sight of the idol I worship
I never lost sight of the idol like you did
