Go to Mars

Oddisee

[Verse 1]
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

[Bridge]
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

[Chorus: Olivier St. Louis]
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

[Verse 2]
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

[Bridge 2]
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

[Chorus: Olivier St. Louis]
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
