Atlantis - Rucka Rucka Ali

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
