[Lyric] Odyssey (Dre the Monarch)

[Verse 1]
My life bears various stories that I’m scared to share
Robert Horry in the finals I’m in gear to tear
Up a wall drink the sorrow like it’s Belvedere
Used to want to be an engineer
The truth’s incendiary
If you’re unprepared To let go
Your precious paradigm better bomb it like Aleppo
Life is gold men discover when they’re old
The time to build a family is rapidly ugh
I’m in the apathy home
Gladly sitting back
When I’m alone and off the phone I’m prolly slitting tracks
Bring attention back to fore
I been spaced out
Like that rockets offense
Or the Martians
Went through 8 droughts
I’m yet to age out
Of the system I’ve been caged
Yet to get a victory like diamond dallas page
I was born in Harris County nigga Houston is the way
Used to disobey authority when not in the minority
Far from freedom fighter
Never need a lighter
Check the Augury
I’m set to blow like Aubrey if motivation holds
The death throes Before a nation falls
Gordon gecko greed is good livin over debt the old
A dragon to Edgar Allan nigga don’t forget poe
The fall of Rome reliveth
Ran a marathon like Molly Tibbets end up lost
That’s how I finished out the first year of college shit
From ominous to buddin psychologist
The problems buried under my façade, I’ll acknowledge it
Dropped out while I was rapping
Found a gem in I
I’ve gained a lot of weight there’s been some distance with the gym and I
[Hook]
I’mma get through or die tryin
I’mma get through or die tryin
I’mma get through or die tryin
A taste of sacrifice is divine like Mayans
I’mma get through or die trying

[Verse 2]
I’mma get through or die trying
Grind rhymes to intrude my silence
I try to exclude my bias
Like Cyrus the second
The papyrus is effortless
The holiest of emperors
Search it down to exodus
My people never wrote their history
So read about the Pegasus, and Perseus And Sisyphus's mystery
Achilles had his injury
Existence is a misery
You niggas can’t do shit to me

[Hook]
