God Complex Lyrics

[Intro]
You have to realize that, his god complex comes from a power complex of greed, he’s selfish (God complex)

[Chorus]
God complex
God complex
God complex
God complex
God complex
God complex
God complex
God complex
God complex

[Verse 1]
You ain’t God, quit trying to play the role, man
I know ya whole plan, you stole men as well as the gold land
Who gave you the right to light the fuse to the farm and harm Vietnam with napalm
You don’t belong with the civilized world
‘Cause you can’t behave, go get back in your cave
You synthesize the pill to kill the will to rebuild
‘Cause you know we need our children
But each generation keeps getting stronger than the last one
So it’s hard to pull a fast one
On the youth today ‘cause we don’t play that
Get down with us or you better ease way back
And make way for a righteous path
Call me nigga and I might just laugh or I might bust ya ass, so watch ya step
You ain’t God, why you got a God complex

[Chorus]
God complex (You have to realize that, his god complex comes from a power complex of greed, he’s selfish)
God complex
God complex
Why you got a God complex (God complex)
God complex
God complex
God complex (Ho, ha)
God complex

[Verse 2]
You ain’t God, tryna change Moses color
He ain’t look like Charlton Heston, he was a brother
Elizabeth Taylor was much much paler than the real Cleopatra, why’d you get her?
Nevermind
I already know your answer
Ya blowin’ smoke in my ass and it’s givin’ me cancer in my eye
Not the one I see out but the third one, the mind
It's the God so it can't be the blurred one
‘Cause when you’re mentally blind you can still get fooled
You got your sight but you don’t got foresight, hindsight or insight
Your vision is blocked
By a bright bright light, sayin’ white is right
And black is wrong but black is strong and beautiful
Peaceful, resourceful, forceful, and powerful
But that ain’t a God complex, its knowledge itself
And I fight the power but not for your wealth
I don't wanna fight your war (fight your war)
Because I'd rather die for a cause, than be the cause
I dont have the right to take another brother’s life
In self defense at America’s expense
Who gave you the okay to say it’s okay to shoot, suffocate by gas, or electrocute
When a clansmen can run for a senator
And billions of dollars are spent on a stealth bomb
Our toys are armin’ the father of my country
Coulda own my great, great, great, great, great grandmama
Now
Here we are, centuries later
Resilient, brilliant, drummin’ poetry
Educators and orators and commentators and narrators, initiators, innovators and gladiators
Watchin’ the USA play war games
Create drugs, disease, and more pain
So if you’re tryna play God, you’re doin’ a lousy job
Ya clod, you fired and bought and sold ya squad
‘Cause you’ve done nothing but destruct, destroy, deplete, debase, deface, deceive and decoy
I’m only speaking what your story reflects
I’m only speaking what our story reflects
I’m only speaking what history reflects
You’ve always had a God complex (God complex)

[Chorus]
God complex
God complex
God complex
God complex
God complex
God complex (you have to realize that, his God complex comes from a power complex, of greed, he’s selfish)
God complex
God-God complex

[Outro]
Yo when your time is up, that devil mentality is outta here
Man will understand man, live in harmony and peace, and the sun will once again rise up in the east
(You have to realize that, his God complex comes from a power complex, of greed, he’s selfish)
For peace
