LYRICS
Singing hymns to a god that i abandoned,
It spit in my hand and it told me its a blessing,
Smile for the peeps, all you gotta do is glisten,
Free yourself from speech, all you gotta do is listen,
Everybody's witness,
Assumptions of my precious heart
The lord giveth,
i forget the second part,
They hating anyway,
I just gave a headed start,
Gold turn to dust like the swiping of a credit card,
Cross my arm, and hope to die,
Voodoo chimes ring when I spit the rhyme,
See your eyes gleam, like the saviour's
called,
You put the sharp toothed goon on your pedestal,
Rotate the doll, and attach it to your heart strings,
Puppet me away till I snap, now your heart stings,
Pink turn to red in your eyes and the swords shing
Used to play me on the aux cord, now they
all sing
Get the fuck out
Get the fuck out (won't you)
Get the fuck out
Get the fuck out (nigga)
(repeat)
Get that nigga outta here
Breathe for a minute,
See you are breeding a menace,
Peep how they twisted the image,
A roll in the blemish,
It's these that you need to be living,
So you can see deep in my presence,
The lead and the premise,
Believe that I've sought for repentance,
The pen the only thing that replenish,
My mind in the tennis,
Back, forth, game in the endless,
It's a party as I
fall in the crevasse,
I strove just to temper my soul into bite size pieces for you just to chew and to
swallow,
Digest in a rush just to shit out tomorrow,
Sing to my happy and dance to my sorrow,
Remember the love and my face you would coddle,
The heroes
reshuffle with a spin of the bottle
Digest in a rush just to shit out tomorrow
They say
Get the fuck out
Get the fuck out (won't you)
Get the fuck out
Get the fuck out (nigga)
(repeat)
Get that nigga outta here

Usually I’m a bit skeptical if an artist can keep the momentum after an amazing album but this song was honestly amazing. Can’t wait to hear more in the future

[@IceBreakBottle]

Try not to be so skeptical and be more open minded :)

[@freakelangelo]

What a shame whole world still sleeps on such a talent. I’m gonna write about Genesis Owusu in my small blog, that’s the least I could do, everyone has to hear him

[@cfbanco777]

Whats ur blog called?

[@brubrulani]

Honestly thought this song had 50 million views as it has played on triple J for like the past 2 months. So surprised it doesn't have a million views yet

[@dylanbernard246]

THE BLACK DOGS ARE BACK WITH ANOTHER ONE. Fantastic track! Owusu is that perfect hybrid of all genres!

[@harrisonowen7166]

Taman pala concert was awesome your music is a blessing

[@JohnCarcer]

Progression is mad already. The video, the vocals and instrumentals are levels above now. Looking forward for the next project :)

[@providencedelfina5439]

Absolutely the guy speaks

[@ratmannratmann4542]

on rap radio Studio 21Moscow Russia (not only in Moscow), they often put this song on the track list (the US Congress should impose sanctions - this is a joke) the radio DJ said that this song would be another anthem of fans - soccer, football or hockey

[@Yourbankaccount]

@@ratmannratmann4542 US Congress? Genesis and his band are based in Australia

[@DrunkenDarkSoul]

MV brought a tear to my Eye. (me own self reflection perhaps)
in the struggle to remove something unwelcomed, we go to such lengths
where we destroy so much around us; the air, the light, the sacred, the walls that protect us.
all to sit in the pieces in peace.

[@josiahnobles]

if history is any indication, violence against a music video cockroach means you’re about to blow the fuck up

[@i_like_lasers]

this is crazy live

[@guybatchelor4646]

The fact he grabbed a cricket bat made me aussie bones tingle

[@JordanSmith-lk9nn]

I've been sleeping on some great talent coming from here, obs first and foremost he is Ghanaian, but still gives me hope I can reach people from this fucked up little island

[@Jack-zj1ug]

I was not prepared

[@waevzau2944]

GENNY WU WU’S BACK 💙

[@t.squared]

No Genesis, I won't get the fuck out, I wanna stay for the next album.

[@Gabriel-fo2mp]

🪳🪳🪳🪳🪳🪳this will slap live !!!

[@blanco2throwed159]

This song is underrated this should be at least 2 mil...but ears be deaf....geni wu keep making good tunes

[@beatsbykana]

such a beautiful melody. this was a quick add to the playlist

[@NidorinoAlliance]

It’s really hard to decipher what these lyrics are about. But my reading is it’s about his recent success through the eyes of god. And him fearing the celebrity status of being treated like a god, because he knows that comes with being rejected like one. Comparing it to his conflict with Christ and religion, where he had to tell the belief to “GTFO” of his life for his own sanity.

[@Bae_Cop2027]

Nah it's about people who struggle to exist in hostile spaces. But they keep moving and are hard to kill (like a roach).

[@SuperVietPryde]

Lets goooooooo

[@jg6551]

no bugs were harmed in the making of this video

[@QPint]

Damn all the way from Void to now this, crazy progress and even crazier talent

[@spectre600rr]

Genesis, thank you for your cover of Psycho Killer with The Chats. If it wasn't for that I wouldn't be listening to this amazing track right now.

[@kalinaglow]

Dude! This. Is. Amazing! The video, references to the shining, a fucking cockroach! This is funny, a genius of a video, a masterpiece of a song. Randomly heard this artist on the radio and the best thing Ive discovered this year.

[@IKMapper]

The production is already so much better than on SWNT, the drums feel so clean! This guy seriously needs more attention

[@jelteknipscheer9508]

The production on swnt was amazing

[@RUSHYRUSHY39]

@@jelteknipscheer9508 I think that might be what the comment was implying, this is definitely an improvement of an already great sound

Can he ever reach his peak? I think not, up up and away😤

[@thebignothing3551]

So exited for this

[@jelteknipscheer9508]

Is he dropping a new song?

[@rudeboyspodcast]

The production on this is god-tier as always. Your flow is fantastic as well.

[@perspicaciouscritic]

This would be a great song to play over the end credits to that Man vs. Bee movie.

[@PhilbinVideos]

Pls collab with Cudi. I think you'd vibe together well, after this song.

[@lukagoreta]

[@HellifIknow88]

This isn't my type of music, but I saw him open for Glass Animals and he put on a really entertaining show. The crowd was actually engaged. Most opening acts the crowd seems to treat them as nothing more than background noise. Not him though.

[@TONINmusic]

I'm going to remix this

[@iiiBran]

He talking to U not me👀

[@ziniminimon]

second album coming or just a one-off single?

[@marcelus4848]

Fucking Amazing Song

[@sebastiandonosopinilla6568]

This sounds a bit like neosurf with 070 shake, not in a bad way but maybe he was inspired by her or maybe its sampled from her song🤔

[@imperialtower]

what does it mean

i would legit cry if this man comes to cardiff
