King Midas vs. Medusa
[Verse 1: King Midas (Freshy Kanal)]
(Yeah, yeah, what?) Kicks and the bling only fit for a king
I got iced-out rings like a rink
Pour another Vintage to drink, the original Richard Branson
Rich as Mansa, I'm Mr. Banker
Boats full of gold, so they don’t even go
When you lift the anchor - all my ships are backed up
I'm Olympus status, who needs Olympic matches?
Win medallions from all of my interactions
Oh, you're here too, unexpectedly (What?)
Shouldn’t you still be sitting at therapy?
Life flipped and tossed for a sense of scale
The tale of your head is one of heads and tails
I'm frickin' flyer than the child that she died to free
You'rе outta luck, so don't roll your snake eyes at mе
And while this outcome isn't likely
Keep the veil down if you're ever a bride-to-be
[Verse 2: Medusa (StargirlKyu)]
Peasants tire of your brags being shoved down their throats
I'll do Greece a favor, turn your mouth to stone
How can a man so rich still have no values?
Carry so many secrets, you look like a pack mule
His stupidity is understated
Thought a barber shop would’ve sung and praised him
It wasn’t a close shave, everyone was throwin' shade
At the death of his own fucking reputation
Don’t mistake placations they gift you as tributes
Your people are laughing at you, not with you
Tired of your wealth and its blatant misuse
It's extra fool's gold they must slave and sift through
Run like the waters, beauty's in the eye of the beholder
And all I see in front of me’s a bum of a father
I grew up in despair, and the only thing
Colder than my lair is a hug from your daughter
I've been secluded for years without a dime
You eat grapes off a vine, still find time to whine
Act high and mighty, I'll be getting you stoned to death
No pound of gold can outweigh your loneliness
[Verse 3: King Midas (Freshy Kanal)]
Lonely? Lady, you rested in a temple
'Til Perseus showed up and disconnected your temple
He got your head in the bag for a king, it doesn't shock me
I get your head on a bag when I buy Versace
Try to stop me, my fortune's enormous
You bore me much more than your stories of horseshit
Athena's curse made you an ouroboros
You had snakes all around you before you were a Gorgon
[Verse 4: Medusa (StargirlKyu)]
The gods that I prayed to attacked and betrayed me
Now they're the prey of the monster they made me
History shows that my anger is righteous
You're sad 'cause you're drowning in gold? Poor Midas
Who cares about a king that was consumed by greed
And fed his hubris until he had no food to eat?
The human species now is enough proof to me
You're just a cautionary tale that every fool repeats
[Verse 5: King Midas (Freshy Kanal)]
(Alright, listen)
Any barber hired for your style would be way too scared
It shouldn't take Steve Irwin to tame your hair
Don't get ahead of yourself, this ain't a clash of titans
When you can't even survive in Percy Jackson's writing
You turn bodies lifeless, I turn commodities priceless
A tidal of tidings, fuck Poseidon, take his trident
Show you all a new wave, coldest ruler who gave
Not a single fuck 'bout anyone, looks like a golden goose egg
[Verse 6: Medusa (StargirlKyu)]
Selfish oaf, so gross and uncouth
Dionysus wouldn't touch you with a ten foot tube
You're not a master just because you got a cut tooth (Nah)
The gold rush was a bust and you'll be one too
You were warned about your wish and that it would never last
Midas touch? You'll bite the dust before you're ever lent a hand
No man or god averts my gaze, my revenge will be had
Turning all of you to nothing more than relics of the past
