ESSC5 | Opa to the Shame - Cyprus 🇨🇾 | Official Audio

[LYRICS]

[Verse 1]
Scroll
Scroll
Scroll!
Like an oracle curse
Ancient screenshots
Burning in my hands
"Hey haha"
I wrote that line
Like a clown in a crumbling shrine

[Verse 2]
Typing in English
Thinking in Attic pride
Now it reads
Like a drunk satyr aside
Every "u up?"
Every broken joke
Smells like incense
And melted plastic hope

[Chorus]
I’m screaming through my own papyrus
Old words circle like a chorus of Furies
Cringe in the agora
Everyone staring at my ghosts
Tear out the timeline
Rip up the tablet
I don't know that kid I was
But he wears my name like a stolen cloak

[Verse 3]
You said "omg"
I replied with ten
Like Hermes tripping
Over my tongue again
Emoji rain
Over dead dry soil
Philosopher pose
In a chatroom coil

[Verse 4]
Little laurel crowns
I gave myself
Quoting half a quote
From someone else
Now I read it back
Like a failed oath
Shouting "σ’αγαπώ"
To a leaving boat

[Chorus]
I’m screaming through my own papyrus
Old words circle like a chorus of Furies
Cringe in the agora
Everyone staring at my ghosts
Tear out the timeline
Rip up the tablet
I don't know that kid I was
But he wears my name like a stolen cloak

[Verse 5]
Kyrie
Have mercy on
This disaster log
This archive fog

[Verse 6]
Chisel out my chatter from the marble
Let the letters fall like teeth
I was a child on a cracked Acropolis
Spray-paint heartbeats underneath

[Bridge]
Raise the cup
To my own mistakes
Opa to the shame
Till the column breaks

[Chorus]
I’m screaming through my own papyrus
Old words circle like a chorus of Furies
Cringe in the agora
Everyone staring at my ghosts
Tear out the timeline
Rip up the tablet
I don't know that kid I was
But he wears my name like a stolen cloak
