I’m from the east side of the east/
That’s suburbs of the D side/
PG side, throw a peace sign for the love birds on the V side/
We in a peace time for the mean time/
If it decline better hit a b-line/
Bama’s like Dunkirk, you a rich kid you, you dont want work shorty be quite/
I done seen things that made me wanna do right/
But them same things dragged my brothers to the life/
Made it out the game & we both see that light/
Some of us got obtained cause they couldn’t flee the sight/
Thuggin’, think it was a choice we’ll it wasn’t/
I advise you come and visit just to witness how we hustling/
A Sec Busting, this is how we get it, the percussion is the only thing bouncing we isn’t, run it/
What time you be getting up, early/
What day you be getting fund, Ery/
Time flys better get it done, Hurry
Tell a how far have you come, very/
How hard is it where you from, scary/
Beef get cooked til it’s what, buried/
Talk slick you is getting what, carried/
Ya’ll see us better what, worry/
crank, crank, crank, crank
Yeah Go go hard it’s all that I know/
Go go Hard it’s all in my soul/
Ya’ll ain’t hard that’s all for show/
We Bogarde til ya’ll go home/
Police man kill a Nigga on accident/
Try to stay high so I don’t get mad at it/
I’m just bad at it, another tragedy/
Happen every day, guess that’s average/
Black man first instinct to lavish shit/
Then he handle shit/
Never been a quarterback hi ain’t scrambling/
Ever fall down bet your ass I’m back again/
I’m so adamant/
Understand me never had plan B/
Mind can’t reach what the mind can’t see/
Mind ain’t fed then the mind don’t eat/
And the mind don’t eat then it’s back to the streets/
But actually, they’d rather the streets/
Cause the acts in the streets, put the fans in the seats/
But the man on the streets on the run or deceased/
Nooch report live from the belly of the beast/
What time you be getting up, early/
What day you be getting fund, Ery/
Time flys better get it done, Hurry
Tell a how far have you come, very/
How hard is it where you from, scary/
Beef get cooked til it’s what, buried/
Talk slick you is getting what, carried/
Ya’ll see us better what, worry/
crank, crank, crank, crank
Yeah Go go hard it’s all that I know/
Go go Hard it’s all in my soul/
Ya’ll ain’t hard that’s all for show/
We Bogarde til ya’ll go home/

As soon as I heard the song Like Really I just had to buy the album. Then I finished listening to all the songs, and knew I made a good choice. Oddisee is one of the best hip hop artists on bandcamp. Devin Anderson
Went to college at UMD-College Park and Oddisee and the rest of the MMG had a hold on those of us looking for great music. Nostalgia and the beats still hold up. Salaam. ericburkley
