Verbal Kent:
It's never too
Late to die for somethin' you love never to late to
make somethin' out of today, It never was it never
will be: I used to walk the neighborhood I didn't really
fear much
walked around the neighborhood with headphones as
earmuffs: Frozen tears cloggen' up my tear ducts: I'm
older a nickel bag was cheaper than a beer was
only cause I knew the dealer...it was me
It was easy everybody smoked: it was weed
we can see the pattern here, life was easy going then,
I would be fronted and then be owin' them, who could stop me:
Steph Curry with Del watchin my confidence
level swelled i never even threw a punch but I could
excel boxing I tell people I couldn't lose, Parker
Lewis with Ferris Buler reviews: I think I kept a
little of that swag: a little of that beta that
Young dreamer is Annakin.. I never ended up a Darth Vader let's
Go
Don't you ever lose your heart, man don'tchu ever lose your heart
This world el try and rip you apart, don'tchu
ever let Em' take your heart
When everything is falling apart, take a second and go back to the start,
Don't you ever lose your heart, don't you ever lose your heart
Red Pill:
I know most people wouldn't call me optimistic
At best I'm realistic and at worst I'd say a cynic
and I get it, but honestly I think it's too simplistic
My entire life is based upon a pipe dream and I risked it
Cuz as a kid they fill your head with so much pressure
But I never bought their method of the way success is measured
They promise people treasure in the form of legal tender
If you leave behind the hopes and dreams that give you real pleasure
But I remember back in Kindergarten, writing what I wanted to be
I wrote 3, one was a wrestler
two was a singer and the other was swamp thing
Now we choose careers because we want things
As we get older, society on shoulders
Holding our dreams hostage and turning us ever colder
I do it for the dreamers, it's not a newsflash
fuck the non-believers, you got a heart don't ever lose that
Chorus
Don't you ever lose your heart man, Don't you ever lose your heart
This world'll try to tear you apart, Don't you ever let them take your heart
When everything is falling apart, take a second and go back to the start
Don't you ever lose your heart, don't you ever lose heart

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
