O’hene Savant
Lit
[Verse 1]
I gotta get back
Wait, ’86 that
‘cause I been back
Plus I’m ‘bout to bring four years after ’86 back
Zig zag through the era like Tazmania
Can’t believe flows that I’m thinking up, in my mind’s eye
Gettin’ green like Popeye, ‘stead of chicken and greens from Popeye’s
And them pot pies in the microwave oven, back when I couldn’t get it buzzin’
Wouldn’t sell drugs and resort to something yet I wasn’t
I was a role model for the young ’uns
Even those hustling used to say, “O, you got talent, so you need to stay from around us”
I made a choice that I made not because I’m no coward, because I love blacks more than dollars
This album’s so lit

[Refrain]
I am so lit
I am so lit
I am so lit
So lit now

I am so lit
I am so lit
I am so lit
So lit now
[Verse 2]
They ain’t believe me, ’til they see me and Jeff on tv
Why family gotta be the last to support?
Guess it’s ‘cause they got vision like Stevie
But I got inner vision like Stevie, Parliament in a sense, I am knee deep in the music
Plus I grew up playing Q-Tip so the way I do this is easy
True story, labels wouldn’t do nothing for me
So I kinda smirk when they call me
Now I got the fame, next is the glory
Next is the touring, [?] ’til they deport me
Surely my time will come is what they say
All gods have their day, no one can say I didn’t get this from my focus
Now they notice all the dopeness ‘cause I’m so lit

[Hook]
To everybody that’s lit like me
Let the world know that you just might be
A legend in the making
It is no mistaking what you can attain or you just might see

To everybody that’s lit like me
Let the world know that you just might be
A legend in the making
It is no mistaking what you can attain or you just might see

[Refrain]
I am so lit
I am so lit
I am so lit
So lit now
I am so lit
I am so lit
I am so lit
So lit now

[Verse 3]
I don’t identify with the industry ‘cause the ego I see do not interest me
Independently I build a catalog and read catalogs a year like what that’ll cost
Late nights with the shrimp fried rice back when they used to get five mics
Meanwhile bills in my head in this rundown house, hoping I don’t get bit by mice
Feeling like a failure, looking at these damn canned goods but I know bars is the answer
So I kept writing, playing and though I wasn’t praying, I kept saying I guarantee I make it out the basement
While everybody watching, [?] successful, I bet you I make it through the cesspool
‘cause I’m special and everybody knows this
‘cause everybody knows that I’m so lit

I’m lit, lit, I’m fire
I’m lit, y’all, that’s fire
Y’all know O is fire
I’m lit, yup, I’m fire

I’m lit, lit, I’m fire
That’s right, O is fire
Everybody knows that I’m fire
I’m lit, y’all, I’m, I’m
[Hook]
To everybody that’s lit like me
Let the world know that you just might be
A legend in the making
It is no mistaking what you can attain or you just might see

To everybody that’s lit like me
Let the world know that you just might be
A legend in the making
It is no mistaking what you can attain or you just might see

[Refrain]
I am so lit
I am so lit
I am so lit
So lit now

I am so lit
I am so lit
I am so lit
So lit now
