Oswin Benjamin
Beat The Odds
[Verse 1: Oswin Benjamin]
Fuck it I know my rights
You can go on and on and try, but you can't pull the wool on my eyes. I know now
Fuck it I know my rights
We were living before religion, now a n***a find God when he's in prison, I know now
I know in my soul (that, that)
We come from gold (ah, ah)
But we rocking diamonds today, that shit belongs to us anyway
[Chorus: Oswin Benjamin]
We can go on, we can reach the stars
But you ain't gotta pick up a ball to knock it out the park, yeah
Everyday that goes by you can beat the odds
Ride around town and haters don't fuck with me, don't fuck with me
[Verse 2: Oswin Benjamin]
Fuck it, I'll give my life
Put my blood up on the chalice, we're kings of men, yeah
Fuck it, I'll give my life
You know that police don't give a fuck, that's why these n***as got gats tucked, and I know why
I know in my soul (that, that)
We come from gold (ah, ah)
But we rocking diamonds today, that shit belongs to us anyway
[Chorus: Oswin Benjamin]
We can go on, we can reach the stars
But you ain't gotta pick up a ball to knock it out the park, yeah
Everyday that goes by you can beat the odds
Ride around town and haters don't fuck with me, don't fuck with me
[Verse 3: Oswin Benjamin]
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Uh, Fred Hampton with my pants sagging
Martin Luther King with Michael Jordan rings and loaded clips for action
I middle finger and a big dick
To fuck the government, the system, and police with dog
You exit out the hood as a shooter, or jump shooter
Cooking crack in the kitchen, or follow Army recruiters
Fuck tuition and give all your money to Jake the Jeweler
Now they eyeing and they look like Rick the Ruler
[?] gold and the diamonds we kill them for, came from us my n***a
How many get put to sleep, before we wake up my n***a
And see the government one minute to give a fuck my n***a
We just a number to judges ordering quotas to make millions off us
Uh, we try to beat the odds and we get beaten down
Clouds looking Freddie Gray and they ain't clearing up 'till they Diablo
21 shots to [?], so the fuck you think that I'mma do
My vital signs are vital too
[Chorus: Oswin Benjamin]
We can go on, we can reach the stars
But you ain't gotta pick up a ball to knock it out the park, yeah
Everyday that goes by you can beat the odds
Ride around town and haters don't fuck with me, don't fuck with me
