Hmmm I was thinking of turning this into a track.. so I wrote it like one.. that’s why theres a hook.. n' shit...


The Other Side of the Story

1
Im tired of bein split, I might just need to quit
ya know OMB but not who John Nigro is,
i worked hard for this, i spent sleepless nights,
destroyed my brain just for a need to write,
almost six years now since i been pourin it out,
stepped up from freestyles 'n i'm recordin it now,
shit, people think i chase impossible dreams,
woulda never thought i'd rap but it was possible see,
ya gossip is weak, but i aint gonna lose my pride,
i choose my life 'n i choose to abuse the mic,
So yeah… I really spit, and yeah I nearly quit..
but that was at the start, when i was really shit,
'n now ya'll gonna judge me, if ya wanna thats just weak,
fuck please don't listen to my shit if ya just beef.

Hook
i've spit about everythin with the rhymes i write,
now i want ya'll know they guy behind the mic,
You don’t understand, lonely and broken I stand,
'cos none a ya'll really even know who I am..

people ask me, "OMB do you do what you spit?",
of course i don't, shit no i do it for kicks,
i can rap about whatever, maybe violence 'n greed,
but thats the joy of a mic, there aint no silencin me,
'cos i'm usually quiet, you know, the back a the crowd,
so this rap is my release 'n all the shackles are down,
give me a pen 'n a pad 'n i'll vent when i'm sad,
vent when i'm mad 'n then i'll even vent when i'm glad,
'n my friends'll tell me, i should try 'n get signed up,
but i just wanna rhyme without tyin my mind up,
freedom of speech is something One allows me,
'cos if you met john he'd probably shut his mouth see,
i'ma split personality, confusin i'm sure,
i got two alter ego's, yeah, who woulda thought,
ya'll can call me crazy, say i'm off a my head man,
i'm just tellin the truth, gettin it off a my chest, damn..
I got so much to tell, just hope my throat can bare it
But there's OMB 'n John, please don't compare 'em,
'n don't go runnin’ ya mouth, all sayin ya know me,
Just 'cos ya heard this track, doesn’t make you my homie
I do this for love and for glory, its what im tryna’ implore, see,
So this is just to give you the other side'a the story
