"No Disrespect" lyrics
Kobie Dee & Oddisee Lyrics
As I think about the past is like you live and you learn
See these lessons that I taught produce the blessings that I've earned
The bridges that I built compared to ones I should have burned
Now perhaps it filled a few urns, instead it's ashes in a urn
Of old habits is dead and gone, when dies in another's born
New life in another form, no mask that I've ever worn
I'm simply what you see and there's no doubt it's what you get
No method to this madness man, I'm coming for their neck
It's best that you protect
And watch as I dissect every rapper on their set claiming that they be the best
And I'm a stranger to the conflict but peace is what I seek
Some people look to violence over difference of belief
I'm just trying to show my sons and daughter what I see
And that's a world that's for the taken full of opportunities...
No disrespect, I'm just trying to keep my team straight
If ever second you can check it on a replay
I ain't flexing on a record, this is dream chasing
In a minute's thing forever but not a brief stay
If you think I'm getting better then you right
Got the vision of a winner in my sight
It's a struggle in the tunnel to the light
When you get it, give it back, it's only right
As I think about my future, my life and where it's going
I start to write my verse and take a trip to the unknown
Words I spit the picture of the image that I'm showing
Keep the vibes forever flowing, channel energy I'm rowing
Down a stream of different sceneries, I'm sightseeing
Make me think about the legacy I could be leaving
Trying to navigate this world of things that I believe in
I look my daughter in the eyes and I can see the reason
A storyteller, gathering the force of information
A special combination, facts and my imagination
Vivid kind of images that show us as a nation
And the problems that we're facing and solutions I'm replacing
How we think and what we do, what's fake and what is true
And how we change ourselves, I guess it all depends on you
Some people like the old and are resistant to the new
But if you opened up your mind then you could see this vision too
No disrespect, I'm just trying to keep my team straight
If ever second you can check it on a replay
I ain't flexing on a record, this is dream chasing
In a minute's thing forever but not a brief stay
If you think I'm getting better then you right
Got the vision of a winner in my sight
It's a struggle in the tunnel to the light
When you get it, give it back, it's only right
See these lessons that I taught produce the blessings that I've earned
The bridges that I built compared to ones I should have burned
Now perhaps it filled a few urns, instead it's ashes in a urn
Of old habits is dead and gone, when dies in another's born
New life in another form, no mask that I've ever worn
I'm simply what you see and there's no doubt it's what you get
No method to this madness man, I'm coming for their neck
It's best that you protect
And watch as I dissect every rapper on their set claiming that they be the best
And I'm a stranger to the conflict but peace is what I seek
Some people look to violence over difference of belief
I'm just trying to show my sons and daughter what I see
And that's a world that's for the taken full of opportunities...
No disrespect, I'm just trying to keep my team straight
