[Sample (Multiple Elements): Dynasty - “Questions” (0:00)]
[Intro: O.C.]
Yeah! Uh! Rock on the boards, you know? Hahahahahaha! Yeah! Yeah, yeah. What, what? Yo, yo
[Verse 1: O.C.]
Whatever I write
I abide by, saying what I mean
Meaning what I stand by, O.C. be
Full of ambition, never giving up on them
Good things. I love my life, it’s worth living. When I feel
I’m at a standstill and things ain’t right
I look to my niggas for insight and vice versa
Adjust my thoughts, play it like sports (What?)
Grown-ass man, and I’m my own brand
It’s safe to say I’m too fly to waste away
Responsibilities give me a price to pay. Not
Living for today ‘cause half ain’t okay. I’m far
From greedy, but I want the whole entrée. Give me silk
Take away the satin. Prefer something beyond
Gold, I want platinum. I’d rather chill in the Bermudas
Than in Palm Springs under palm trees, with my lady
Sipping on the Malibu Bay Breeze
[Hook: O.C.]
It’s paradise
Y’all, how I’m living my life. It’s alright
Huh, stay getting that dough with my
Co-D’s, we split dough down the middle, so it’s
No greed—that’s how we proceed. Uh!
[Verse 2: O.C.]
Customized flow detailed top to bottom like a
Brand-new paint job, it’s hard not to spot ‘em
Far as I see things clearer than a psych’, I’m
Destined one day to see my name in lights. See, I
Do what I know at best to flow freely
Born to drop gems more exotic than Tahiti. O.C
I’m all for it. From state to state
Cross borders, even clear across waters
What I fuse, how I choose, the way I use
What I rock can’t be excused. Fur thoughts
Like a chinchilla, wordplay go down
Smooth as Genuine Draft, it’s just Miller
(I) Black Moses, Brooklyn God, Jehovah, and the Mayor
Some be thugs and some players
Crown a new king, G, bring me wine and grapes
On a plate, rubber bands on them things
Separate the gold and the ice, playing it safe
It bring smiles to the gold teeths in my face (Yeah)
Uh! Every day, I say my grace (Uh huh!)
[Hook: O.C.]
It’s paradise
Y’all, how I’m living my life. It’s alright
Huh, stay getting that dough with my
Co-D’s, we split dough down the middle, so it’s
No greed—that’s how we proceed. It’s paradise
Y’all, how I’m living my life. It’s alright
Huh, stay getting that dough with my
Co-D’s, we split dough down the middle, so it’s
No greed—that’s how we proceed. Uh!
[Verse 3: O.C.]
Yo, I’m
Deep-rooted, watch my ass for intruders, hate
To pack guns, but if provoked, I’ll shoot it
Request the best, I’ll blaze ‘em all. Kings
With crowns, I see many ways for y’all to fall
It’s my world, y’all, and I set the pace (Uh huh)
Come in my zone, niggas better bow face
Judging from the fact I’ve been in the game for some time
All I did was age like wine
Redefine what I’m after, did what I had to do
To break through and reserve another chapter
For all those years, I played the rear. Now
It’s time to step up a notch and boost the rep up
I’m pure skill like fishscale
Get you wide open, this here’s XL
I shall prevail in the game, feeling the flame grow
Stronger, can’t hold it back any longer
Right the wrong, whether storms ahead, Wild Life’s
In your area, we’re killing ‘em dead. No
Reason for treason, money don’t matter to the clique
When it comes to us, we break it even
[Hook: O.C.]
It’s paradise
Y’all, how I’m living my life. It’s alright
Huh, stay getting that dough with my
Co-D’s, we split dough down the middle, so it’s
No greed—that’s how we proceed. It’s paradise
Y’all, how I’m living my life. It’s alright
Huh, stay getting that dough with my
Co-D’s, we split dough down the middle, so it’s
No greed—that’s how we proceed. Word!
