Hiphop used to mean something, and Odub believes that it still can. Inspired by real life, he is more interested in making good music that people can relate to
Hip Hop has gotten too hard core. Simple. I take it down a notch....back to the days when rappers had more to talk about than guns, money, jewels, cars and women. Rap with a message, and well, some just for the flow of it.

Lyrics
[intro] Yeah Come here Take my hand Walk with me [verse 1] Can you look further, past the grimy veneer? This patina has seen a lotta bad years Sadness, tears, madness, fears Lets scrape it all clear, see what's under here I'm at 2nd and Evans, it only stretches 7 Blocks (It's the whole world to me) Like directly from heaven, a gift I was given It's dirty (It looks like a pearl to me) And certainly, I'm not alone There's 14 of us at the bus stop call this home So no matter where the bus drops me today Back here is where I find my way. (C'mon follow me) [hook] No matter where you stop when you leave this block You not gonna forget how hard you fought Even when it makes you proud of what you not It's part of you now And no matter what you keep when you leave these streets You'll take victory, you'll take defeat You've heard and seen everything you need It's part of you now [verse 2] There's somethin about this place it must just be the spirit Listen close, maybe you could hear it In the rhythm of the kickball game goin on in the street Neighborhood hide em and go seek 1st Street part, basketball courts Girl you're a lil young to be wearin those shorts Watch your back around the dudes hangin by the corner store The gang who ain't sure what they still bangin for Old man Dan-Dan, the pop bottle man, he's harmless He's just tryin his hardest, still he's homeless And I don't know if it's dope he's on but he's hard not to notice You could probably find that size kicks you been watchin for At Laswell's, that what he goes to the auction for So he could sell you a pair of shoes for 50 cent Make you proud of how your money was spent, now [hook] [bridge] It's the park, the lights The dark, the nights We start the fights With heart despite What's wrong, what's right? This song just might Belong, if I could get my mind just right. It's the park, the lights The dark, the nights We start the fights With heart despite What's wrong, what's right? This song just might Belong, if I could get my mind just right. [verse 3] They say it ain't where you from it's where you at I say it ain't what you wear, it's what's under your hat And when you start with facts and then your sun went black Use the spark of imagination to counteract You bouncin back, in the 88 Regal, bumpin Trunk on rattle tryin to show these people somethin 6 Vanillaroma trees on the rearview Usin what you left behind you to steer you. [hook]
