I'm an average person who does hip hop and rap music on the side. I get very shy when I meet new people, but I'm very friendly and eager to help.

Story behind the song
I firstly made the beat on 6th September 2019, after listening to one of Lezter's instrumentals entitled 'CLOWN' on YouTube, originally planning to sell it on Beatstars, the beat's name being 'Strigoi', named after the troubled spirit in Romanian mythology.
Later on in the month, due to overspending that I strangely started doing that month, especially on instrumentals from Beatstars, I got into some financial issues, resulting in my bank being overdrawn.
During that time, I got into a state of depression over how careless I was being with my spending habits and wrote the lyrics to 'Oh My God' to take my mind off of my situation. Once I got back into the studio, I recorded my vocals over the original Lezter beat. Upon hearing how it sounded, I became proud of how it turned out. Then, after recording the vocals, I then remembered the instrumental I made based on that beat.
I decided to experiment by removing Lezter's beat and placing my own. I was pleasantly surprised by how the result sounded. After taking some time to work on other projects and helping my bank account recover, I re-recorded my vocals over the new beat, resulting in the song you hear now.
I then decided to release the song onto music retailers using LANDR. Thus, due to my efforts, the song was released onto iTunes, Apple Music, Spotify, Deezer & Tidal on 22nd January 2020, something that I'm proud of, even as I write this.
Lyrics
[Verse 1]
They don't want no smoke (Nah)
Made myself, no joke (Ay)
Comin' with the flames
Hate on me? That's such a shame. (Damn)
Drama comes 'round knocking (Ay)
Hang it out like washing (Ay)
Turn this booth to a battlefield
Then disappear like Copperfield. (Yeah)
Never switch on my family (Nah)
Mixing flows like alchemy (Ay)
Once you start your name up
Those around you, they change up
Only day one folks allowed (Yeah)
Others do it for the clout (Yeah)
When I'm itchin' for my dreams
All bitches, they flee the scene
[Verse 2]
When I hit 'em with the quickness
They fall down with the sickness
Ain't nobody 'round who can spit shit like this
They can try this;
Pickin' tracks like an ice pick
Strangle with a vice grip
Avoidin' all the nice shit
Real me, there's no pretendin'
Success, my only happy endin'
Workin' hard like an impulse
Leave 'em shocked at my results
Like-
[Hook]
Oh my god, he just made another track today
Oh my god, came in broke, then left the booth well paid
Oh my god, he just pulled another chick tonight
Oh my god, can't wait for the next hit he'll write
Oh my god, he just made another banger now
Oh my god, he's building up his own clout
Oh my god, there's another girl up upon his dick
Oh my god, he's gettin' money real quick
[Verse 2]
Don't have to play nice (Ay)
Hittin' like Ray Rice (Ay)
Every track I make is better
Keep your beef, I just want the cheddar. (Yeah)
Won't accept defeat (Nah)
With Lezter on the beat. (Yah)
Making myself a legacy
While you rot away with your jealousy
Make sure you don't forget this, (Ay)
Buildin' up like Tetris. (Ay)
Waste your time with faceless hate
You can vanish like David Blaine
I'm spitting words, quicker shit
Crossin' genres like the River Styx
On the dark side like Lucifer
Ring the bells like Tubular
[Verse 4]
I'm feelin' like a rockstar
Channelin' my dark half
'Till I'm in the hot charts
I know you're not hard
I'm a rising star
You're just a wannabe
You won't go far
You'll just stay under me
I'll keep on climbin' 'till I'm well known
Don't Spoil My Night, no Post Malone
I'm too busy, to catch your shots
Just sit back and react in shock
Like-
[Hook]
