Oddisee - Belong To The World

Walk around the city by my lonesome
Only what I see is what I flow front
Designated faces in a place to be
Get it where they fitted, tryina stip in which spaces mean
But then I see them, my unique is just another fish
So grow feet and walk a beach how most done
Evolving at a speed it's hard to see I'm in the chill land
I be in the lobby in a party where I feel strange
Never was the cool dude, never was the suave guy
More like the eye guy, wondering women go to
Never wanted to be the type that they were used to
Now I'm flying somewhere overlooking a dream
And being overlooked there one is for my esteem
Now I get a lot of lights like I'm the one they go to
Something I couldn't see when I belong to the state
Separated from the clicks then I created the team
It was me and Mohamed out of seas the squad
But you preaches ain't tune but they gave me a job
Tried selling my ???
It was like here you are, you smart

I'm tryina break out
But I'm tryina do the opposite
Try and put me in a box already in the globe
So I don't get offended by the thinking of the old
Way I matter is where I go
And the circle and the fame
It's overseas maybe two games
Not enough but too much changed
Too much strange, but we accord in the middle
Forever lost in the process choose between
Somebody asked what do you claim?
I belong to the world!

Save your seat for the quiet one
I'm working hard to make my ones able
There ain't a place that I don't call home
Just dropping beats at the less table
Now you can buy one, gotta keep my front stable
The western world that meet is all wrong
And Babylon becoming unstable
The one to die young
I'm making moves like the ice cap
Staying hot with a tide trap
Never spoil I don't want ladies
If you can find one, take it that they all wrong
I don't feel it on the unshady
And liberate you from the wall streets you occupied
There's a lot of sky and underneath it a lot of pie
And you don't need a bigger plate just a smaller stomach
You fed up on the feeling once that you can vist you want it
Well go and get it be another statistic
Get up more than you can chew and stay you started the phonic
I don't go that route, I don't hang with them
I just go around the globe but not the turf to stunting
To keep it all in house, the world is my backyard
I'm tryina break my fence, nah

I'm tryina break out
But I'm tryina do the opposite
Try and put me in a box already in the globe
So I don't get offended by the thinking of the old
Way I matter is where I go
And the circle and the fame
It's overseas maybe two games
Not enough but too much changed
Too much strange, but we accord in the middle
Forever lost in the process choose between
Somebody asked what do you claim?
I belong to the world!

What's the click, what's the crew, what's the gang
To a brother who be doing this thang
All along I belong to my name
That's the only set of claim I ain't bothered by the politics fiends
I perform, they put on, that's the nom
Try and get me on a song like balling in, shoot it at
Then they got the wrong mike, this the wrong platform
Thinking bout the wrong life
This is for the people I'm just tryina cut a path for
Try and make some music for the future that will last long
Done they never asked for
I'ma get it to 'em, I'ma get it to ‘em
High and the tunes will forever I'ma live through them
Word the Bob Marley, he put memories in melodies
It's relevant, presiding he made it through the 70's
That right there was telling me the classic way to better be
And if it ain't then you don't deserve to represent the pedigree
Part of the solution or part of the problem
All I'm often parts in the process evolving
What are you evolved in? answer my calling
I belong to the world!
