[Intro: DJ Premier (ODB samples)]
Rest in peace, Ol' Dirty
"See my name is the ODB"
"The-the-the-the-the Ol' Dirty Bastard"
"Wu-Tang, Wu-Tang, Wu-Tang, Wu-Tang"
"Roc-a-Fella, Roc-a-Fella, Roc-a-Fella, Roc-a-Fella"
"Wu-Tang, Wu-Tang"
[Chorus 2X: Ol' Dirty Bastard w/ samples cut]
As I poppppppppppp, shotttttttttttttttttts
As I po-a-opppppppp, shotttttttttttttttttts
[Ol' Dirty Bastard]
'86 was the year that it started
Crack hit the states, and my hood got to poppin'
Back then, you had to catch it with narcotics
Without a doubt, Brooklyn had the hardest projects
Nowadays, if a nigga say you got it
You be sitting in the country, with like 3 or 4 charges
Young when started, but I had a talent
To get this past and drunk, cuz I took it as a challenge
The older niggas game me much as I can handle
Cop the eagle, started jackin' with the green New Balance shit
I'm feelin' clean, I was only thirteen
With the heavy starch, on my Bugle Boy Jeans
My name's spelled right on my four finger ring
It was Dirt then, cuz McGirt you ain't seen
"The Ol' Dirty Bastard"
"Rollin...."
[Chorus 2X w/ more samples cut]
[Ol' Dirty Bastard]
Toe to toe, I scrap with the best
If I spit ten rhymes, nigga, nine gon' connect
If you in front of 1 or 2, I respect
Cuz I probably just forgot, and wrote it strictly for my set
Wu-Tang, man I love my set
Niggas comin' up here, this is where the G's at
Look here, more money, more problems, my ass
You'se a naive cat, if you still believe that, for real
That's a trick to try to keep you where you at
All content, while niggas ridin' Bentley's and Maybach
Think I'mma lay back, playa, forget it
First hundred G's, I see, nigga, I'm tryin' to flip it
And that's some real shit, not just a lyric
Drop a couple open cases, not too specific
Niggas out here tryin' to prove whose the realest
It's ok to pop shit, but come a little different
"Tell 'em who the fuck I be..."
"The ODB"
"Tell 'em who the fuck I be..."
"The-the-the Ol' Dirty Bastard"
[Chorus 2X w/ more samples cut]
"Wu-Tang, Wu-Tang, Wu-Tang, Wu-Tang"
"Roc-a-Fella, Roc-a-Fella, Roc-a-Fella, Roc-a-Fella"
"Wu-Tang, Wu-Tang"
"See my name is the ODB"
[Chorus to fade w/ more samples cut]
Ol' Dirty Bastard, stage name of Russell Tyrone Jones (1968-2004), was an American rapper considered one of the pioneers of the Wu-Tang Clan and an iconic figure in the hip hop scene of the 1990s. Born in Brooklyn, New York, Jones distinguished himself for his rap style characterized by fast flows, intricate rhymes, and often provocative and self-destructive lyrics. His debut album, *Return to the 36 Chambers: The Dirty Version*, released in 1995, is considered a classic of the genre. Ol' Dirty Bastard collaborated with numerous artists, including Method Man, RZA, and Ghostface Killah, contributing to defining the Wu-Tang Clan's sonic identity. Among his most famous tracks are *Shimmy Shimmy Ya*, *Brooklyn Zoo*, and *Got Your Money*. His life was marked by personal and legal problems, which culminated in his tragic death at the age of 35.
