omar offendum, thanks joey - salaam lyrics
+old syrian music sample+
[verse 1]
yeah
i guess i finally hit my stride
mighta took some time
but i been enjoying the ride
16 years in la cultivating cali pride
palm trees, blues skies, up above highways low+rise
gotta love that pacific coast high
hit from both sides
the wind and the cliffs, oh my
befitting for an immigrant kid, so fly
worlds comforting to find
third culture kids collide
with the surf and remind us of something with [?]
the chance to reimagine what it means to be alive
on this earth with a purpose far beyond what might surface to the eye
a life in service of the very most high
+old syrian music sample+
[verse 2]
uh
the king of cool, call me dino crocetti or
eddie palmieri with the keys
door opener, traveling back in time
to restore hope in a pre+teen me with broken dreams and a knack for rhymes
by telling him an offendum is what he would soon grow to be
and that was more than fine
evolutionary, acrobatic, afro+asiatic, rap fanatic, revolutionary
‘m getting dramatic like turkish soap bars that are polished, laurel and olive
the moral to all this: imparting the knowledge since omar was in college
was simply and solely to surface hope (hope)
at times the code’s switching a slippery slope to schizophrenia
los shamgeles, a syrian
but i stray true to what i do, will never falter in any areas
simply altered and expanded
my audience is understanding what was possible for this arab man
lost in a hostile land
an apostle of the gospels of bilad al+sham
salam, ya salam
an apostle of the gospels of bilad al+sham
salam, salam
