speed on the beat - oriole magic lyrics

[verse one: speed on the beat]
had to do this, even if it’s corny
to go show love for the home team
delivered me out of some dark days
from 33rd down to opacy, see…
i love the o’s even when they suck
why? cause their magic never, ever gives up
or out on me. so, come on team! keep ringing the wins up
used to be like ben mcdonald–a touted rookie with fire stuff
but didn’t know how to harness it…so i had to go and pack it up
now a couple years later, i’m cal ripken
mixed with adam, and a lot of heart
rap game’s eric davis
even some sort of cancer couldn’t shut me up
call me robinson, i’m frank with the bars
when i swing, hit the stars
and the moon, i hit it there…
like the lottery signs at camden yard
always got my orange and black on
even when the ravens are on
because this is birdland, and coexistence is our freedom
i’m a jockey for the bars, but i’m never in the briefs
sorry, mr. palmer, but i had to make that riff
the magic’s got me, and it’s never letting go
now give it up one time for our orioles

[hook]
[sample of “oriole magic]

[verse two: speed on the beat]
this is a remix to an old cl-ssic, dudes
but i’m using it in fair enough use, so please don’t sue
or throw me in the ocean hon, no crabs for me
and not every baltimorean talks like they show on tv
so, don’t let them fool you, by all the “dugs” and “ayos”
or the pigtown accents, in this bawldamore
diversity is the key, and we have tons of it
the fact i’m rapping on oriole magic should show this man!
feel it happen, let it take you over…when you enter here
it’s not the cleanest city no, but the water’s kind of clear
i don’t like natty boh, though, gimme a 151
but i still rep 410 like a prodigal son…
still got my raffie cards, even though he’s kind of shunned
and though robbie went in as a jay, i still love alomar
and lemme take it back, for those that didn’t know
mr. october? technically twice an oriole

[verse three: speed on the beat]
third verse, had to go switch up son to go get this one done
i was raised on half-and-halfs and marty b-ss
had crushes on kellye lynn and lori pinson
al sanders was like my dad, so when he p-ssed
i heard about it during an orioles game, if i can properly recall
my actual father was blown, since they kinda looked alike
guess he thought his time was up, or close to, so the fight
that he had, it began to grow, until his body crumbled
we weren’t ever too close, but the moment he died muddled
a great day, i saw the pain in my mom’s eyes
yeah, he was old, but still doesn’t make it any less of a surprise
one of the best memories i have of papa speed
was him taking me to oriole park
so, if you want another reason why i love this team?
for better or worse, they are ingrained in my heart
my first love…even before raquel
and i’ll stick by their side, through heaven and h-ll…
