lyrics

Oh my God!
Omar Offendum is here
Oh my God!
Watch out here comes Offendum!
Oh my God!
Omar Offendum is here
Ya Allaaaaah!
Nobody can upend him!

Omarvelously eloquent
More verses in my throat
Than fish can float inside a pelican’s
(Pelicans aren’t Kosher b/c the eat shellfish)
I keep it Kosher tho
The key to my forever relevance
Timeless as the oceans’ flow
Crossing the Bosphorus
Feeling prosperous with a goat in tow
Spit fire skill for real
Slow roast the ‘kid’ in Kosovo (Kid = Baby Goat)
قبضاي / A regular 2abadhay
That’s a tough guy
Serving wise guys a slice of my humble pie
In the form of a puffed eye & broken nose
Have you smiling for the camera
With my cane around your neck
Hold the pose
Strictly poetry — hold the prose
From the Pyrenees to the Poconos
More range than the Gran Telescopio in Spain (largest in the world)
The princes & the paupers
Newspapers & the Pope should know I am o-fficial
Oh fa sho
Did you catch that?
I’m hoping so
Remember the name!

Oh my God!
Omar Offendum is here
Oh my God!
Watch out here comes Offendum!
Oh my God!
Omar Offendum is here
Ya Allaaaaah!
Nobody can upend him!

Do I Offendum with my voice?
Offendum with my lyrics?
Offendum with my style?
Offendum with my spirit?
Offendum with my eloquence
Offendum with my elegance
Offendum with my sentiments
Offendum with my merit

Oh my God!
Omar Offendum is here
Oh my God!
Watch out here comes Offendum!
Oh my God!
Omar Offendum is here
Ya Allaaaaah
Nobody can upend him!

My bad ...
Did I step on your feet? — well I suppose
This wasn’t the day for open toes
I’m told I’ve the kinda look in my eye
That can leave a soul exposed
Wish I could see it for myself
But alas
How am I supposed to know?
You prefer my old sh*t?
Well I ask — How am I supposed to grow?
Let it go.
Shout outs to Joey though
More dynamic of a Shami duo
Nobody is ever really going to know
Boy no no — LA!
We flyin high
Your place is so below zero
Hasheesh (Grass) don’t grow
So we won’t go
I leave a stage in better shape
Than I received it tho
My people know

Omar Offendum is Here.
