Introduction

[Verse]
Allow me to introduce myself
My name is O to the W-E-N
Yo & the trouble begins
"Who's he, man?"
You don't know what you seeing?
Half gentleman, half demon
& I'm teeming & dealing with these restless questions
Bout what it means to be a human being
Uh
Y'all can't step to me, try
& you'll end up finding that my lyricism is empirically better than yours
& of my lyrical dexterity I'm veritably sure
I'm a straight, white playwright
Others play at night
While I stay up late & write
You can rarely get me to stay quiet
Or admit that I ain’t right
& one day I may take flight
Through that daylight to greater heights
I remain bright & my aim's tight
On the subway all the way down to Alewife
& I can't quite hide the flames bright
That the sight of my bae may ignite
& I'm half-British, y'all mad skittish
On the attack vicious with this rap shit
It's OE, the one & only
Been writing slowly & steadily since ‘03
But I wouldn’t‘ve have believed you if you told me
Back then that I’d be flowing on this dope beat
Comin from CT with this EP
Not throwing away my shot
& by the end man, pun intended
They gon be owin/Owen me a lot
Yeah
