Obie Trice - Average Man Lyrics






[Verse 1]
Hey yo I'm focused, it's the locust
O. Trice is holding the soldiers, the prognosis
Probably why I rose from zero to hope
Cause I was wide eyed and open nosed on my approach (nigga)
Hold the toast you provoke
44 Snub hugs my scrotum when I roll
Yes I hold my own
Swifty think you be Debo's clone, I'm aiming
Watch 'em switching to Damons
And next Friday I can bet you's a changed man
When them thangs in hands, it's not a game man
I ghost ya, I bring ya much closer to Jehovah
Definition of a soldier, I told ya
I .. hold the toast when I approach
It's close at all times by my side in the holster
O-ster roast ya, make me blow my composure
Pop [gunshot] it's all over, when the fo fo blows and goes [gunshot]

[Chorus]
When I'm up in the club
And these niggaz they wanna act tough
'Til they get plugged
Watch them bullets go [bullet shot]
Now you touched from a slug
Hugging the streets like you in love
Your heart race like [flatline]
The ambulance arrive [police siren]
They rush you to the spinner, flying by my ride
Engine like [engine revs], homie you just died
Your family through crying, I pulled off a crime
Just as quick as ..

[Verse 2]
Lose your face, in a fool's race
I put my tune first nigga, you was in second place
And second place just means you didn't react with haste
And this differentiates life where murder being the case
And since murder was the case, it just means niggas erase
Another black mother can't eat the food on her plate
Cause she ain't got the taste of raisin you was a waste
Such a short span young man, sit at your wake
First I'm a man, second I'm five eight, with size and weight
Won't give a nigga the upper hand
Cause when I pop [gunshot], I get a 's up like Barry Sand
Sit in the can, you never ran like Barry Sand
Obie ain't playing, Obie got a plan
And the plan is NOT to be laying in Earth's land
I will POP before the can and Earth slaying
You get SHOT for playing me less than a man motherfucker

[Chorus]

[Verse 3]
Niggaz get it twisted, liquor make 'em envision
that gangsterism is disrespecting a niggaz wishes
Which is all the touch talk in front of bitches
Yeah you fifteen deep, the Desert E a give ya stitches
And I can be all the bitches and hoes you wanna
But I warn ya the glock could make it hot as California
You be propped on the corner, flesh meeting the coroner
O's and quarantine, cause no hoes in need, is no hoes in need
Niggaz take advantage 'til I manage to pull that hammer out
They start scattering, I'm no gangster, I'm a average man
but be damned if I let 'em do me savage man
Before that I'm strapped and will challenge him
Cocked back and that [gunshot] gat will damage them
It's not a act, this is fact, this is how I'm programmed
This is me, what I'm about, this who I am motherfucker

[Chorus]

Obie Trice Average Man Comments
  1. e.... ....

    Underrated song, underrated album.

  2. N.... D....

    So glad I grew up on this shit. Kids now a days don't have a fuckin clue.

  3. 9.... r....

    Even gangsters are average or pretty much less than.
    Those that control the World Bank and International Monetary Fund are the real Don's.
    They can get whole nations caps pilled and make em go hungry for generations. Nigga ask Yemenis, Honduras and Haitians. With one phone call they can give a million kids aids whilst they sip finest reserve scotch on permanent vacation.

  4. C.... B....

    This was probably one of the best albums to come out of Shady Records. Completely under the radar.

    Marshall has had a problem in recent years finding someone like Obie, who for whatever reason didn't come back for that many features. Word on the street is the Bush administration had Proof killed for a lot of the things Em was saying publicly.

    It took years for Em to recover to his original form, he didn't let anyone down I might add. Recovery was his best album, in my opinion.

    I'm one of his original fans, my first concert in New Orleans Halloween 2000. He was upset about a private notebook he'd lost in an airport. He said Britney Spears was on the cover.

    Jesus, what the fuck happened to time?

  68. T.... G....

    Still banging in 2018- Super underrated Album- Eminem and Shady records from late 90's to 2005 were on fire.

  69. q.... ....

    great song. dare i say... gangster

  70. a.... p....

    All over this album at the moment, shame this album was released same time around get rich or die trying, em and shady records should have waited until at least 2004 to release this, get obi hyped up for at least an extra year while 50’s album does its thing, promote obi and release a mix tape during the year, get him on a few singles, then boom release the singles from this album closer to 2004 and then I reckon this album could have had more recognition than it did. Simply just due to 50 releasing get rich or die trying in 2003 before obi.

  71. A.... A....

    OBIE SPONSERS ME FOUR SILLY JOSHUA RICHARD JUSTIN MYSELF THANK YOU OBITRICE 2018

  72. S.... S....

    "Now I can be all the bitches and hoes you wanna but i warm ya the Glock can make it hot as California ." Damn

  91. M.... R....

    hardest song on the album

    M.... R....

    @Graz you're somewhat correct. A fact is I agree we all die one day is the hardest but only because it was a straight beef track with only battle rhymes really. Another fact is that it's debatable that this track is the album's hardest track due to the album being Obie's and not a squad one. While I do agree with you on which is hardest this track may just edge our opinions out due it being of such a personal and sincere nature.

    M.... R....

    @Joshua 'CHUBBZ' Gardler I appreciate the props but, again, people need to learn what a "fact" is. I also don't think that it matters if you consider something a "squad track" or whatever... The original comment was made about the album in general. Now, if you said an "Obie Trice solo track"... Then I would have to agree with you.

    M.... R....

    @Graz I dont see how u didn't comprehend that I meant because of it being an obie solo album that means this is the hardest track. Smh I know what a fact is and spoke only those until my comment to the subjective part which is that whatever is the hardest track depends on the individual doing the listening. That's another fact. I appreciate that you appreciated the compliment but the rest of the comment slid past because it seems like your preoccupied with wanting to be right and saying "you need to learn what a fact is". Just saying that sentence doesn't make it feel like you know what one is. I've presented my opinions now I'm going to end this with let's just enjoy how dope this album is. Peace and love.

    M.... R....

    @Joshua 'CHUBBZ' Gardler you know instead of typing all that out to insult me, you could just kept it to a simple sentence insulting me. But, anyway, whatever. As for the album, it's good, but wouldn't really call it dope, necessarily. Too many throw away tracks.

    M.... R....

    adrenaline rush
