20syl - Ongoing Thing feat. Oddisee Lyrics

[Intro]
Keep it on the level
Keep it on the level (2x)
(Whoa-oh)
I'm climbing up the
Keep it on the level (2x)
I'm climbing up the ladder
While you're in need of a shovel
(Whoa-oh)

[Verse 1: Oddisee]
I could do this all day
I could do this all night

I could do this all day, I could do this all night
All month, all year, for my whole entire life
Who you know got a home, but seem to live on the road
Lookin' like a black gypsie, in the Caravan, arose
Music for the people, I used to rap on the train
Now I rap on a stage and I'm used to capital gain
I ain't asking for change, I'm good at coining a phrase
What I want is more than ever and never to fade away
Is that too much to ask? Good, cause I ain't askin'
Already into action, I'll have your answer retracted
So stay up out my business, it's crowded enough with me
You added as just a witness I’d rather not even see
I'm good with the folks around me, get from 'round me
Before we commence to clowning, yeah
Keep it on the level, yeah, keep it on the level
I'm climbing up the ladder while you in need of a shovel
Skedaddle

[Hook]
I'm climbing out the-
Keep it on the level (2x)
I'm climbing out the-, I'm-I"m climbing out the- (What)
Keep it on the level (2x)
I'm climbing up the ladder, while you in need of a shovel
Yo, skedaddle

[Hook 2: Odisee]
Don't give it to me easy, I like a little challenge
Winning feels better when you take a little damage
Slow learning, fast earning, stay burning, wheels turning
It's a ongoing, ongoing, ongoing thing

"don't give it to me easy I like a little challenge, winning feels better when you take a little damage" this line is pure motivation.

[joeynielsen]

2022 anyone??? Still remember the summer I found this once it first dropped. Timeless.

[SigmaSundayYT]

Sorry, this isn't music
This is art

[ApeironSound]

Dat flow. On repeat. I can do this all day, I can do this all night.

that godlike feeling when you remember these good old songs and came back to listen them again

[mynjiun]

Its been 4 years and to this day I still say the line "don't give it to me easy, I like a little challenge. Winning feels better when you take a little damage"

[SixSixTay]

It’s seriously been 9 years since I’ve heard this song. Ive had some of the best times of my life to this song, or it playing in the background. I forgot all about it, & now that I’ve found it, I’m just sitting here bumping it in my headphones just revisiting those times…Man…time just flys right on by..😌

[Parkourbg]

The chorus is straight up motivation.
Hope you all achieve your goals in 2022, this is our year guys!

[Eu]

*_After years and years, people will wonder what did we listen during the Corona pandemic._*





*_For people from the future: You have great taste in music!_*

[therealdiemond]

Damn! That kick & bass are mixed to perfection!

Odisee is an extremely talented low key rapper.

It’s crazy that I JUST discovered this song right now, what have I been missing out on for the past 10 years 😭🔥

[imsamiurrahman]

MKBHD has really an amazing taste of dance music

[devils_]

The lyrics, the beat, everything is just in sync. it works together better than the human body. so seamless

[Zimojeh]

The nostalgia listening to this… call of duty days gaming all day trickshotting and sniping. Man those were the days…😢

[Truebro]

First heard this song about 9 yrs ago and its still one of my favouite songs to listen to, even in 2024.

[hasanbaraki]

This is one of those songs you just can’t get tired of💯🔥
