OLD CODE - Selby Todd & Apalachee Don
Old Code
Verse 1
(Selby Todd)
Saddles up his worries. Pain in his eyes.
Searching for the answers to the cold that lies inside.
He turns in all directions searching for the light.
His shadows lone reflection leads him through the night.
(Apalachee Don)
Im a Hard head. Backwood son of a gun
I stomp through the valley of the rising sun.
Raw when I spit like Grit up under my gums.
Poison in my veins . Venom in my tongue.
True to the code. Ready to lock and load.
Better check ya facts. I’m a big dawg.
Hangin in the holler. Baptized in the water.
Posted in the sticks where the law don’t bother.
Stand on my roots. I’m an an old school hustler.
Get it from the bottom. There’s a reason I don’t trust ya.
Down in the slums. Digging through the Swamplands.
Hustle off the muscle. It’s supply and demand.
Hook
Raised by that old code
Came up from the water
Cut teeth on a wishbone
Somebody shoulda told ya
Barefoot in a corn row
Stay off in a holler.
Been to the crossroads
It aint what they told ya
Verse 2
(Selby Todd)
His face is filled with stories of a poor man’s soul.
Hands completely calloused. Hardened to the bone.
He’s roaming through the country. That’s become home.
He rides the trail alone. That’s what has made him strong.
(Apalachee Don)
I’m a heavyweight. No. Literally Ima heavy weight.
Holding up the country. Ima bumpkin. With the beat bumpin.
Old soul. I was born in the code.
Call me Crème De la crème. Top of the totem pole.
A-Lister. Made a spot of my own.
Put a Queen in my corner. Right next to the king’s throne.
Strapped the kingdom on my back and carried it through the battlefield.
All for my people Ima finish the drill.
Standing in the blaze. Blowing amnesia haze.
Gotta an alligator mouth. Cut through ya like razor blades.
Certified product from them down south hills.
Dirt road prophet. The “Real Deal Holyfield.
Hook
Raised by that old code
Came up from the water
Cut teeth on a wishbone
Somebody shoulda told ya
Barefoot in a cornrow
Stay off in a holler.
Been to the crossroads
It aint what they told ya
Bridge
(Selby Todd)
When the goings gettin tough. You feel like giving in.
Keep your head above the floods. Put your back against the wind.
Remember where you’re from. Where you are today.
You were taught to never give up. Go on and find another way
Hook
(SelbyTodd)
Raised by the old code
Baptized in the waters
Been to the crossroads
Somebody shoulda told ya
Barefoot in them cornrows.
I stay off in a holler.
I done been to them crossroads,
And it ain’t what they told ya.
Somebody shoulda told ya.

I enjoy and support many musicians on YouTube, especially the independent artists here. I make these videos to help share their music with others on my channel who may not of heard of them. If you like the songs go check out the artists links I always post with these videos.
***** I OWN NO RIGHTS TO THIS MUSIC. I AM JUST A FAN SHARING IT WITH MY SUBSCRIBERS.
I make these videos with already posted hiking footage from the channel for a few of reasons.
FIRST... it allows me to practice my video editing. That is why you may see me sometime splicing the same hiking footage up in different ways into different music videos... I am practicing and trying tp improve upon on what I did in the past with it... I'm learning.
SECOND... I really enjoy music and like sharing artists here whose music I support and listen to on YouTube with my subscribers who may not have heard of them. This helps to drive some welcomed traffic to these artists channels which if you like the music I hope you will subscribe to them. I don't monetize these videos. They artists or their labels often do. I just enjoy making them.
THIRD... They advertise my DOG CHANNEL to people who might not otherwise stumble upon it on YouTube. Making videos with several types of music extends that reach.
***For those new subscribers who may not be aware, but enjoyed this video.... I have a playlist of over 100 music videos similar to this using a variety of music on my channel...
