about

Detroit MC, Nametag Alexander reconnects with Flint Producer, Nameless to present a music backdrop reminiscent of the sound from their 2013 “For Namesake” collab. The instrumental for “Know Bodiez” was previously featured on the 2017 “[Be]ats Original Vol. 4” project from Nameless. The beat was revisited by Nametag for what appears to be, a track that slightly touches on different perspectives toward Common Law marriage. While Nametag confirms that although “Know Bodiez” is not an official single, both he and Nameless have been crafting the next installment of their For Namesake series.

lyrics

Know Bodiez

Let it breathe for a minute, uh
Slum Village, what up, uh uh
Had a hook that went somethin’ like

Don’t sell yourself, to fall in love
With those things you do
Don’t sell yourself, to fall in love

With those things you do

She said that she can be, well grounded Keepin' me focused, make-sure I keep goin’ And not to deviate from my goal list, I'm

Grown ain't tryin’ to end up alone and old and-You ain't tryin’ to be a Wilona alone at home, What's on ya heart and ya mind? We can have

A discussion, say you havin' difficulty when it Come to trustin’, word-I listen and emphasize, ‘Cause I know how it get, them relationship

Goals bein’ missed as if the missle is Misaligned now the relationship’s a divide, now you left listenin to Solange, songs on re-peat,

Or either you decide to slide left when-Iistenin On Tidal or your Spotify, as you wishin’ to be The Apple of somebody’s eye, was I supposed

To be the next in line to be that guy, and if I am What-happens after this I-can’t be held Accountable, for your happiness or- you for

Mine, who decides the proper time, to settle Down, I mean honestly who can vouch and
Say they got this love shit figured out

Nobody, no-nobody, nobody
Nobody, Nobody...nobody
Nobody, no-nobody, nobody
Nobody, Nobody...nobody
Nobody, no-nobody, nobody
Nobody, Nobody...nobody
