Hans Otte
Hans Otte born Hans Günther Franz Otte (3 December 1926, Plauen – 25 December 2007, Bremen) was a German composer, pianist, radio promoter, and author of many pieces of musical theatre, sound installations, poems, drawings, and art videos. From 1959 to 1984 he served as music director for Radio Bremen. From the early 1960s onwards, Otte frequently presented contemporary experimental American composers in his Bremen radio festival pro musica nova, among them in those days completely unknown people like John Cage, David Tudor, Terry Riley, and La Monte Young. From 1959 on, Otte lived and worked in Bremen, Germany. His catalogue of works contains more than 100 works.
Hans Otte had studied in Germany, Italy, and at Yale University in the United States. His teachers included the composer Paul Hindemith and the pianist Walter Gieseking.
Some of Otte's works, especially his extended suites for solo piano, are characterized by very minimal means but are nevertheless quite subtle and sophisticated in their architecture and expression. Das Buch der Klänge (The Book of Sounds, 1979–82) and Stundenbuch (Book of Hours, 1991–98) are his best known works in this vein, and Otte often performed them himself. His last public recital was given in Amsterdam in 1999. Recordings of these works, with Otte as performer, are available on CD.

Today Or Tomorrow
by: Hones-t[Intro:]
Mr Comma I Be On My Way To Top
All My Grinding Now Stop
I Don't Really Ever Fuck Now
There's No Way Out If I Don't Make It Today
I'm a Make It Tomorrow
You're Dead
I'm a Make It Tomorrow
Come On Come On Come On
I'm a Make
I'm a Make
If I Don't Make it Today
I'm a Make It Tomorrow
[Verse 1:]
I'm a Make It Even If It Fucking Kills Me
Hard Work Dedicated Homie Please Feel Me
If I Wait longer my Chances Are Gonna
I Do It For My Baby And I Do It For My Mama
I Love Adriana And That's My Daughter
I'm Used To Everyday That's Why I Gotta Work Harder
I Don't Care About The Cars Don't Care About The Hoes
I Only Car About My Daughter Even Though It Doesnt Show
I'm So Damn Close I Could Motherfucking Smell It
This Is My Story The Only One To Tell It
Man Live It How You Want It But Know This Shit Don't Last Forever
Live It How I Live And Spit It Cause I'm Clever
Whatever I Ain't Lieing To Myself To Myself
I Think These Niggas Is Just Lieing To They Selves
Hones-T is My Not Name Hones-T is Who I Am
It's Time For Me To Be A Grown Man
[Chorus:]
Mr Comma I Be On My Way To Top
All My Grinding Now Stop
I Don't Really Ever Fuck Now
There's No Way Out If I Don't Make It Today
I'm a Make It Tomorrow
I'm a Make It Tomorrow
I'm a Make
I'm a Make
If I Don't Make It Today
I'm a Make It Tomorrow
[Verse 2:]
I Take A Beating Make Your Mind I Give It My Soul
I Got Years In The Game I'm 26 Years Old
Man I've Been Locked Up But Never Had To Do Time
That's Doesnt Mean I Never Ever Had To Do A Crime
Everybody Thinks They Know Me But I Swear That They Don't
Wanna Act Like Theyll Shoot Him But I Know That They Won't
I'm A Motherfucking G I Don't Care Whatcha Think
I Did Laps Around The Block Now I'm Back On The Brink
I Got Niggas That Who Crak Bitches Who Suck Duck
Brothers Who Dead And Gone This Is Fucked Shit
Speak From My Mind Man If This Is My Time
I Only Speak The Truth Homie I Ain't Wasting A Line
And I Ain't Wasting A Line See That's A Waste Of My Time
I Ain't Wasting My Time Bitch That's Like Wasting Of My Grind
Got A Lot On My Mind In Just Short Time
I'm a Spit What I Spit And Drop It Online
[Chorus:]
Mr Comma I Be On My Way To Top
All My Grinding Now Stop
I Don't Really Ever Fuck Now
There's No Way Out If I Don't Make It Today
I'm a Make It Tomorrow
I'm a Make It Tomorrow
I'm a Make
I'm a Make
If I Don't Make It Today
I'm a Make It Tomorrow
This Has To Be A Dream I Must Be I Must Be
I'm Rollercoast To Coast First Class Gonna Fly
Like A Raw Flush You Know My Fans Stay Suited
Like A CPU My Mind Stay Booted
This Ain't A Image This Is Me Man
All Day Everyday To The T Man
I'm In The Game Like Dorrough And I Rap Like Ripe
But I'm More Like Jason Cause My Girlfriends White
Mr Comma I Be On My Way To Top
All My Grinding Now Stop
I Don't Really Ever Fuck Now
There's No Way Out If I Don't Make It Today
I'm a Make It Tomorrow
I'm a Make It Tomorrow
I'm a Make
I'm a Make
If I Don't Make It Today
