OTHERSIDE

(album: WASHED ASHORE - 2021)

Beach boy in this hoe

From hopelessness to going big
I went thru hell and rose to this
Now the checks is real and shows is lit
I kept going coulda chose to quit
Ya

You know the vibes put the city on the map
If you from the other side then you know it for a fact
Marathon put the beach on my back
And till my legs quit working I'ma keep running laps

Everybody in the juice know wassup
Beach boy got the juice in the cup
Models hanging out the roof going nuts
Yelling 714ever I ain't ever switching up
Showed love it won't ever be enough
Middle finger in the sky I ain't ever gave a fuck
If I showed you things I usually do
What's old to me is new to you

I'm from other side of town
Thought you knew when ya met me
I'm from the other side of town
You could tell by my lingo
I'm from the other side of town
Across the tracks you could catch me ya
I'm from the other side of town

Ya, I came along played the game
Made some songs and changed my name
You had cared when no one did
And I still don't know how I rose to this but
I could show you where I'm from take ya way back
You could see how far I've come and where I stayed at
When we was living in the crib behind the train tracks
I never thought I would've slid up in a Maybach

A past like ours makes ya envy
When everybody goes back home
Whole life you been looking at the glass half empty
I was thinking it was half full

Got too many options to make my mind up
Don't know what's poppin let me remind ya
I ain't tryna get involved know I told you this before
I'm just tryna do it all before my times up

I'm from other side of town
Thought you knew when ya met me
I'm from the other side of town
You could tell by my lingo
I'm from the other side of town
Across the tracks you could catch me ya
I'm from the other side of town

Remember me a legend when I die
I just hope I go to heaven not gone lie
Know where to find me if they ever wanna try
I'll be on the Northside of the pier getting high
Ya I really came up from the beach
That's why I always got a pair of chucks on my feet
On god I got bands in the jeans
I'm the reason that ya girl got sand in her sheets

Can't say that I never told a lie
But I'ma always keep it real with myself
At this point I'm just glad to be here
I did good with the cards I was dealt
Lord knows I wasn't supposed to make it

One chance and I chose to take it
I'm from the other side of town
