SIDE OF TOWN 2025

(albüm: A Compton Story - 2023)

Grew up on that

Grew up on that side of town
Five percent tint when we ride around
Daddy played the part but I'm my mama's child
Buy her a house, bring them commas out
Got love for the hood, I miss the old days
Love for the block, I miss my old ways
Some of my happiest days, I was starving
Like a home-cooked meal in them apartments

Gotta get what I desire
I miss the way we beat the block
I'm sipping on this shot, I been thinking 'bout a lot
They focus on my back, the success that I got
But you know, it's us against the world
Shout out to my dog, I be feeling like I owe you
Said it did not mean it, no facade for the Pro Tools
Got it out the mud, take some lessons, I can show you

Aye, grew up on that side of town
Five percent tint when we ride around
Daddy played the part but I'm my mama's child
Buy her a house, bring them commas out
Got love for the hood, I miss the old days
Love for the block, I miss my old ways
Some of my happiest days, I was starving
Like a home-cooked meal in them apartments

Aye, my people all that I got
Say the best for the last, like the cream of the crop
It's like crabs in a barrel, gotta get up off the block
It's a race to the top, hail Mary like I'm 'Pac
I swear I seen it all, I be feeling like I'm John
Damn right, we ain't get it out the mud
I'm like, really?
No boys in the trap house with a blicky
Hoodstar always keep it gangster but she pretty, yeah

Grew up on that side of town
Five percent tint when we ride around
Daddy played the part but I'm my mama's child
Buy her a house, bring them commas out
Got love for the hood, I miss the old days
Love for the block, I miss my old ways
Some of my happiest days, I was starving
Like a home-cooked meal in them apartments
