Westside Lyrics

I'm from the westside

That's the grimy side

So play it safe

Them young kids taking shit

Like they can't find a better way

You ever met a person who ain't scared to hit the grave

You see the demon in they eyes through a picture frame

It's a country town

So them niggas be in the field

We come from nothing

So the mentality what it is

How you expect change when nobody wont change shit

The racism be hid behind the lies and politics

My side of town a lil bit different

You got to stay ready

Young niggas got straps on them

Like they been in the military

You cant even live peaceful

You got to stay focused

I seen people lose they life over something super petty

You ever seen ya partner lose his freedom at the school

Niggas be jumping off the porch early be quitting school

Poverty took you in

So now you got to hustle

It's different when you inherit verse off the muscle

If you ain't one of us

You cant even go cross the tracks

They pull you over and ask you do you know where you at

How you make it out if nobody local got hope

You play sports in high school

But cant even go pro

The streets a common way most people eat

They get a job

But scamming or hustling week to week

You doing wrong

But it feel right

Trying to survive in these streets

A take over ya whole life

I'm from the westside

That's the grimy side

So play it safe

Them young kids taking shit like they can't find a better way

You ever met a person who ain't scared to hit the grave

You see the demon in they eyes through a picture frame

It's a country town

So them niggas be in the field

We come from nothing

So the mentality what it is

How you expect change when nobody wont change shit

The racism be hid behind the lies and politics

They hate it when you make it out

They want you to be slaves

But I'm not working for no pennies

I'm here to get paid

I came up seeing people begging

Don't want to be better

You want some freedom in ya life

Then go get you some cheddar

A teacher told me I wasn't gone be shit when I get older

I wanna see her out today to show her how life unfolding

God the greatest

So don't ever go judging his people

You might be up today

And next week yo ass barely eating

Its crazy how the tables turn

No that's for real for real

I seen some niggas turn to thousands from out the field

You think I'm capping bout the streets

But I'm just telling the truth

That's why I take my hat off whenever I'm in the booth

You got to get it

Got to find a way

Don't put it on the internet

Just stay up out the way

Watch what you tell people in the streets

They all don't want no better

They just tryna beg and leech

I'm from the westside

That's the grimy side

So play it safe

Them young kids taking shit

Like they can't find a better way

You ever met a person who ain't scared to hit the grave

You see the demon in they eyes through a picture frame

It's a country town

So them niggas be in the field

We come from nothing

So the mentality what it is

How you expect change when nobody wont change shit

The racism be hid behind the lies and politics
