Crooked I - The Other Side lyrics
rate meI paint a smile on my face
My mind is in a different place
They only see the light, but look behind the camera
And then you’ll find an answer on the other side
(That's where we are now)
Look closer, you will find a message for the dreamer
The grass ain’t always greener on the other side
Yeah, I was born on a...
Had a cool jump shot, but I wasn't six four
All I used to wish for was a six four
To be someone these mixed whores wouldn't ignore
I snap nose, snatching purses and stealing bikes
Had knowledge itself, my mom was an Israelite
My 15 gang bang is trying to end my life
By 16 I was shooting pistols in the night
If I had to right...
It only be one sentence, I'm a G!
Dead raw in a penitentiary is where I should be
But like a Rolex time peace I'm... G!
Cause they can't get enough of the... the flow
Witness the glow, God rap that the...
They had a letter, lil resisting the dough
Getting dough, kinda dough to make the friend of a foe
This industry is like an innocent hoe
Backwards, spitting whack words, niggers I blow
Here we go!
I'm constructing pyramids in your dome
While I'm killing this show
Cause every line is infinite as an owe, oh
I guess my life is a bitch, huh?
Slaughter house I go platinum, I post a jump off a bridge, huh
I post a slip off my wrist, huh
A number one Billboard platinum, blackass the kiss, huh
For money, nah, I can't underachieve
So like growing up with gangstas I came up with Gs
The deck's out to get me, got an ace out my sleeve
So when it's nothing, the cards winning the game up to me!
They're coming for my head, don't let the game circumcise you
How can my grass be green when we used the same fertilizer?
Everybody is a hood... niggas ain't even Muslims
And they're passing on a pig game, they don't... you
Shout out to ... and the fivers
I'm living my life behind this mike ironic
Trying to make my life liver
So I meditate till my head is...
Sometimes I feel like my damn mind is a landmine that could detonate!
Surrounded by suckers, let them hate!
Knowing them fuckers is probably pussies as the dinner plate...
I'm in a state where everybody stressed out
Walking with their chest out, what a fuck...
Your dad left out, your brother in a... stretched out
Your lil sister fucking everybody sexed out
So she got a gang kids running around... as small as a guest house
And ass crooked on that red couch
Chuck's on a coffee table, watching TV
But really, the TV screen is watching me
Think! how can I get money and stay out the...
Every cop that arrested me can suck a beef link
I freestyle so much, I don't even need ink
The mean is so serious, they ask me "do you at least blink?"
before the weight of my body left for imprint
on the couch see cushion
I left the house, I had to keep pushing!
