[Verse]
Yeah
I done been fucked up
I done down bad, like wassup
I Done been cruising down the highway of life
And hit traffic, now I'm stuck
Might have been a few hours
Might have been a few days, I lost count
Might have missed a few calls
And I might have lost out
I'm a lost cause
And on top of
All of that got a kid gotta pay the bills
Self imposed pressure like I gotta make a mill
Self imposed torture like I ain't good enough
Look at my peers like I ain't moving up
Been in the same place since 2000 and uh
Before 30 I should have a few houses and uhm
Before 30 I should spend a few thousands on such
But it's 4:30 I just hope that I can make it to lunch
I hate the morning but...
[Chorus]
East side to the west side
The sun will rise
'least I did my best while I'm alive
South side to the north side
I'ma rise
South side to the north side
[Verse]
Yeah
I done been fucked up
I done been down bad, like wassup
I done been cruising down the highway of life and hit traffic
Now I'm stuck
Might have been a few days
Might have been a few months
It's been too long
Might have been a couple times where inspiration came but then I couldn't make a new song
Shit, what did I do wrong?
Nigga who cares about yo lil emo shit
Niggas gotta be bold like heads after kimo
Shit
Niggas gotta be tough, take one for the team or be
Lost in your thoughts but nobody finding Nemo
It's too many damn fish in the ocean, nigga drown
Need no sympathy when you crying you need a towel
Nigga you should be smoking that bush that you're beating 'round
Nigga you never needed a break, you need a crown
Shit it's either this or you break, you need crowd
And a mic and a stage
You Could be getting paid for shit you writting in a page
Get over that depression that you fighting it's a phase
You failing to realize it's your mind, it's a shame
Thought your ass has awaken
And Fuck this talk about the Sad Generation
Ya'll are soft that's just that, nothing to it
I mean the way that ya'll act, fuckin stupid
But it's amu...
[Interlude: Merciful King]
And I'm quite scared, to be honest
To find out whether I'm depressed or not
Or have anxiety or not
But I don't think I'm depressed
Well I hope I'm not
[Chorus]
East side to the west side
The sun will rise
'least I did my best while I'm alive
South side to the north side
I'ma rise
South side to the north side
East side to the west side
The sun will rise
'least I did my best while I'm alive
South side to the north side
I'ma rise
South side to the north side
