The Other Side

[Chorus: Kng Ego]
No one told me grass was greener on the other side
Nobody told me it was okay for a man to cry
Nobody told me it ain't good to bear shit inside
So I grind, push all my feelings aside
Cuz I just don't got the time (I swear)
Ten toes down, back against the wall
But still gon' hold shit down
Try me if you want, it's gon' be one last round
For my people I'll wipe 'em out
But the only thing I'm tryna figure out
Is the grass really greener?

[Verse 1: Chad Armes]
So many folks out here depend on me (facts)
I could damn near fill a swimmin' pool
With all these fallin' tears on me (I could)
Done gave it all I had to give homie (yup)
Shine light bright on so many
It's a shame that they done switched on me (look at 'em)
Call that give and take (nah), I call that real and fake (yah)
Ain't gon' take food off our dinner plate, best get away (be gone)
So many long nights (nights), I sit and song write (write)
Stressin' thinkin' "Is this ever gon' be alright?" (uh huh)
What didn't kill me made me stronger than I've ever been (yeah)
Stay away from snakes, watch 'em they gon' shed their skin (watch 'em)
Knockin' at my door, I'll never let that devil in (never)
If they ain't ridin' for you, go and get some better friends

[Chorus: Kng Ego]
No one told me grass was greener on the other side
Nobody told me it was okay for a man to cry
Nobody told me it ain't good to bear shit inside
So I grind, push all my feelings aside
Cuz I just don't got the time (I swear)
Ten toes down, back against the wall
But still gon' hold shit down
Try me if you want, it's gon' be one last round
For my people I'll wipe 'em out
But the only thing I'm tryna figure out
Is the grass really greener?

[Verse 2: JamWayne]
Shit I'm all the way with it
I ain't no gettin' outta this
Ten toes stuck, big truck, Mac-10
Them froze up, now Jack let it spin
Real shit gon' penetrate through the pain in the pen
Too many caged in the pen, dealin' with it
Everything dim outside vibrant and dream of a land
Dreamland there is, know them pals be kin
Everything real nice down now lookin' in
But your slice nice too, shit how much for your land
Cuz we been growin' the ganja and that smoke rollin'
You got so greener grass shit I had me a hit
Calm the voices in my head, help me chill for a bit

[Chorus: Kng Ego]
No one told me grass was greener on the other side
Nobody told me it was okay for a man to cry
Nobody told me it ain't good to bear shit inside
So I grind, push all my feelings aside
Cuz I just don't got the time (I swear)
Ten toes down, back against the wall
But still gon' hold shit down
Try me if you want, it's gon' be one last round
For my people I'll wipe 'em out
But the only thing I'm tryna figure out
Is the grass really greener?

[Verse 3: TN Grizzly]
It's the more they love me
The ones that love me is forced to hate me
I'm on the grind for greatness
I can't be takin' breaks
Remember harder times, hard to climb
Tryin' hard to find a job
And refusin' the whip with donor ties
In the paper, chasin' dreams you can't blame
Call me crazy, I kept it faithful and made it major
Broke some hearts, a couple of times just movin' on
I know they love me, regardless I couldn't stay for long
I made mistakes but who ain't
That's just the game that we play
I had to give me a plate, yeah
They gonna lie to your face
Say that they knew you was makin' it
Don't get caught up with fakes, yeah

[Chorus: Kng Ego]
No one told me grass was greener on the other side
Nobody told me it was okay for a man to cry
Nobody told me it ain't good to bear shit inside
So I grind, push all my feelings aside
Cuz I just don't got the time (I swear)
Ten toes down, back against the wall
But still gon' hold shit down
Try me if you want, it's gon' be one last round
For my people I'll wipe 'em out
But the only thing I'm tryna figure out
Is the grass really greener?
