The Other Side

[Verse 1: Simeon]
The Automatics rip through your jacket
Bringing news that's tragic
Trynna stay sane, in the midst of madness
Better peep it with ya' third eye
Or this gon' be ya' last ride
Lay back, and you could watch your soul rise
Peep the signs be wise, Otherwise another homicide
Walking the streets I'm seeing fewer guys
'Cause the streets, they be cold;
38's in pea coats, 45's, 22's and Desert Eagles
Niggas living like Mad Max
Fighting for mad scraps, thinking it's fat stacks
Let's flash back
Where little kids could play
We weren't stressing 'bout pay
And we could hang out on the block all day
Those be the beast times
We greet with peace signs
Love's on the decline
Let's hit the rewind
I'm sick of street crimes
I miss the street signs
'Cause they filled with dope dealing
Niggas that made a killing
By fucking up the way we all living
But yo

[Hook: Simeon 3x]
I'm just a nigga from the other side
Ayo, I'm just another nigga from the other side

[Verse 2: Simeon]
Let me tell you about the other side, let me tell you
From where the grass is greener
Streets a bit more cleaner
And these good kids, got cruel demeanors
So they just might murder ya
From sub suburbia
Grew up yacht club, or grew up burglars
Some came from wealth, others begging for help
This is home if I can say so myself
But I'ma report now
Potomac's by Georgetown
That's Ying and Yang, either way it goes down
Far and close from Pleasantville
Last year dozens killed
Dreams of D.C. becoming real
So play your part, be smart
Better follow your heart
Otherwise get a tent behind the K-Mart
And I tell you no lies
Woodbridge on the Rise
And now you niggas know about the other side

[Hook 4x ]
