been spendin most our lives livin N a southside paradise
AINT VERY NICE
been spendin most our lives livin N a southside paradise
ITS COLD AT NIGHT
been spendin most our lives livin N a southside paradise
THIS SHIT AINT RIGHT..
We've been spendin 2 much our lives livin N a southside paradise
Ive been through battles and wars that could rattle ur core
Got scars and sores- showed I never barred them boyz
When it rains it pours..shit it thunders and storms
Me wont cry I and I keeps me covered and warm
Discovered the harm once I strayed 2 far from the righteous
The evils tried 2 fight us I burned 25 lighters
For 25 fighters turned 2 25 martyrs
For 25 mothers and for 25 fathers
Im puffin pine harder just 2 make my rhyme smarter
We elevated game made em nullify orders
Made cross country expeditions- saw wut is vicious
So black men turn 2 niggaz and nubians 2 bitches
Can U picture me outta control, out on a stroll
Hopped up outta this whole seen my people out N tha cold
Having crazy dreams and sleepless nights
From afar U think I'm geekin right- peep this life
SOUTHERN PARADISE
They told me wait until Im older now Im order they say
I shoulda done it as a youngsta but Im too old 2day
They told me plan 4 2morrow but 2morrows 2 far
Tomorrow showed me yesterday wasnt really that hard
They showed me pain is like forever time doesnt heal shit
Only leaves scabs and scars so I never forget
They said "regrets, dont ever have em" I regret every day
For all my partners family from Htown 2 tha Bay
Who son or daughter got entranced and then trapped in the game
Like death was fallin out the clouds and they got caught in the rain
Sha'Tan beatin down my folks poverty and the shacks
Will I make it 2 the next, this marijuana this crack
I gotta target on my back shoulder straps just 2 pull
My community with unity through all of this bull
Having crazy thoughts and sleepless nights
From afar u think Im geekin right- peep this life
SOUTHERN PARADISE
mama's cryin babies dyin and all the people tryin
to make it out the streets dealin with the beef
and its hard 2 B me
It aint never nice, streets cold as ice
and its all my paradise
marijuana weed alcohol and greed
and its all my paradise
tryin 2 live my life, tryin 2 live my life,
and its all my paradise
