Ascending inside a dream we been living
Member of me again, remember living in rented
Apartment buildings, bills overdue, tomorrow’s christmas
Momma said make a wishlist
Presents always presented
Always running the extra mile
Struggle ain’t change a mood, we kept a smile (Word up)
Like, f*ck are we to complain about
It’s, hella blood in the family, that’s yet to make it out (For real)
From them projects, drug dealin’ on evеry corner
Gang war series, nеighborhood horror
Candy lady, cross the street look over ya shoulders (Watch out)
Officers tried to tase my cousin, after we ordered
Snacks in our hands walking to Auntie San’s
Red and Blue lights, flashing out front again (It’s 12)
Family cuffed up, by those in command (How)
Only life they’ve known, dream sunk in the sand
Every time I roll in this town, I see the world different
All the youth riding with straps, without pop’s permission
Avenging the fallen before em, Killers ambition
The other me is a side effect
Other me a side effect
I’m going to war bout the fam
Everything they are, made me everything I am (For real)
F*ck with me, you might see a weapon in they hands (It’s over)
And all I gotta say, “you better pray the chopper jam” (Pray to God)
If we get violent, it’s all love (Peace)
If you don’t feel the same about it, tough luck (Well)
We moving on, why you still stuck
We wanted peace from the jump, but you came for us
See, all we did was finish what you started (That’s all)
That’s what you get for tryna leave us broken hearted
We been dealing with your kind for the longest (For a while now)
Don’t understand why you see us as a target (Why is that)
Is it because we party hard, late night on the block (Gotta be)
Is it because them kids cover these streets with that chalk (Tell me)
Or could it be you hate the slang, that’s just how we talk (Oh yeah that’s what it is)
I know you wishing you could hang, cause we known to rock
Every time I roll in this town, I see the world different
All the youth riding with straps, without pop’s permission
Avenging the fallen before em, Killers ambition
The other me is a side effect
Other me a side effect
