Eastside Songtext
von 1k Phew

And I still pray for better days
Thank you Lord I found another way
Close call, that was yesterday
Could′ve been all bad
Could've went out sad
But I′m free at last
Gotta hold it down for the bros
Til they free at last
Mama got weary
Devil got near me, Father forgive me
Please don't stop saving my soul
Cause I'm still losing control


But I will survive
I got all my life to live
I′ve been down, is what it is
At the end of the day I ain′t trim
They hated on Jesus when he died
Then he came right back to live
Cause he had more love to give
At the end of the day I ain't trim
I put it on God I will survive
Stayed down, four flat, all black Cadillac
Yeah it′s straight like that, no I can't go back
And they know where we at, I′m somewhere stayin' alive
On my knees I′m praying to God
You can tell I ain't one of them guys

Look in my eyes, can you see this pain?
You don't want no diamond ring
If it make you halloween
Look at my life, never been the same
I dun scuffed up my McQueen
Tryna run from Billie Jean

On the east side
Stop all that crying, only strong gon′ survive
Had to go get mine
On the east side
Gotta thank God that I′m alive
Some of my brothers died
And they showed it live on channel five
On the east side

On the east side
And they showed it live on channel five
On the east side


Started killing her sin soon as
She put down that tequila
Used to bounce out with the FUBU shirt
No scuffing up my FILA
Running from neighborhood gangsters
With high knees since we was knee high
Had to learn to let God step on my foes, like B-5
Boom, boom, boom
Jesus tryna get in my room
Didn't know He′d be back here soon
Gave me the keys like autotune
Turn it up, this 808, gon' sit in your Spirit
Don′t sample God, He ain't gon′ clear it
Life lesson, no lyric
When I look over my life all the troubling trials
I went through when I was a kid
Made me remember what God had to suffer
He did what He did, it is what it is
I should be glad that I don't gotta be
Looking over my shoulder, the Father protecting me
Let the teacher come lecture me
Teach me how to love a woman
Cause marriage is more than sex for me
Maturing is realizing that I don't
Gotta keep crashing out
Cause God upset with me
What good can come from Nazareth?
What good can come from the east side?
When I was on the east side
Jesus got poked in this side

Look in my eyes, can you see this pain?
You don′t want no diamond ring
If it make you halloween
Look at my life, never been the same
I dun scuffed up my McQueen
Tryna run from Billie Jean

On the east side
Stop all that crying, only strong gon′ survive
Had to go get mine
On the east side
Gotta thank God that I'm alive
Some of my brothers died
And they showed it live on channel five
On the east side

On the east side
