The Southside, yeah
The Southside, we told the time by the streetlight
My grandma house, I used to think about how we fight
Just some knuckleheads running round with knee scratches
Same ones I shed tears with now we laughing
I miss the days I wasn't worried about a damn thing
I miss the days when I would be around my family
Looking around, I see everybody smile at me
Now I look up and I just hope my grandma proud of me
Yeah, talk about memories I can tell you plenty of 'em
I can tell you 'bout the late nights in them tents
'Cause we would stay up if somebody had to vent
But now if I wanna talk with somebody I gotta text
Remember when times wasn't hard
Remember when we had heart to hearts
Now everybody growing up, feel like we growing apart
We cried together, we fought together, I got scars
We walk together, my dog forever it's ours
As time keeps on moving
And I'm a proud older brother of my lil' sisters and my lil' brothers, yeah
We was always taught to love one another
So know that we always got each other
The Southside, we told the time by the streetlight
My grandma house, I used to think about how we fight
Just some knuckleheads running round with knee scratches
Same ones I shed tears with now we laughing
I miss the days I wasn't worried about a damn thing
I miss the days when I would be around my family
Looking around, I see everybody smile at me
Now I look up and I just hope my grandma proud of me
And we done came up since a knee-high
I know they proud of us 'cause look at how we are
Uncle telling me like boy toughen up
'Cause if you wanna be a man, then be a man, or you ain't tough enough
And now I'm motivation to my little cousins
Just know that if I make it, then you make it, but you just gotta want it
I want it bad, I don't wanna see my family struggle
I don't wanna be dead broke, I gotta get up, and I gotta hustle
Thinking about my past days
Sometimes I cry at night, thinking 'bout the old times
When we was just like that age
When I was a young kid, never thought 'bout rapping
To all the ones believed in me, I'ma make it happen
We told the time by the streetlight
My grandma house, I used to think about how we fight
Just some knuckleheads running round with knee scratches
Same ones I shed tears with now we laughing
I miss the days I wasn't worried about a damn thing
I miss the days when I would be around my family
Looking around, I see everybody smile at me
Now I look up and I just hope my grandma proud of me
