The Other Side

[Verse 1] The other side is like where Darth Vader resides, its dark No sunlight everything happens at night A new hope I'm trying to be, drug empires strike back Padawans listen up stay away from the streets This sidious bastard tried to insidious me But I'm mentally strong enough to reject your energy I'm ready for anything the world has to offer Attacks from the media, E-thugs gang banging through their keyboards Paparazzi taking pictures snap back to my past it ain't pretty I'm trying to reach the other side of poverty I'm on a quest to be wealthy The other side is like hamsterdam There's a thin line between heaven and hell here Drugs are everywhere, pop mollies drinking shots of Belvedere Sex is in the air, it smells like teen spirit But these kids are only in middle school And they already pulling triggers, doing drugs, and taking shots of liquor I'm fighting these demons trying to stay straight but the streets keep calling my name The game is in your veins Crime rates elevate when things go astray Out here you're just trying to live to see another day Despite the shit you go through on a everyday basis Its good to be alive when you on the other side You just trying to survive and make it to 25 Define the odds and thank God you alive [Verse 2] When you die the other side its good to be high Above the clouds God's kingdom in heaven When you die there's two sides you soul can be given So many questions like will my sins be forgiven? Did I do the right things? God knows I had good intentions But the dark side of the street life made me lose my religion I tried to resist temptations and make the best decisions I'm trying to be an example for my generation Thats obsessed with dumb shit and twerking for recognition Now there's a thick line between heaven and hell now Do the right things like Spike Lee Try to maintain before you go crazy and kill radio Raheem And nobody is perfect but the devil is lurking Out searching for weak souls to purchase With no refunds so recite your verses And just stay strong and live with a purpose
