I done been through hell and I felt the pain
I done seen the whole world go through a whole lot of change
I seen a mama watch her baby die, just for gettin' high
Then twenty minutes later, go get high
I seen killers get justified, and all the while
Scratchin' my head, wonderin' how is it right?
I seen some real good people die in the crossfire
Of some men afraid of losin' their pride
It's pain in the burbs... And pain in the streets
It's a war on the church... And war in the east
So listen... Half of us thirst, while half of us feast
Steady chasin' this Hollywood peace
I seen so many cry, I seen so many die over nothin' at all
Giving their life up for something so small
I seen so many tears over so many years we can never get back
This ain't life if we're livin' in a past that's Sidewayz
I lost my patna Reece, and ever since that day
Life's been crazy man, I really ain't had too much to say
Sometimes I want revenge, but that's the Devil's way
Of actin' out, so I just get down on my knees and pray
I ask Him lead the way, but if it gets no better
Just know I tried... Consider this my last letter
To my fans, to my friends, to my family
When I leave this earth, I hope ya'll all remember me
RIP shawty Quint. Rest in peace Preacha Man
I'm gon' hold it down, but swear to God I miss you man
RIP Yoowah, we miss you Franco
Freaky Tee, he took it hard... I feel his pain though
I seen so many cry, I seen so many die over nothin' at all
Giving their life up for something so small
I seen so many tears over so many years we can never get back
This ain't life if we're livin' in a past that's Sidewayz
There's got to be hope in my future, cuz there's pain in my past
But I always been a believer, that the sufferin' can't last
Cuz the rain comes down... The flood gets high
But sooner or later something is gon' have to shine
If we stop walkin' Sidewayz
This life gon' fade like the wind blows
But homie I know where I'm about to go
Down that golden highway! Leavin' behind this pain that I've seen!
I seen so many cry, I seen so many die over nothin' at all
Giving their life up for something so small
I seen so many tears over so many years we can never get back
This ain't life if we're livin' in a past that's Sidewayz
