I'm a 80's baby and the southside raised me
But I fall on my knees at night
Askin for the Lord to save me
Where the young niggas crazy
You gotta pack three eighties
These streets so treacherous
You gotta have it off safety
I'm a southside baby born in the eighties
Niggas tried to play me
But you know they couldnt fade me
Jumped off the porch at the age of 16
Mama was a hustler daddy was a fiend
If yeen grow up in the slums
Youn know what I mean
Single parent home with three other siblings
I had to get it up I had to be tough
Used my mind and my muscle
Applied to my hustle had to think smarter
Had to grind harder if you seen what I seen man that shit will scare
I done when dope houses get bombarded
I done seen when fiends hit da pipe Dat shit will calm them
Watch how you treat people or face the karma
I'm a real street nigga all about my commas
I been thru a lot of shit didn't break a bone
In the streets all night shoulda had my ass home
I'm a 80's baby and the southside raised me
But I fall on my knees at night
Askin for the Lord to save me
Where the young niggas crazy
You gotta pack three eighties
These streets so treacherous
You gotta have it off safety
