THIS IS FOR EVERYONE WHO GREW UP ON THE EASTSIDE OF PRIOVIDENCE, RI AND KNOW THE STRUGGLE East side, East Side, Thats where I'm from where boys play ball in the park and crackheads stroll the streets where welfare mothers strive for somthing to eat where police walk up and down the streets to keep the peace where kids sell drug just to get by, and others just to keep their clothes and sneakers fly, where girls get pregnant at the age of 15, while all the fathers wish it were a dream, where shots ring out and panics all about where cars speed up and down the street, while the driver bumps his head to a funny beat, where boys cants ride through the southside without the heat East side, east side born and raised where boys stand on the block smoking a pound of haze where black on black crime is everyday and niggas kill in which ever way where everyone is related, families reunite cant stay an hour without a fight where gossip is a must everyones business is spreading while hearts are shedding east side, east side where you see ya friend get shot And around the corner your brothers getting knocked where crack mothers steal money from their kids whose daddys are up state doing a bid where pit bulls & cats run loose and kids my age boost where people stretch their words real long like their singing a lullaby song east side, east side now you know where im from Do you think its all fun?
