Shadows and stones
This place isn't ours anymore
I can't be alone
Oh, it all reminds me of our war
I try scrubbin' it off when I'm in the shower
I stare at myself in the mirror for hours
I've held it all in but I can't go much longer
And it's time (Southside, Southside, Southside)
It's time (R.I.P. my nigga Smoke Dawg)
(R.I.P. my nigga fifty shot NSK, free my nigga 10K)
(Shoutout Puffy L'z, my nigga 47, my nigga Poy)
Growin' up in, in, in, in my hood
You know what I'm sayin'?
I've lost a lot of people
And I can't let it go
This feelin' I have won't settle
Won't stop rainin', we're at sea level
And this pain is never gentle
It anchors me into the rubble
But I'm breathin' fine
Oh, I'm breathin' fine
(Awhoolay, Ano Gang)
And it's time (Eighty Seven hitters, nigga)
Time, oh
And it's time
Time, ayy (to pray)
(Southside, Southside, Southside)
Grievin' the birth of a new day
That's not a great place
That's not a great place
So, it's time
