Letra de Otherside Of America - Meek Mill

What do you have to lose?

You’re living in poverty

Your schools are no good

You have no?jobs

58%?of your youth?is unemployed

What the hell do you?have to lose?

Reportin' live from the other side of America

Mama let me sip the forty, I was just a shorty (Damn)

Then I started spitting godly, then they said 'record me'

I feel like this shit was for me, this shit just my story (Facts)

Yeah, uh

Jumped off the porch

I got a Porsche, won't take it back

I'm on the block with the killers and holdin' my own, of course (Yeah, check, check)

I seen my mom and dad separate, ain't talkin' divorce (Talking divorce)

Said daddy was livin' by the fire, and he died by the torch (Check, check)

I'm where the AKs is, we like the Bébé's Kids

Ain't have a daddy, I listened to suckas the same way that Ray Ray did

I'm toting Smith &'s and HKs and I just was a grade A kid

Ain't have no guidance, we grew up with hitters and did everything they said

Point out the block, we spinnin' that (Spinning)

Run in the spot, we gettin' that (Get it)

Give us some work, we flippin' that (Flipping)

I'm hittin' from jail, they ain't hiittin' back

I need a lawyer, money for commissary, and nobody ain't sendin' that

I'm in my cell like, "When I get out, I'm making a movie, no Cinemax" (Woo)

Yeah, back home and I'm fresh on bail

Phone chirpin', it was next to Tell

Block popppin', it was extra sales

Big dogs, they ain't showin' remorse

I was beggin' just to catch a sale

Same block, we was goin' to war

I was prayin' I ain't catch a shell (Check)

Uh, we was starvin' for a thousand nights

Living like we tryna die tonight

Glock .40 sound like dynamite

I was fuckin' up my cop money

Selling soap like it's China white

OG's said, "You fuckin' the block up"

I was mad, I was tryna fight

Nigga, we hungry

Mama at work, daddy, he dead, nigga we lonely

Stomach growlin' like a AMG, goin' to bed, we hungry

Uzi on me, all my friends are dead, nigga, we lonely

Reportin' live from the other side of America

Reportin' live from the other side (Yeah)

Same corner where my brothers died (Yeah)

Living life, we ain't got a care

Told my mama I ain't dyin' here (No)

.40 on me, I ain't buyin' beer (No)

Ain't have a will, now I'm flyin' Lear

Bunch of felons on the jet with me

Make a movie like it's Con Air

Started off in the basement

Now it's rooftops and LeBron there

Still fighting open cases

Out on bail, nigga, but it's my year

Summertime, it get cold out

Heater on me like a Moncler

Closet bigger than my old house

Thinkin' 'bout it, I was fine there

Came out the dirt (Dirt)

Dedicated, I was makin' it work

Medicated, I was taking them Percs

Devastated when my niggas got murked

Educated, had to get to it first

I knew trappin', it would get me in jail

Playing with pistols, it would get me a hearse

But I ain't give a fuck, send me to church (Woo)

Yeah, they gotta catch me in traffic (Traffic)

I ain't with none of this rap shit (Rap shit)

I've been tryna run from these caskets

All this pain built in me, nigga

You don't want none of this action

Go get some money and feed your fam

'Cause this is a fuckin' disaster, yeah

Uh, we was starvin' for a thousand nights

Living like we tryna die tonight

Glock .40 sound like dynamite

I was fuckin' up my cop money

Selling soap like it's China white

OG's said, "You fuckin' the block up"

I was mad, I was tryna fight

Nigga, we hungry

Mama at work, daddy, he dead, nigga we lonely

Stomach growling like a AMG, goin' to bed, we hungry

Uzi on me, all my friends are dead, nigga, we lonely

Reportin' live from the other side of America

I always dreamed too, of being like, on like CNN and being able to like express myself

And, and, and speak for like the voiceless young men of America (Do it)

The first step, I would say, I grew up in American in a ruthless neighborhood where we were not protected by police, uh

We grew up in ruthless environments, we grew up around murder, you see murder

You see seven people die a week, I think you would probably carry a gun yourself

Would you?

Uh, yeah, I probably would
