South Side
With lifeless eyes he forms the south side
hand sign
represent his neighborhood is all he know
No remorse for his actions banging on the
other side
Dope in his pocket pistol in his waistband
pulling aiming firing shots with his left
hand
Hot steel spiralling out the barrel of the
gun empty shells and bodies hitting the
pavement
Elevating the crime rate he celebrates with
his homies back on the south side
Lines of cocaine being snorted off the
stomachs of sluts with bloodshot eyes
they scream southside
North Siders come through gunning
automatic weapons being fired screams
of whores echo through the night unable
to return fire south siders lay dying with
lifeless eyes they form the south side
hand sign
