[Verse 1: Pharoahe Monch]
Southside's a town with a lot of hustle and bustle
A kid got stuck for a buck under the trestle
Died with pride, he thought he had a big heart muscle
He fought back, but the attack was brutal
Futile to his survival and the event that his crew will
Seek revenge on the assailants who rushed him
They crushed him, snuffed the life all out of his body
Had friends, a Benz with rims by Gotti
Guys wanted to beat him, girls wanted to greet him
Kids wanted to be him when they saw him in the coliseum
Lots of cash hoppin' fast on the avenue
Pump up your system loud and he'll laugh at you
'Cause under the TEC is a gooseneck
And a Glock nine when he stops at the light
Pumpin', risin' into the top in
[Chorus]
Southside, Southside (Rough)
Southside, Southside (Rough)
Southside, Southside (Rough)
Southside, Southside
Southside, Southside
[Verse 2: Prince Poetry]
I grew up on the rough side of town, kids play stick-up
Playing the game of survival, going uptown to pick up
Supportin' the taste with leathers and bamboos and black Timbs
Benz parked at the curb while puffin' herb (Word)
Cruisin' 160 with the lean
Sportin' BVs on the Bimmer with the Italian wintergreen
Interior while the Alpine pumps, you get open
Hoppin', hopin' to catch them all open, girls scopin'
As you unlock, now you gotta go, gotta go
Hoppin' down Merit to get back to the 40
Back in the days, Queens never got props
But Southside had citywide respect plus knockouts
40, Baisley, Sutphin, Merrick
Queens wack, step back, I don't wanna hear it, I'm from
Southside's a town with a lot of hustle and bustle
A kid got stuck for a buck under the trestle
Died with pride, he thought he had a big heart muscle
He fought back, but the attack was brutal
Futile to his survival and the event that his crew will
Seek revenge on the assailants who rushed him
They crushed him, snuffed the life all out of his body
Had friends, a Benz with rims by Gotti
Guys wanted to beat him, girls wanted to greet him
Kids wanted to be him when they saw him in the coliseum
Lots of cash hoppin' fast on the avenue
Pump up your system loud and he'll laugh at you
'Cause under the TEC is a gooseneck
And a Glock nine when he stops at the light
Pumpin', risin' into the top in
[Chorus]
Southside, Southside (Rough)
Southside, Southside (Rough)
Southside, Southside (Rough)
Southside, Southside
Southside, Southside
