The OtherSide The Roots (Ft. Bilal & Greg Porn)

[Intro: ?uestlove]
Two—

[Verse 1: Black Thought]
Yo, we obviously need to tone it down a bit
Running 'round town, spending time like it's counterfeit
Everybody catching hay fever like sinuses
Step in my arena, let me show y'all who the highness is
You might say I could be doing something positive
Humble head down, low and broke like promises
Soaking and broken in a joke like comics is
Not enough paper to be paying folks compliments
But when that paper got low, so did my tolerance
And it ain't no truth in a dare without the consequence
Listen, if it not for these hood inventions
I'd be just another kid from the block with no intentions
On the dock of that bay, serving a life sentence
Even if I'm going to Hell, I'm gonna make an entrance, yeah
Let 'em know I'm getting cheese like omelettes is
But I'm the toast of the town like Thomas is

[Hook: Bilal]
We're all on a journey
Down the hall of memories
Don't worry 'bout what you ain't got
Leave with a little bit of dignity
Never loved what I had
Always felt like I deserved more
But when I make it to the other side (Make it to the other side)
That's when we'll settle up the score
