When I heard the beat, I literally told Zone 6 "I need it!" The rest is history! This is a real Atlanta anthem right here as well as a high quality display of the talents of everyone involved.
lyrics
Yeah
See I was raised on that side
To get paid, get high, get that fly
Represent til I die
Nigga that’s why
That's why, that's why
See I was raised on that side
To get paid, get high, get that fly
Represent til I die
Nigga that’s why
Say that's why, say that's why
See I was raised on that side
To get paid, get high, get that fly
Represent til I die
Nigga that’s why
That's why, that's why
Say that's why, say that's why
That's why
Lord forgive my sins but I have to get these ends
Might perpetrate but won’t pretend
I stayed down to get the wins
Might ride round to corner bend
While putting OG in the wind
Might be dolo or with kin
Realness always starts within
Done had situations where lines blurred between family, foe, or friend
Same folks saying that they won’t hurt you turn around & do it again
They say I’m the sum of my circle
Mine is about the size of a pin
But this broken heart is gon mend
That’s why on myself I depend
That’s why
And when I’m close to fully healed
I bet that you that time reveals
Rosebudd the real deal
Realized that even means to ends have meaning still
That’s why fruit can only bear when care can be instilled
Feel?
See I was raised on that side
To get paid, get high, get that fly
Represent til I die
Nigga that’s why
That's why, that's why
See I was raised on that side
To get paid, get high, get that fly
Represent til I die
Nigga that’s why
Say that's why, say that's why
See I was raised on that side
To get paid, get high, get that fly
Represent til I die
Nigga that’s why
That's why, that's why
Say that's why, say that's why
That's why
I got numbers in my phone I can’t never ring again
They aint dead, but we aint friends
That’s just how the story ends
Yeah that’s how the cookie crumbles
Was raised on that Humble Mumble
In a place that was a forest
Now it’s a concrete jungle
Of course I slipped and I stumbled
That’s part of finding your way
Went from minor to major to kickin flav everyday
Be weary of those who try to take your good nature for play
And don’t tell them folks where you stay
Unless you tryna be prey
That’s why
I keep the heat tucked close extra discreet
This the hardest street anthem from someone not from the streets
If I’m apprehensive to meet look please don’t be offended
Zone 6 got the whole Mound crunk like North Memphis, Memphis
Yeah
See I was raised on that side
To get paid, get high, get that fly
Represent til I die
Nigga that’s why
That's why, that's why
See I was raised on that side
To get paid, get high, get that fly
Represent til I die
Nigga that’s why
Say that's why, say that's why
See I was raised on that side
To get paid, get high, get that fly
Represent til I die
Nigga that’s why
That's why, that's why
Say that's why, say that's why
That's why
