[Intro: Russell Peters]
They have a unique way of speaking
They put words together in a very interesting fashion
I remember I [laughs]
Oh I grew up in a town called Brampton
And uh
[Crowd cheers]
B Town represent
Um, and I remember when I was in high school I was standing at the bus stop
[Verse 1]
City blocked
Every block lettered off
N block, C block
My block tree block
Timberlane we stop
Down the lane grow op
I just had to grow up
I just had to grow huh
Well I did well I'm Him well in deep welded this felt the diss
Fell in pits felt of sheep shelter them, I am god I am dead, Nietzsche had said
I don't need none of you, None of this come equipped with lethal
Take the city while sleeper, Damn you don't wanna meet the reaper
Damned by the heat of my people, My own kind quick to spit up on ya dreams huh
My whole grind been a battle of the ether, Still I rise through the chatter of the evil
Even if the odds against me I will take pride in what I can be
Can't you see cyclic proverbs trivial problems pollute all you envy
Enter this side where the trends define you
Trust they won't find you without a label or clique to describe you
Are you in are you out what excites you, are you left are you right we don't like you
Might fight you all we do is hit racks something light fool
Still it's B-Town I roll around hold it down is all I do
[Chorus]
Gotta get it huh so I pull up with a stick
Forty ounce in my cup but I pull up with a swish
Puff puff in ya face I'm the man see ya place
See ya later if you ain't bout my ways bout my wave, way on this side
410 Steeles way on this side
All I do is wheel way on this side
You know we been nice, don't gotta think twice
I stay on this side, way on this side
[Bridge]
Honda Civics dodging streets, LA fitness New York dreams
They all ride the same old beat, Here I come don't play with me
Honda Civics dodging streets, LA fitness New York dreams
They all ride the same old beat, Here I come don't play with me
[Hook]
Gotta get it huh so I pull up with a stick
Forty ounce in my cup but I pull up with a swish
Puff puff in ya face I'm the man see ya place
See ya later if you ain't bout my ways bout my wave, way on this side
410 Steeles way on this side
All I do is wheel way on this side
You know we been nice, don't gotta think twice
I stay on this side, way on this side
[Verse 2]
Ee Grek euh ess it's the most prolific
Literary lyricist left to lead with a pen in
Dependent on a level from his peers and competit-
Ors never deterred on a roll like baguettes is
Spitting like I got one try little Lowry it's crunch time
Only rapper North side ain't sing every punchline
Run rhymes like models runaway looking dumb fine
Some try to oust me can't reach me even combined
On this side it seems to be the status not the stature
Artificial over natural the silly never mature
Make up to hide the misery muscles to mask the rickety
Me I lay it on the table take what you will make of me
On this side, drove down Bovaird
Seem like the faith common but the sense so rare
Everybody frugal with their wealth and don't care
What it do for you if it ain't for them
On this side, came out the womb round I-95
Down south the sun shine one nine nine five
Till like nine nine switch sides to colder cross the border
Winter always fell upon the kings up Northern hold up
Head big as Neutron thought I could be Newton
But since six years old I had my mood on
This hip hop skip rocks to the beat that my head nod
When I caught if off the radio BET music videos
One sec In Da Club next Nas got me motivate
I know I can be the man it's historically
My purpose since sixteen been spitting sixteens put the work in
First in last out I am determined
To turn them screw face sideways on this side
Where you get knifed for an iPod kids dying
And the ops posted up 2 blocks away
Still takes 'em 60 minutes just to come and chalk the grave
