On The Other Side Lyrics - Country, God Or The Girl Deluxe Edition - K'naan

I spy with my little eye 

A murderer, a murderer 

So long the ratchet in the streets 

You never heard of her, streets you never heard of her 

These are the people who are trying hard to slip over, tryin' hard to slip over 

We're sailing always sailing in the sea of years go by 

I know I know I know I came a long way 

Oh yeah with from my heart knock all day 

I kill a killed with a spitter 9 mm on my hip with the debt 

Then sign me a dealer 

Had it hard so you been a nigga cry me a river 

'Cause I'm from the piss and life's grind me his liver 

I mean it's spitter then brooder then fruit her 

Then I'm really little 

Got a brother and a sister and I'm in the middle 

Mother tryin' to figure out how to we me a dinner 

Then I had a piece of bread for my little nigga 

'Cause he waiting outside 

Too shy to ask and too young to die 

Too weak to rob and too good to lie 

Two years go by, he a killer 

Pissed up high the pillar then he go to work 

Monkey see monkey do grow the gorilla 

So he turn another wife into a widow 

Which turned another son into a bidder 

Root of all evil it's all lethal 

Injection without interjecting for people 

Fall back but ain't no kush around here 

This is my block call a cock block 

'Cause ain't no pussy round here 

He's a hard head and a pot head 

If he'll keep it up he'll be a chop head 

But he heard his voice in the future instead 

And he said

If even small it seem so high 

It's just a wall I made it on the other side 

And I won't let you slide 

Love won't break I'll catch you on the other side 

Metsie metsie for all my blessings in the murk seat 

'Cause sometimes it could've gotten messy 

Like if my shot came and left me 

Still acting willin' dumb and thirsty 

Still saying come and test me 

Still selling crack by young ol Wesley 

And low wage cops can still can arrest me 

That's just not sexy 

I know you feel it who would've thought 

I would go four wheelin' in Morocco 

With a fine dime I brought from Stockholm 

Take it from a war child never enlisted 

Life is twisted like 

I'm not the only one Lenin said 

Chapman is here, but Lenin's dead

If even small it seem so high 

It's just a wall I made it on the other side 

And I won't let you slide 

Love won't break I'll catch you on the other side 

Don't let me go astray 

'Cause I am afraid 

I need your strength 

So I won't be afraid 

I spy with my little eye 

A murderer, a murderer 

So long the ratchet in the streets 

You never heard of her, streets you never heard of her 

These are the people who are trying hard to slip over, tryin' hard to slip over 

We're sailing always sailing in the sea of years go by 

In the sea of years go by
