Kota the Friend
Northside
[Intro]
Sun comin' out on the side
Don't it feel good?
Feel good
Yeah (Statik Selektah)

[Verse 1]
Last trip around the sun
Give me peace and love, I don't ask for much
Even in recessions, Mama scrapped enough
Cryin' in a room over money, now we laugh it up
Grass is cut just below the ankle
Try me if you want, I could read your every angle
Frontin' from the jump, I could read you like a fable
Lot of dollar signs I been leavin' on the table
Uh, don't let 'em faze you
All phases we blaze through
Why was I comparin' my real diamonds to fake jewels?
Why was I inferior to hill climbin' and great views?
Noticin' that here above the clouds live a great few
I'm done strugglin', give me ease
Told the streets I'm done hustlin', give me peace
I told my city I'm done slummin' and give me trees
Never be afraid to surrender, that's what we really need
Go with the grain, bro
The rain comin', I don't even put on a raincoat
Oil at the base, it's just makin' my flame grow
I'm always hittin' home, makin' sure that I stay close
I listen and take notes, and I see the
[Pre-Chorus]
Sun comin' out on the side
Don't it feel good?
Yeah

[Chorus]
Mama raised me on the east side
Had to make it to the west side
Got the fam on the south side
And bought some land on the north side

[Verse 2]
Yeah, let go and let God
Remember savin' every single penny just to get by
Remember when we thought we wouldn't make it out of NY
But even at my lowest, I was walkin' with my head high (Yeah)
Life gon' life, n***a, I'ma be Teflon
Take your best shot, boy, I walk with my vest on
I seen where these people spend they energy at
So I don't really give a fuck if I'm the one that they slept on
Nah, we really livin' life
N***as wanna say it's a fluke, and then we did it twice
Three times and it's like, "Nah, nah, they really nice"
Had to take the stairs just to take a hundred fifty flights
Thank you for the road blocks
Brick walls, dead ends, sayin' a whole lot
Pitfall, went left, bump into gold blocks
No force, less tress, makin' my soul rot
I happily coast by, and I see the
[Pre-Chorus]
Sun comin' out on the side
Don't it feel good?
Don't it feel good?

[Chorus]
Mama raised me on the east side
Had to make it to the west side
Got the fam on the south side
And bought some land on the north side

[Outro]
The north side
(The north side)
Copped some land on the north side
(The north side)
