To Get To The Other Side

Me and the boys

Pass the same 20 pound note

Around to whoever needs it most

I've got a date on Friday night

But the phone company shut off Hassans phone

It's all good though let him have it

We got enough food to see us through till tomorrow night

Bid him good night

I'll see him on the other side

Tryna' make it to the other side

Doing my best to get to the other side

Just tryna' make it to the other side

Muggsy sitting on the ground

Throwing rocks down at a mound

Chewing on a faded straw

Squints at the town says she got no regrets

But suspects theres gotta be something more

Says if the lord dropped her

Down a rope from the sky

She'd pull herself out the muck

One prayer at a time

Leave a note to see her

On the other side

Tryna' make it to the other side

Doing my best to get to the other side

Just tryna' make it to the other side

Well them doors never stop swinging off their hinges

People leave our number all the time

Adam's in the instituion

Elmo moved back home

Muggsys down in mexico

The rest aren't far behind

I'll see them all tomorrow though

Same place same time

Pat my pockets check my wallet and

Prepare myself before

I get to the other side

Just Tryna' make it to the other side

Doing my best to get to the other side

Doing what I can to get to the other side

Doing what I can to get to the other side
