Both Sides Lyrics by Justyn Cairo

Heart of Gold

2020

[Intro]
A lot been going on man
In the world, in my life
I’m just gonna speak on it
This some NextLVL shit
Cairo
[Chorus]
Stressin’ like we ‘bout to start trial
We didn’t do the crime, but serve time
Keepin’ them apart, Apartheid
She been out here playin’ both sides
Foot up on the gas, monoxide
Never finish last, ‘cause we climb
Keepin’ it together like Jekyll and Hyde
She been out here playing both sides
[Verse 1]
Run it like a criminal, I am gonna rise (Run it)
Take it to the bank, we like Bonnie and Clydе (Robbin’)
All my life I thought she was my ride or diе (Forever)
Now it’s just me, but I'ma survive
She took my knife, stabbed me ‘bout a hunnid times
Rich bitches turn to snitches, I ain’t even got a dime
Sweet talkin’ playa, live a life of lies
Chasin’ highs, in disguise, no soul in they eyes
I need your loyalty if you wanna ride with me (Ride with me)
Pull up Brink’s truck, we commit a robbery (Robbery)
Hit the jackpot, we could win the lottery (Lottery)
Rags turn to riches, all green as far as I can see (I can see)
It’s been a different kind of struggle, so they judgin’ me
Everywhere I go, everybody sayin’ something
Lookin’ at my waist, and they hatin’ ‘cause it’s Gucci
Look at my wrist, this my I-ain’t-got-the-time piece
[Chorus]
Stressin’ like we ‘bout to start trial
We didn’t do the crime, but serve time
Keepin’ them apart, Apartheid
She been out here playin’ both sides
Foot up on the gas, monoxide
Never finish last, ‘cause we climb
Keepin’ it together like Jekyll and Hyde
She been out here playing both sides
[Verse 2]
Foot up on the gas, now we movin’ fast
Never lookin’ back, tunnel vision like a running back (Running back)
We was like a train runnin’ off the tracks
We had too much slack, now we never ever goin’…
Now I’m an animal, caged in a zoo
Didn’t know what to do, just cut the chains loose
Changin’ every station, lookin’ through the radio
Hoppin’ on a new bull like she at the rodeo
Grew up fast with no father
But my momma drove me harder
I did my own thing with music to be stronger
I always wanted to be different, not a monster
I wanna lead the children, so they could prosper
I wanna heal the world, Cairo the doctor
God turned my heart of stone to a heart of gold
Despite the pain of my past, I still love her
[Chorus]
Stressin’ like we ‘bout to start trial
We didn’t do the crime, but serve time
Keepin’ them apart, Apartheid
She been out here playin’ both sides
Foot up on the gas, monoxide
Never finish last, ‘cause we climb
Keepin’ it together like Jekyll and Hyde
She been out here playing both sides
