East Ridge Ballad Lyrics by Rex White

The Sidney C. Project

2017

[Verse 1]
Was private schooled as a child
Til 3rd grade, remember vivid
When my pops lost his job
My moms too I use to hate when she would come and substitute at my school
But now I get it she just needed the loot
I'd prolly have done it too, man
That year was a domino, I'm somewhat effected, it kept getting hectic. Proceed and accept it
My lane changed and detoured off the highway to heaven
I wrote this while drivin I'm swerving. I'm sorry I miss riding backseat, my gameboy out I was playin Atari
This ain't a game boy now I'm living this story
I write it down, find a beat, hit record and destroy it
And I ain't fillin applications out to be and employee
And I ain't askin for a favor honestly I don't need em
I might not make it independent but at least I got freedom
I might not make it after all but I still got dreams
Just in case this plane crash I still got my wings
Yeah yeah
[Hook]
I bet that I can fly like you
I bet that I get high like you
My wager increased, my life's a gamble I get by like you
Ain't no tellin what I might do
Yeah yeah
I bet that I can fly like you
I bet that I get high like you
My wager increased, my life's a gamble
I get by like you
Roll the dice and even if I lose
Yeah yeah
[Verse 2]
I'm alone after dark
I use to pull the bike out up at East Ridge and ride to the park
Upgraded to 90s Buick but sometimes it ain't start
Borrow the Camry from my mother pick up D and then and spark
My moms fell out, I'm off the pack and couldn't get the smell out
She say if you get caught up don't hit me up for the bail out
And I hope I'll never need to for real
Honestly I'd call you first ma' imma need you for real
It's honesty inside my verses I don't need the appeal
I bring the soul and make the perfect shoes they need me to fill
They prolly over priced
I gave you 5 decents songs and they know I'm nice
I light the plane hope you ain't fraid of heights
Yeah yeah
[Hook]
I bet that I can fly like you
I bet that I get high like you
My wager increased, my life's a gamble I get by like you
Ain't no tellin what I might do
Yeah.yeah
I bet that I can fly like you
I bet that I get high like you
My wager increased, my life's a gamble
I get by like you
Roll the dice and even if I lose
