proper john – the story of the other side lyrics

Loading...

i lost pieces of my soul in the battle of my mind
my twin selves wanted full control to tell the story of the other side
and this is what they told
same story as i’m getting old
we’re tryna turn glitter to gold
and telling all our homies don’t fold now

i grew up gringo lonely on fringe
i had a lotta friends who ain’t had a lot of friends
some homies by the bay, and some rats from the ridge
drinking on c-n-ls, flipping off the bridge we were kids

stealing bread and buying beer with our braces on
no fake id just put our sweet faces on
used to fill up on the munchies but my heart was hungry
knew an angel from perrine who maybe coulda loved me

she sent me t-tties on the flip phone
and told me send her pics of my d-ck when i get home
never had a chance to hook up, she moved out town
i think she took her life, they ain’t no traces of her now
damm
rest in peace
and if you up there there’s another angel on a jet ski
tell him hi and go find my dog
tell her that she helped me through the fog
when kharma hit my family like a bomb

walk, to the cvs it wasn’t long
i used to cop cheetos and some oj for the bong
and we’d smoke and write songs to try to save lives
thinking back to that i think i saved mine

my friends brother was the oldest like me
and then he died
and i related to that suicide
we had the same name spelled the same way
coulda been the same day with my namesake

i lost pieces of my soul in the battle of my mind
my twin selves wanted full control to tell the story of the other side
and this is what they told
same story as i’m getting old
we’re tryna turn glitter to gold
and telling all our homies don’t fold now

we were the kids eating chicken by the tree
telling cliques that the kegger’s weren’t free
n chargin’ every car a fee
with a german shepherd chasing out police
while we partied with the daughter of their chief in peace

and as the hearts got scarred, all the drugs got harder
for the kids in the school yard and we’d stand guard
at the gateway and every time it gave way to higher highs
we saw their eyes and what they’d say

i lost pieces of my soul in the battle of my mind
my twin selves wanted full control to tell the story of the other side
and this is what they told
same story as i’m getting old
we’re tryna turn glitter to gold
and telling all our homies don’t fold now
