Wayside Lyrics

I've been chillin' down by the wayside, livin' life on the edge

Smokin' up herb by the lakeside like I'm not in the red

Back on grind by the day time to the late night

Hardly seein' my bed

I'm out on the chase while they sleepin instead

I can dream wide awake so I'm gettin' ahead

Wait, I'm gettin' ahead of myself, I'm ahead of my time

Like comin' to work before even applying

I had my position before they could try it

Osiris, the side of the siren, the silent assassin, amassing the opus

All of this flow, I could walk across the ocean

Open the modem and flow through the matrix

Cause all of this fakeness they feed us is makeshift

And money is printed, so how can you waste it

All of my people still clockin' the day shift

Don't die by the dollar, it's cool if you save it

Life ain't what you make cause it's what you make it, yeah

Wait, life ain't what you make cause it's what you make it, yeah

Yeah, yeah

I've been chillin' down by the wayside, livin' life on the edge

Smokin' up herb by the lakeside like I'm not in the red

Back on grind by the day time to the late night

Hardly seein' my bed

I'm out on the chase while they sleepin instead

I can dream wide awake so I'm gettin' ahead

I been sittin' on the dock of the bay

More like sittin' on a rock by the lake

I go to the point with a joint just to clear my mind

Write my rhymes, meditate and medicate

Lately life been hittin' like a heavyweight

And a nigga steady lookin' for a better way to navigate the pathway

Scurry in the rat race, celebrate the good days, appreciate the bad days

Tell me what's high without low

Tell me what's shine without dull

It's all in perspective, sometimes I neglect the fact life is a blessing for sure

It's easy to take it for granted

But I'ma just keep myself planted

Ten toes in the dirt till I go in the earth

I'ma put it in the work till I own what I'm worth

I've been chillin' down by the wayside, livin' life on the edge

Smokin' up herb by the lakeside like I'm not in the red

Back on grind by the day time to the late night

Hardly seein' my bed

I'm out on the chase while they sleepin instead

I can dream wide awake so I'm gettin' ahead
