This is the 9 side
Beatfreakz

Don't let me run tru' with a bally (Bally)
You won't know it's me
Why you dey run with my money? (Money)
When you know it's peak
When I see you on ten toes, G
Don't say that you know me
Tuck your chain and Rollie
'Cah this is the 9 side

Do I tight the kid that looks the happiest
You know I was aggy, road, and ballies climbing into homes
I was vexed moving like I had to rex round the block
If I left the gloves at home, I climbed the window with the socks
With Skizzy you heard, shit we come up since kids rid the bird
We never get the credit for the shit we deserve
Now I'm fixing my credit while on set, your war is curb
Did everyone forget ay-yay-yay-yay-yay-yay CEO
I came up off Babe one tape, 6:30, did you see me grow?

I'm really tryna put this bally on, grab a don
And If a nigga put the bally on, adios, carat don
Carry on, you don't know what were on
I'm really from the 9 where my guy got him gone
See I used to have the boots with the spikes going hatricks
Now I rock the Loubs with the spikes, check the fabric
Gyal fantastic, jelly-bombastic
Move it to the left then the right, then I grab this
Still I gotta do up this road
You don't wanna see my guy, eh ay-yay-yay-yay-yay-yay
Me say eh ay-yay-yay-yay-yay-yay

Don't let me run tru' with a bally (bally)
You won't know it's me
Why you dey run with my money? (Money)
When you know it's peak
When I see you on ten toes, G
Don't say that you know me
Tuck your chain and Rollie
'Cah this is the 9 side

From the 9 to the 10 side
Ain't been the same since my friend died
Balaclava I put my bedside
Brown skin ting, I tell her spread wide
They don't even smoke but the red eye
Made a hundred bags in the end side
You can't tell man about dead lines
Throw away your food and your dead lines
Me, I make headlines
My watch, one bag, ten times
Sorry but your better off next time
The weed's from Cali'
My plugs Afghani
I'm hated by a couple but I'm love by gyally
And mans retarded so put down the bally
Swarmz keeps coming with a hox white alley

Don't let me run tru' with a bally (bally)
You won't know it's me
Why you dey run with my money? (Money)
When you know it's peak
When I see you on ten toes, G
Don't say that you know me
Tuck your chain and Rollie
'Cah this is the 9 side

I got my Xan' dough from this trap not rap
Gyal think I blow but I'm still in the flats
And this ain't PRS, I been slinging this pack
Need a month clean run just to but some waps
Bro pivot when he whip it
I'm still in the kitchen grab my ching and my bally
Leave a paigon missing
Man know about gang, go to the cams
If I weren't by man, then broski did it
Ayy, the amount of time that we stepped out
My opps either been splashed, whacked or they're dead now
On the opp block where the waps get test out
In west now, 5 bills on a crep, shout

Big twenty, I'm a drippers
Still do it same way, I don't care if I'm in trainers or in slippers
Made you topic of the news
All because we left your face same colour as the bottom of my shoes
Still doin' man same way little bro
Shoulda listened to Swarmz and grab the bally, but he did it baitface
New year, new selection
'Bout to buy some new protection
I can't believe I put fourty on my shoe collection

Still rolling with a sweet one
Passenger side, she a peak one
And yeah it get crazy round the east side
But you ain't cut for it, so you can't come these sides

Don't let me run tru' with a bally (bally)
You won't know it's me
Why you dey run with my money? (Money)
When you know it's peak
When I see you on ten toes, G
Don't say that you know me
Tuck your chain and Rollie
'Cah this is the 9 side
