Lyrics A Tale From The Northside - Beneath The Sky

A Tale From The Northside

Once upon a time down in Northside
I was being held at gunpoint
By a couple of young low lives
Feeling like they were some badass street soldiers
As they pointed their weapon at me and my friends
They told us to give them the cash
Or kiss our asses goodbye with just one gun blast
I have never in my life been so terrified
I have never felt this alive
What was their motive?
What was their need?
To be willing to take a life for the fuckin' green
Feeling like they were some badass street soldiers
As they pointed their weapon at me and my friends
They told us to give them the cash
Or kiss our asses goodbye with just one gun blast
I have never in my life been so terrified
I have never felt this alive
Staring down the barrel of a gun
My life could of been done
What was their motive?
What was their need?
To be willing to take a life for the fuckin' green
Never did I think this could happen to me
To be a dead motherfucker in the 5−1-3!
