[Intro]
Yeah, it's that Southside story, from struggle to glory, UGK vibes, let’s ride.
[Verse 1]
From the blocks where the heat don't ever cool
Raised by the struggle, we learned the rules
Racist eyes try to block my shine
But our grind, it only got better with time
Hustlin' hard in the Texas heat
Turntables scratchin', the city beats
Momma worked twice, daddy wasn’t round
But we made a way, turned it all around
[Chorus]
We came up from the south, where the pain was real
From the hate and the struggle, to the mass appeal
Black kings risin', this our time to feel
Success from the ashes, the south's real deal
[Verse 2]
They tried to hold us back, with their ignorant lies
But our will was stronger, reaching for the skies
From the projects to the stages, we took flight
Now the South's on top, shining bright at night
Turntable spins, scratchin’ tales of the past
Every beat and bar, a story built to last
Never forget where we started from
South Houston streets, now we number one
[Chorus]
We came up from the south, where the pain was real
From the hate and the struggle, to the mass appeal
Black kings risin', this our time to feel
Success from the ashes, the south's real deal
[Bridge]
Through the storms and the rain, we kept our heads high
Black excellence rising, no limit to the sky
From hate to hope, we rewritten the script
Our story and our triumph, forever equipped
[Verse 3]
Now cash flow heavy, but the roots stay deep
Honor the streets and the promises we keep
Hustle in the blood, grind in the soul
Southside legends, taking full control
Scratchin’ the vinyl, mixin’ the vibe
This is our anthem, Houston’s pride
From pain to power, from fear to fame
Black voices loud, remember the name
[Chorus]
We came up from the south, where the pain was real
From the hate and the struggle, to the mass appeal
Black kings risin', this our time to feel
Success from the ashes, the south's real deal
[Outro]
Southside rise, forever strong
Through the fight, we belong
From the dirt to the sky, our legacy lives on
Houston’s own, the South’s dawn
