[Intro: The Weeknd & Daniel Wilson]
Ooo, ooo, ooo, ooo
Uh-uh, uh, uh, uh-uh, uh, yeah, like...
[Verse 1: The Weeknd]
I ran out of tears when I was 18
So nobody made me but the main streets
'Cause too many people think they made me
Well, if they really made me then replace me
Homeless to Forbes List, these n***as bring no stress
I feel like Moses, I feel like I'm chosen
And if you ain't my n***a then your girl single to me
I don't give a damn if a n***a said he knew me
Grew up with no father so nobody ever "son" me
My flow too sick, Kevin Costner couldn't touch me
I know you wish that nobody ever love me
I feel useless when I'm never making money
Well, this the life we always fantasized
Rich folk problem through a Queen Street n***a's eyes
Every time you see me pulling up in Aventadors
Just know we been grinding on them sidewalks
[Hook: The Weeknd & Daniel Wilson]
Sidewalks saved my life
Ooo
They don't ever lie
Ooo
Sidewalks saved my life
Ooo
They showed me all the signs
Ooo
[Post-Hook: Daniel Wilson]
They don't let me down (Ooo)
But they lead me on (Ooo)
And they don't let me down (Ooo)
But they lead me on (Ooo)
And they lead me on
[Verse 2: Kendrick Lamar & Daniel Wilson]
Say, say, say
I come from murder one, brung late night melee
Say, say, say
We hung all summer, sprung mattress with bae bae
Say, say, say
Trippin' off Dyke, and my name strike with pay day
Say, say, say
Flippin' blue lightning, tightening, strapped with AK
Say, say, say
OG one, told me one, show me one, eight ways
How to segue
p**y, power, profit in headache
I reminisce my life innocence
Or life innocent
Or life intimate, with fame
Like when repent
Like when we women up
Gon' get it, good game
She wanna hang with a Starboy
Ooo
The sun and the moon and star, boy
Astronomer, anonymous
I line 'em up, grind 'em up, there's nine of us
And five of us are probably f**ed
Ooo
She mollied up, I tallied up all the parts, boy
Twenty legs, arms, head (head)
Head, head, more head (head)
Oh God, bless the dead (yah)
Ooo
I'm livin' life, high off life
I wear my chokes off to bed
I'm the greatest n***a, why you so scared to say it?
I wanna rock, I wanna rock, (Ooo) I wanna cop more land
I never stop
I wanna quick advance on a bill if it ain't one
Break everything, I'm a hustler, came from
[Hook: The Weeknd & Daniel Wilson]
Sidewalks saved my life
Ooo
They don't ever lie
Ooo
Sidewalks saved my life
Ooo
They showed me all the signs
Ooo
[Post-Hook: Daniel Wilson]
They don't let me down
But they lead me on
And they don't let me down
But they lead me on
And they lead me on
