Sidewalks Lyrics – The Weeknd
In “Sidewalks,” Abel and Kendrick use sidewalks as a metaphor for their path from humble beginnings to fame and fortune. Both The Weeknd and Kendrick grew up in less-than-ideal settings. Abel was born in Scarborough, Ontario, Canada, an area with one of the highest crime rates in Greater Toronto, while Kendrick grew up in Compton, California, one of the deadliest cities in the world.| Song Name : | Sidewalks |

I ran out of tears when I was eighteenSo nobody made me but the main streets‘Cause too many people think they made meWell if they really made me, then replace meHomeless to Forbes list, these niggas bring no stressI feel like Moses, I feel like I’m chosenAnd if you ain’t my nigga then your girl single to meI don’t give a damn if a nigga said he knew meGrew up with no father so nobody ever “son” meMy flow too sick, Kevin Costner couldn’t touch meI know you wish that nobody ever loved meI feel useless when I’m never making moneyWell, this the life we always fantasizedRich folk problem through a Queen Street nigga’s eyesEvery time you see me pulling up in AventadorsJust know we been grinding on them sidewalks
