“Other Side was created in loving memory of Jason Cortez. In addition to assuming the roles of film director, screenwriter, photographer, Twitch streamer, and music enthusiast, Jason is a husband, brother, son, and best friend to people of all walks of life. For so many people at once, he was an advocate, a cheerleader, and a mentor. Although his life was taken from him, he lives on through the hearts of those who remember him.” -Scream Geronimo
Verse 1
Feel like my energy waning I can't even explain it
Come with me to the cemetery to see where the pain is
Hard to describe it as draining, the tears are limitless
Images on my mind are too vivid to frame
Life is but a game until you hitting your homies tellin the news
And they don't even register what you tell 'em, they need the proof
Like maybe his phone is dead or maybe they was confused
Until the reporter breaking the story, that lit the fuse for me
It took the weight of your body to make it true for me
I guess seeing meant believing the verdict was final
But even then I looked around expecting your arrival
Cause you been around for everything, your presence was vital
And then I think about the medic that checked for your vitals
There's not a thing I wouldn't give to request your revival
Then I get angry as the rest of the cycle progresses
Then I remember not to let all the energy spiral
The lesson is your memory is a bridge
Connecting me to my bro, suppress it I never did
I know the pain is a testament to the kid
And everything that he gave, he forever lives
Hook
I wonder if the raindrops falling from the sky
Ever feel afraid as they plummet through time
I wonder what awaits us, but I won't cry
Till the day I see the gates, see you on the other side
I'll be okay cause I got an angel guiding my way
From the other side
Heavy is the weight, Imma carry that thing till I'm taking my place
On the other side
[Repeat]
Verse 2
Man behind the lens... Back in high school
Was never seen without the camera, you were fantasizing then
Championing your homies, you would pass the time with them
Such a mastermind but had the time to stand behind your friends
I see his face in every battle I was in
Only metric that had mattered was I had to see him grin
But the stand out character was him
Would I'd do to hear em laughing once again
Said I know you thanking the academy, what an immaculate role
With a heart crafted in gold, they done shattered the mold
If ever critics came after the bro
Yeah they could point and they could shoot but can't capture your soul
Yeah... If ever critics came after the bro
They could never ever capture your soul
Even though I feel the pain, I know my bro headed home
Though he's on another plane, I should never feel alone
Send a message to my bro, out of everything you wrote
Know the life you led is the greatest story ever told
Even when I feel the pain, I know my bro's headed home
Though he's on another plane, I don't ever feel alone
Send a message to my bro, out of everything you wrote
Know the life you lead is the greatest story ever told
And Imma let em know
[Hook]
