Wrote this last night.....

Every burb differs from the next the city got respect
alleyways lit up from writers as they bomb their text
Weekend nights constant threats,
alcohol turns the placid to fighters fire up with drunken boxers breath
Diverse cultures but still full of racists full of hatred
people trying to stay the course walking on the crooked pavement
Hookers look for vacant spots to make the cash
Can't call a crooked cop if they got raped cause it's too late for that
On the news creating wack theories terrorist attack
Apparently we're next on the list but they're burying the facts
In fact the fact is drugs is second currency
Some cats attacked with bats you reckon nothing free
Lot's of greed too many emcees and not enough fans
Fuck Rudd and his Government aint got enough plans
I rock a sun tan hot summers but winters brutal
I love my city Inspiration when I spit it truthful

I'm from a city full of bright lights and dark shadows
The strong and witty also knife fights and hard fellows
During the day streets are quite nice and calm mellow
switch to night can be quite strife the heart's shallow

It's where the Mob war put us on the global map
every local cat raps their wak quotes and tracks
I take a note of that when I pen flows to pads
Cops pick on the people so they meet there quota plan
Evokes emotions that come from the city's rhythm
Sometimes pity victims locked up in a gritty prison
It's a shitty system moved some places bland
But I ride a train or tram till my brain expands
Take a stand cause we need revolutions
As I see executions I breathe the pollution
Concrete and the movement I move with it's Melbourne
music we're doing Improving this album
Others assuming an outcome wearing their masks
Scared of the fast pace of life tear it apart
But this place I was raised in is kept in my heart
Destined to last no doubt been impressed from the start


The hero and the coward both feel the same thing, but the hero uses his fear, projects it onto his opponent, while the coward runs. It's the same thing, fear, but it's what you do with it that matters. Cus D'Amato
