lyrics

Verse 1:

Pink Floyd on the system, you can say a kids zoning/
Never stressed on the merry go, you can see a kids frozen/
Chillin, I'm like alright here we go, I'll be with you in a moment/
Don't adjust your stereo, stay clear while I split this game open/

I know these lames all bogus/
Wanna keep me down, now pretend liked they know us/
Still we ain't even notice/
Quiet on the set, man I'm rainman focused/

Quick glance over both shoulders, eyes wide open, never show emotions/
Just know that we ain't boastin, before I coast to coast it, riding roller coasters/
We're standing on the boulevard, but I know her sites set on the Roosevelt/
Still ignorance is bliss, so we stay high when they shoot us down/

Wall St in a kid sites/
The takeover, I'll take flight/
Shakedown those that never take time/
The big payback, time for me to take mine/

(Chorus x 1)

Whatever it turns out to be/
I'm a take it and just run with it/
'Cos I don't hear 'em when they speak to me/
So you know I'm having fun with it/

I put this city on my shoulders/
I'm just living what they taught us/
This is life as we know it/
'Cos no walls gonna hold us/

Verse 2:

I'm a product of July 4th/
Independent till I fly north/
It's no lie, no ride see I skywalk/
Give me a first class seat when I'm on board/

I need everything I ever dreamt/
I got a dream that is heaven sent/
I'm the best secret that was ever kept/
They want me to take a seat but I'll never rest/

This is heaven in a mindstate/
Therefore I took hell on a blind date/
I been living in my shell for a few days/
I been tripping off the fact maybe rhyme pays/

They say my lyrics lacks substance/
A few critics got a problem/
Visions of south by southwest/
No matter where I land, still Melbourne on my chest/

In the last few years, all my blood sweat and tears been poured to a CD/
And in the last few years, I probably seen all of my dreams in a deep sleep/
See I can't stand still, they try tell me chill but they know that it ain't me/
before i jump from edge, one last look back followed by a deep breathe/

(Breathe)

Chorus x 2
