Burn City (ft. Kye) (Explicit)

Burn City(ft. Kye) (Explicit) - Pegz

They say life's not worth living in Burn City

Work 40 hours a week until you turn 60

Earn fifty grand a year

Debt for eternity

No sleep no rest is a certainty

We choose to adhere persuing careers

Like border men on parades

The brute with sincere

Losing our rights

Using our fears

Burn City

One day I'll be moving from here

Going back to the cave

The embrionic stage

Before the black clouds and atomic rain

Before the black wave on Boxing Day

Before the man-made economic plague

Burn City lost her way

She's not the same

She forgot about the streets we populate

So we compensate in a lot of ways

And intoxicate ourselves to stop the pain

Burn City

What happened to the passion we had

I know you like the back of my hand

Burn City

I told you I'd be packing my bags

If you ever turned your back on my fam

Burn City

That's the sound of an angry crowd singing

Burn this b**ch to the ground

Burn burn burn Burn City

Yeah I see bluecollars sweating

Their families stressing

I see whitecollars on anti-depressants

I see unemployed looking anxiously reckless

Everybody's tryna manage gravities pressures

Has the standard of living gradually risen

We're like

Battery hens

Mechanically driven

And it's hard to explain

Like humanities vision

And who's to blame for the planets condition

Everyday another chapter is written

With passionate lyrics

Another character witness is tragically missing

Another young kid's landed in prison

We all slip through the cracks

And abandon the system

Burn City you don't own the streets

We closed our minds

And postponed our dreams

You sold us out and promoted greed

But you won't defeat my people's only beef

Burn City

What happened to the passion we had

I know you like the back of my hand

Burn City

I told you I'd be packing my bags

If you ever turned your back on my fam

Burn City

That's the sound of an angry crowd singing

Burn this b**ch to the ground

Burn burn burn Burn City

We lose confidence glued to computer monitors

World's apart within a few kilometres

Anonymous expats drifting through the metropolis

Close my eyes and vision a new apocalypse

Revenge of the everyday folk

Burn down the city and regenerate growth

Watch the flames rise like the end of Waco

Skyscrapers fall in a breath of grey smoke

What happened to the corner stone

You don't celebrate or support your own

There's no tolerance to those who walk below

Burn City

The city that I call my home

Burn City

What happened to the passion we had

I know you like the back of my hand

Burn City

I told you I'd be packing my bags

If you ever turned your back on my fam

Burn City

That's the sound of an angry crowd singing

Burn this b**ch to the ground

Burn burn burn Burn City

Well I made it this far

Built it all from scratch

When all things were looking bad

You and me needed to step back

So I gripped all my senses

And I pushed on through

And I got out of that mess

And I saw the light
