Intercities

i’m not living in an intercity

but i wish that I could bring it with me

take a way the litter and the little kiddies

and you got yourself a more enjoyable new york or philly

 

a photo framed in the middle of the living room

belittled by its natural existent different view

I wish I could do - something to fix you

but you’re beautiful inside, and I know it’s true

 

I been blue, since up, I grew

out in the sewers there’s a hundred thousand pettigrews

but I could never wish for a better view

I put my trust in all these streets to direct me to you

 

its set in stone, but it starts with bricks

just remember that in every single dark abyss

is a street light, and if my feet could type

they would tell you forever ‘cause they never forget the

street life

 

-chorus-

 

Day by day, the trees are going down

and all i can do is keep my feet on the ground

and hope I don’t get knocked down with em

but for now, I’ll just hide inside my grandma’s kitchen

 

and when you’re living like a kid, living’s all there is

singing, and swinging never even thinking to call it quits

crawling to talking to walking all of a sudden we’re all like this

wishing we could live without this lack of lavish lawlessness

 

Sprawled in offices is where we’re doomed to be

but that fate’s not true to me

I’m due to be dubiously doing what i do best, lucratively

it’s not what you could have been but where your dreams at,

Aladdin’t do was never live life like a street rat

 

 

how can you beat that?

born and raised by where each one of my feet are at

went from a point guard, to a score adjuster

a shot in the dark, found more than just a

 

-redundant chorus-
