Steel City

Kazzer

Steel city ain’t it gritty like it down and dirty rippin down one way streets, 
Everybody workin hard by the smoke stacks and the mass factories, 
Late shift when then light dips, big ships land in the north end, 
Studebaker plant revamp, off to Beasley Park gonna breakdance, 
Yo bar fights and the cold nights and the crowds hype and it don’t stop, 
Titties in the Picadilly close call, Queen street heard a gunshot, 
Under rated in a state of mind, respect gets you past fine lines, 
Where the train tracks and the bright lights meet heavy metal goin state side 

Late for work, pockets hurt, broke and uneasy 
Love and hate feelin the stress for no reason, 
When the steel city’s callin but the tanks runnin low 
Midnight express then I’m back on the road again 
Late for work, pockets hurt, broke and uneasy 
Love and hate feelin the stress for no reason, 
When the steel city’s callin but the tanks runnin low 
Midnight express then I’m back on the road again 

Quick, headed up the Kenilworth cut ten minutes to the corner store when, 
Speed trap and the lights flash cause he got me goin one ten, 
I was like fuck should’ve paid attention not to mention unpaid parking tickets damn, 
Just waitin for the next pay check set a court date make a stand and, train like a mad man, work like a dog, heart of a lion then, 
Go to the last breath, cheat death, rest, do it all again 
Head to the gym make a lot of gains work through the pain, 
Aim for the rings, runnin down side streets where the sweat stains and the pot holes never end 

Beer brewin trouble lurkin in the shadows, walls of graffiti everywhere, 
Cherries flash make a dash think fast, clear, and I’ll never show an ounce of fear, 
And I’m always low on cash, buy some shit I really can’t afford, 
Cool but it won’t last, more money for the old ford restored 
Drive late at night like a maniac, hit the highway, head south am I really comin back, now 
You can’t forget where you come from no lyin 
Yo Steel city ain’t it gritty like it down and dirty where you fuckin find me
