Look, all it takes is a road, two sides on it
Put some houses down this road on the left and right of it
Get some money give one side enough so they are rich
Give a one percent to the other side

Bring in the private schools
Bring in the fancy cars
Bring in a uni, best in the land
Make sure that it's only ours
We Bring in the cleaners from them sides and leave them minimum wage
I'm not posh my daddy only owns two businesses
(Shut the f*ck up you dickhead)

Only if you knew what we've been through
Felt like the city weren't ours
Some kids at my school don't know there's a river here
Cause their mum didn't feel a part of cambs
As a kid I used to stair out the window holding an empty can
Thinking why do are neighbors have so much more then us?

Look All it takes is a city with a hidden divide
How can it be fair that the ward you live in decides your school culture what your fate is
Life expectancy and wages
If your friends are on the county lines or flicking through the pages

Don't you dare say that we are neeks
Man I vape and smoke that weed
Ay what why you trying to be who you not
You wasn't forced into this like me
It can't be that bad you're lying that's cap I don't want to hear that you see

Look your stuck in a bubble my part of Cambridge ain't like yours
You ain't ever had mail from the council saying that we going to knock this down
You ain't ever sat awake in your room all cold with electric out
And everyone you met that ain't from here thinks you're this privileged child
When realistically in Cambridge your the odd one out
(When realistically in Cambridge your the odd one out)
(When realistically in Cambridge your the odd one out)
(When realistically in Cambridge your the odd one out)
The odd one out

Grew up in a city that's filled with wealth
It's lovely yeah but a mile away it feels like another world
I went two schools so different so distant that I had to change myself
I went round people fancy houses pretending I had that as well
I was basically putting an act on
I didn't want to feel so different
But most kids here put an act on because they feel like somethings missing
Inequality looses unity that's trust lost and community

Look the pain of the divide
See why youths are carrying knifes
I know it's cambs not south London but it spread with no surprise
Down in London there is help but round here it's hidden more
Seen the tourists and the students but they forgot about the poor

Forgot Bout the locals some got kicked from east London Gentrification
Polite word for saying f*ck off now
Forgot bout the struggling who don't get a say or nothing
Turned down for discussion in an isolated hidden town
At school the vibe it's toxic
Everyone does shit to be rated
Half the lads that act like they struggling live in a fancy crib and they hate it
Remember the side you on remember you ain't experienced shit
Remember across the street there's a kid who'd die to switch

To the mayor of Cambridge
Why is the life expectancy in Kings Hedges nearly fifteen years than West Chesterton which is less than a mile away?
Why do the the top six percent of earners take home nearly ten times the bottom twenty percent?
Why is Cambridge our beautiful historic important city the most unequal in the UK?
