I'm from the city with the malls and the detailed directories All my friends are dropouts and retail celebrities The kid in the back, yeah, he works at AA But did you know that every Sunday he goes to AA, hey I wonder what they'd say, "He's the LCD like DFA" She's his GF, he's working on a BFA Now he's making news like C.F. Kane Tryna make a move, transitional pace Drinking Canadian Club in Canadian clubs Our brains used to float on Arabian rugs Two out of three wishes is to feel less listless We were the troubled kids, all concerned with existence With each and every promise left unfettered No one that I know buys records So I keep a record of that whenever I record A menace comes over the city And I can't get over it Sometimes it seems too gritty Doesn't mean we can't be friends And hope's name was Anyah, way back then Sure, I live here but at least I have friends Go up too fast, you might get the bends Bean-counters for spins, I sleep above trends See in those days, I was dead on arrival The rappers hated me because I didn't read the bible And just because I'd thought the Source had fallen off They just kept on chopping their blocks, the little curb servers Certain persons got no way out It's just the boys on the bus, yeah, we know how to scout it City kid, what you tellin' me about it? Got a rain-stick trick, power generation I will not be afraid, of my habitation Life on the Avenue of Nations Hope diamond gripping, slope sliding, slipping I wanna make you feel different A menace comes over the city And I can't get over it Sometimes it seems too gritty Doesn't mean we can't be friends And I know you found someone new, I can't get over you
