Around here we got enemies that’s locked and loaded
In a system that everyday get’s more eroded
If you build upon the sand you gon end up moded
Before you get a word in they already reloaded
You see some people they just chase the drama
Others baptized in fire I call it trauma
It raised me like a mama
The opposite of drama
Creeps in at night as your laying in the cama
Can’t sleep waking up in sweaty pajamas
You could feel the heat bubbling like a sauna
The aroma the stench you can smell it in the air
As a kid I tried to run but it was already there
Round here that puppet master pulls on a daily
Plays me like an apple with a snake that’s scaly
Poisoning the babies and killing they bravery
Guitar sized problems used to look like ukelele’s

Around here
Around here they got shots inject the fear
Over there some living on a wing and a prayer
Around here lot’s of campaigns to smear
Is it fair? Oh contrare you better beware yeah
We in a glass house with a bull and a bear
The world’s getting tired acting like we got a spare
All that we desire doesn’t seem what it appears
What you seeing over there looks the same over here
And what you seeing over there looks the same over here
And what you seeing over there looks the same over here yeah

It’s a bronco battle let me see you in the saddle
Don’t become the sickness have gun and will travel
The pavement is thick in this land of the rich
Water is life so they laying down the pipe
Lot’s of traffic so they be taking kids in the night
No struggle especially when we living in a bubble
Chips is the next switch now we in trouble
Native hands can’t even touch native lands
Meanwhile the glitzy party til they ditzy
While the poor keep it moving like a gypsy
I let the bullshit miss me
Cuz I got Spidey senses and I ain’t talkin itsy bitsy
Chem trails in the skies above us
They might as well spell out that they don’t love us
Make it great again? But no ones looking at the state we in
Kings and crooks to keep the rook shook

Around here
Around here they got shots inject the fear
Over there some living on a wing and a prayer
Around here lot’s of campaigns to smear
Is it fair? Oh contrare you better beware yeah
We in a glass house with a bull and a bear
The world’s getting tired acting like we got a spare
All that we desire doesn’t seem what it appears
What you seeing over there looks the same over here
What you seeing over there looks the same over here
What you seeing over there looks the same over here yeah

If your from around here you reap what you sow
Around here you pay what you owe
Around here your food for the crows
Around here the flowers grow slow
Around here
